Never been into the cartoon. It's one of those things that I've heard about from so many different people that the pressure to watch and enjoy was too overwhelming to cope with. What little I did see of it (verry little) seemed absurd to the point of meaningless.
However, I find it hilarious that the little light displays that were placed all over Boston were mistaken for bombs. Not because of the problems it caused, but because of the reasonings inherent to the "terrorist" who would have placed them. Why would somebody placing a bomb advertise its location with a bunch of lights?
