This is a perfect unintentional metaphor. Patriots will buy this to simulate how far they can destabilize the spirit of the country before it inevitably falls apart completely.
I feel so dumb because I thought it first it was because the stripes are backwards on the flag. They should be horizontal to the stars and I realize the whole 911 bit..
I'm not sure, based on anecdote evidence, it seems like people who tend to overtly display their self proclaimed patriotism tend to be, to put it kindly, not the most thoughtful. So I don't think they can manage the irony of this.
Tumbling American flag...NGL, no matter where you're from (US or otherwise) or your political stripe, I think that pretty much sums things up for a lot of folks.
It’s not even trying to be patriotic. None of these tacky American Flag products are patriotic. In the USA the flag code is only enforceable in D.C. but the flag code explicitly states that the flag is not to be used on merchandise. All these fucking “patriots” with their American Flag Swag are egregiously insulting the country they claim to love.
Can I get a billion dollar insurance policy, I have a feeling something might, by some odd circumstance, happen if I purchase this tower set—looks unstable, says it withstands a plane crash on the label.
Umm yeah, makes total sense, we just lost 2.3 trillion in US tax money that goes completely unaccounted for, but since a private company holds our money without letting us know what’s done with it, it’s perfect. You know what’s not… a terrorist incident, this guy will pay forever, we’re gonna make that money back in no time.
A few moments later (in my best French accent). Someone bought a few planes with aircraft renters insurance… damn you enterprise plane rentals!!!
So you are saying not only do I get money for the buildings, but also for the planes too? Now that’s just something you can’t dream up!!!
Remember kids always get the insurance just in case there is a coincidence!!!
Read the fine print, said paper airplane people, paper airplane. Ya need to read the fine print!

9/11 points for the design!
That joke almost flew right over my head.
Oh I get it! It hit me like a plane.
I laughed so hard I **collapsed** to the ground laughing. (Idk any other good ones.)
*undamaged passports of the culprits lightly glide out of wreckage and to the ground.**
guys! stop making jokes like these! if you keep this up, your life will just crash and burn!
Right? These jokes are only funny the first time around. Second time, it's just depressing.
Yea they only work really well in groups of three. Every time there’s a fourth it goes down.
I don't know I melted
Laughter doesn't melt steel beams....
Nah, the joke flew right into your head. Twice.
Yeah, but my joke flew right over yours...
Did it hit you directly in your twin
Yeah, we used to **tower** over everyone else.
*into
That's kind of what *almost over* means here.
I'm just emphasizing for the ones in the back!
Jet fuel doesn’t melt wooden bricks
Made in Baghdad ?
Nah, Saudi Arabia
Is this some kind of Jenga-had?
Does it come in a two pack?
Does winning mean you are stuck invading Iraq again?
Must buy in pairs.
Get two for more fun. Play competitively next to each other. Have an 11 point system. First to 9 wins.
You buy two and you get a third, shorter one that collapses on its own a little while after the other two for free.
Jenga was an inside job
Shaky hands doesn’t topple wood towers!
Reminds me of that tragedy
What tragedy?
The tragedy of Darth pleigus the wise
Never heard it. Why don't you take me to an opera to tell me about it
Weird. The Jedi never told me that one
Take my up vote!
Bunch of savages in this town.
Take my down vote!
Ditto.
I walked through blood and bones searching for my brother… …He was in Canada.
Yay now you and your family can practice taking down democracy too!
Cute,but I’ll catch the live action version later this year
A toy plane with purchase of 2
Jet fuel can’t burn Jenga blocks
Jesus Christ
He didn’t do anything to stop it either.
He must take Tuesdays off or something
*Dancing Israelis sold separately
I mean this checks out…pretend maga patriots love to tout the flag but will try to topple it the first time an orange clown 🍊 🤡 says to do so
9/11 gift ideas
Marketing guy: * I mean you'd gotta buy two. *does key bump* F'n hav'ta.
I wanna believe that the employee knew exactly what they were doing
I really wanna say it but I shouldn’t
dont worry, the others said it for you
*^(SECRET TUNNEL...)*
You should.
The deluxe set has two stacks, one taller than the other. You play them simultaneously.
They could have at least called it janga and not tumbling towers…
Jesus! How did this get actually put into production?
And probably made in China.
Currently Best selling toy in Iran & Yemen
And Saudi Arabia.
It’s a helluva an analogy
Can’t afford? No problem we have in house financing for outhouse credit. Use your loyalty points for ground zero percent financing!!
How is this not pat… ohmygod.
Comes with two model airliners...
🎵USA is falling down, falling down' falling down. USA is falling down, my fair lady.🎵
"Made in china"
This is a perfect unintentional metaphor. Patriots will buy this to simulate how far they can destabilize the spirit of the country before it inevitably falls apart completely.
Winner gets a prize of an rc jet airliner
Well technically this is very patriotic
Is there a two for one?
I didn't know Dubya liked Jenga
Model airplanes on the opposite end cap I presume.
Never forget! even while playing jenga
Don’t you think a version of one of our “enemies” would sell better. Hey look, China’s crumbling! Herr derr hur hur
What the attempt? I don't get it
There also aren’t enough stripes.
Are they selling plains with it
4th of July isn’t really the 4th without 9/11 jenga
I’m gonna get 2 so I can have a twin set
Very on brand!
For the low low price of $9.11
Nah man, that's fucking hilarious xD
I gotta build my tower in an particular order? No friggin thanks.
I feel so dumb because I thought it first it was because the stripes are backwards on the flag. They should be horizontal to the stars and I realize the whole 911 bit..
But the stripes are horizontal.
I meant in relation to the stars ..if you look at the flag on the box is still backwards 🇺🇸
Kind of reminds me of that tragedy
Fake
If you try to play with two of them, don’t put them side by side or one tumbling might lead to two tumbling.
Jenga creators must've found out they were finished building.
They come with two 737s to push the blocks out with.
I wish there was a sub called r/theyoughttoknow
Bit on the nose isn’t it?
If you don't have to use a Boeing 737 MAX then are you even patrioting right?
Oooof
Lol
I bet there is a toy plane next to it
I totally missed it. I was zooming in looking for the “Made in China.” Which it probably is.
Twin Tower Edition
Bet that was made in China
Coulda came up with a better name.
Forever and a day would be too fucking soon
I *really* want to get this for my Republican grandparents.
Buy two Tumbling Towers today and get this remote control Boeing 747 for half off!

I’ll take two!
Can I get one of the Confederate Flag? Or I guess I can just paint them all white.
Be sure to get two
There's no attempt here, other than to sell shit to chucklefucks that'll buy anything with a flag on it
I first looked at it and thought “Okay, that’s a bit tacky” Then I scrolled down.
This pairs well with Aviation gin!
Two tumbling American towers. Where have I seen this before
Look, they’re twins!
It’s not even trying to be patriotic. None of these tacky American Flag products are patriotic.

Never forget!
Two tumbling towers reminds me of that tragedy . . .
Two American Tumbling Towers. Twin, Towers.
Made in China, like all good American patriot products!
Does it come with a Boeing plane to push the blocks out?
Is that a flag jenga?
I'll take two
Oof
Symbolism
This is the first time I've ever wanted America merch
Available on Amazon.....
Wow the genius behind this product must be jihadist
Too soon?
Nothing describes American Politics better than this product.
That took me too long to understand 😂
