Timber, his arms open.
Janeway, her coffee empty
Janeway and Tuvix, in the transporter
Star Trek?
All of those are in the format of how the Tamarians in Star Trek speak. They speak in metaphor, which completely fucks with the universal translator (since it's translating what they're saying rather than what they mean).
Just in case you were looking for context. Also know as, my little morning info dump.
Of course.
Sokath, his eyes uncovered!
Jenga, when the towers fell
They started making wooden airplanes

Holy cow, probably real happy it got released later. Though honestly it's funnier that ice cream guy went deep into the mountains to finally enjoy his cone in peace and still got robbed.
Mr bush there's a second looser
Idk why but twin tower jokes will never not be funny
You know. I got a massive amount of memes stored about that subject. I can't remember the exact number but it's between 1000 and 900.

Is it 911?

It really was the 9/11 of the Jenga industry.
a true sports car for the ages.
I wonder if this is actually real. I could see it.
The steep drop between 2000 and 2001 makes me wonder. The attack was nearer to the end of 2001.
I think that is because many people buy Jenga as a christmas present, which are usually bought after september.

I think you have your dates mixed up. These are sales from that calendar year. 2001 sales were down a good bit, so after the attack. 2002 sales was the big dip.
Maybe the winter holiday sale would normaly be substantial and therefore had a over proportional impact. 2002 was the more significant drop though.
I think this has more to do with the dot-com bust then 9/11.
Should've started selling commemorative Jenga 2-Packs.
Like how Beany Baby did a Princess Diana bear
Twin towers Sept 2001?
Correct.
