1. Nobody has ever strongarmed their way out of a US prison like that. A billion dollars can buy you a private army, but the US Army probably spends that much money on toothbrushes alone

  2. Splitting hairs here but it isn't really UK/British though, it's English. There isn't any tradition of Morris dancing in Scotland that I aware of. Other than that, you are probably right.

  3. I'm from Northern England and have never seen it here or met anyone from up here that had done it. I've only encountered it or people who do it down south. Is it a southern England thing?

  4. You can't tell who is or is not a nazi sympathizer, sadly. This could have been solved with, like, a little plaque. An explanation pinned to the wall going basically "this is a war trophy and not just a thing we think is neat."

  5. One tiny band a couple of inches wide in a display case with dozens of other non-Nazi ww2 items that's at the top of a pillar in a dingy corner of the pub doesn't make me think "This pub is probably Nazi" it makes me think "This is a collection of assorted ww2 things"

  6. I guarantee you that isnt the view held by the majority of people who are critical of Israel's handling of the Gaza crisis. There are fucking idiots out there though, that is true.

  7. 50% of the world population is below average intelligence. Think about that.

  8. I recently switched over to automatons simply because of the player need, but terminid side is just more fun. The bugs are more fun, the planets are more fun, even the playerbase to an extent.

  9. I mean I aimed for the face. And bullets hit the face. Git gud? Is this a console issue?

  10. Yeah but you don’t employ 20-30 staff and manage a franchise to make it happen, you haven’t invested £250,000 for franchise marketing rights, or had to install a £30,000+ commercial oven. I bet you couldn’t cook it and deliver it a mile away in 20-30mins.

  11. The franchise owners don't set the prices though so you can't really call them greedy or at least not their greed that is causing the closures.

  12. I wouldn’t really consider pizza prices as greedy. A medium/large pizza from Domino’s or Papa Johns is £10.

  13. A burger meal takes 3 different devices to make it (coke dispenser, fryer and grill). It's also served much faster so they have to cook lots in advance.

  14. USA buys things from China. China buys FOOD from USA.

  15. It's not as simple as grain for iPhones though. The parts for the machines that make that food come from china/Taiwan as well as millions of other things. As well as chemicals and a million other things used in food production.

  16. From my experience (working in the meat industry) most of the machine parts for industrial food production don't come from China. At least not directly, I'm sure a lot of component manufacturers source parts from China but when we buy parts we don't really know where these manufacturers get SMDs and such.

  17. If it's got a microchip in it there's a pretty good chance it's from Taiwan. From my understanding even tractors have advanced computers onboard nowadays.

  18. This, heavy armor needs a massive buff to make it worth it. Kinda wish I could get a super store refund for that heavy I bought, it’s worthless. Especially since Hunters seem so much more aggressive and common now.

  19. Completely agree. Or make the buffs much better to justify it.

  20. You don't have to complete all missions in the same sitting

  21. You do if you're not the host...which is what they're getting at.

  22. Thank you! People saying 'oh that's her normal voice' - that isnt a normal adult voice. She's talking like a baby and now we know why

  23. If that's her normal voice then there's something wrong with her and she shouldn't be doing porn anyway.

  24. Interesting that all but like 4 of them are current or very recent artists.

  25. I once met a family with 6 or u kids.the first ones all had normalish names the last was a combo of the 5-6 before.l, and not in a logical way.

  26. I can drive around a roundabout indefinitely, I just need to fill the tank

  27. Yeah my village pub car park is mightier than the USA. I can walk around it for thousands of miles and never leave the car park....

  28. Definitely better than AMR against the bugs! But the AMR and AC are the bot slappers

  29. Recoilless is great for taking out drop ships though. Sometimes you can just massively reduce the dudes you fight by focusing exclusively on incoming dropships with it.

  30. I (23F) was laying on the top bunk of an 8-person mixed dorm in Amsterdam, looking through photos on my phone when I heard my friend in the bunk below me say in a slightly elevated tone, “Eww, put your dick away!”. I look to my right, and this Italian guy who had checked in earlier was naked and shaking his dick at us. Making direct eye contact with me, then down to her, and motioning with his other hand for us to join him up in his bunk. As if shaking it at us (and in front of all the other occupants) would be appealing. One of the other girls in the room ran out and told the receptionist / front desk what was happening. In less than 5 minutes, a number of police officers AND the fire department showed up to escort him out. The hostel manager informed us he was now banned from all hostels / hotels in Amsterdam. Not sure what happened to him, all I remember was that it was VERY cold that night 🥶

  31. The overwhelming majority of serial killers were raised by a single mother.

  32. Can't we just tell her she can come back to the UK and pop her on the wrong plain?

  33. I prefer the basic rights of not having a terrorist in the country. I feel like that would protect us all much more.

  34. The slippery slope argument is used all the time to protect criminals from the law so that people who've read 1984 too many times can sleep easy at night.

  35. What I love about this map is that you don’t know whether a high number is because they have a lot of prostitutes or very few McDonalds. And vice versa.

  36. No planned night out has ever been as good as a quiet pint that's got out of hand

  37. They get out of hand because everyone is up for it. Whenever you plan an "epic" night out there's always people who turn up but aren't really on the mood and are there to save face/not to be rude/leave early. If you all agree to go out for a quiet pint or food and it develops into a proper sesh, it's because everyone there is up for the sesh which makes it much more fun.

  38. Wtf are those giants creatures that aren't elephants? Look like giant Pangolins and I'm all for it.

  39. I can afford this bottle of Whiskey because I have taken care of the pennies!

  40. I mean someone who kills someone for committing a crime shouldn't be allowed out. Who is she to decide who lives or dies?

  41. Isn't Dwayne Johnson regarded as one of the most overrated actors?

  42. I think referring to him as an actor is a bit steep to be honest.

  43. Yep the world is a lot more half-assed fixes and ducttape than anyone wants to realize

  44. If they'd duct taped the radioactive thingy to the side of a truck they probably wouldn't have lost it.

  45. That’s the reason why the Tesco Value range used to look so awful. You don’t see things looking that bad these days - I imagine the big supermarkets had to have a rethink considering Aldi was selling products for Tesco Value price which look very similar to premium brands.

  46. I'm all for them making the cheap stuff look awful. That way I don't have to spend 5 minutes checking which one is the cheapest. Make the packaging vomit coloured for all I care.

  47. Kuwaitis still hate Saddam, but believe the invasion was a monstrosity that destroyed Iraq.

  48. Do Kuwaitis care if Iraq is destroyed? Do they not see Iraq as an enemy? Or was it purely Saddam they hated?
