      Those doors are pretty heavy… you drop one on a modern aluminum aluminium warship form 30000 feet up and you’ll do some damage.

            10 meter per field, is this football for toddlers?

    I totally forgot about KenM! Anyone know if there’s a magazine/community that posts his stuff regularly?

    God I just realized I miss the Ken M subreddit. An absolute legend of a troll. The profile pic and horseysurprise.

      Bullshit. The war went on for 8 years, not even counting the French and Indian war before it or the war of 1812. King George was very committed in defeating and later reconquring America. He sent hundreds of ships just to retake New York in the Revolution, the largest fleet move in history up to that time IIRC. Yes there were other conflicts, many caused by France at the time but that statement is flat out false.

    Bah. We would merely invoke Article 5, making any attack on us an attack on the UK itself.

    Ken M I love you but the UK celebrates the Banking and Financial Dealings Act. Multiple times a year.

    Remember this date (and every 4th of July since 1776) on next election. Almost no election ever changed existing systems. Revolting did.
