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

~~30000 feet~~ 9100 metres

~~9100 meters~~ 910 American football fields

[–] Rice_Daddy 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

10 meter per field, is this football for toddlers?

[–] dohpaz42 1 points 4 months ago

I’m American, I can’t math. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

The Brits are still salty over those teas thrown over at Boston Harbour.

[–] ripcord 16 points 4 months ago

So is the tea.

[–] Lemming421 3 points 4 months ago

Yes, we beat the Germans in 1966 and people still won’t shut up about that…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Is that you, Ken?

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.

Happy Tory independence day! (hopefully)

Wait. Ken M is British? Edit: Floridian

[–] Ultraviolet 1 points 4 months ago

We are all British on this blessed day.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

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

I love the American "patriot" with the Warhammer 40k emperial flag as profile picture.

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