Angry elephant. Remove your glass eye, insert it into your foreskin and flop it around while yelling "brrraaaah!"

Most impressive party trick I've ever seen.

As a bartender I feel that I provide a vital service to society.

It's getting too English. Make it more French.

Can you time stamp where they release the penguins? I couldn't pinpoint that part.

NOPD's stated goal is 1600, a ratio of 1:227 persons.

The actual ratio is 1:385

Cleveland, similar in size to New Orleans, has a ratio 1:310. They also state that they are suffering from a serious police shortage.

By comparison:

NYC has a ratio of 1:166

Chicago 1:180

New York City has a ratio of 1:166

Tbf, NOPD don't arrest many people anyway. There's a massive cop shortage, only 944 officers for a city of 364,000 with skyrocketing crime rates. Moreover, they've been operating under a consent decree by the DOJ since 2012. They're overworked, underpaid and under the thumb of the feds so in response they simply don't do shit.

Thank you for that. It was really insightful.

The "british" accent as we think of it has evolved greatly since the colonial era. I'm not a linguist but I'd suggest the similarities you hear between Kiwi and American accents are things that were ubiquitous at one time then other English speakers lost them along way.
