Loving the combo of camo and hi-vis.

I’m going to guess by here you mean Scotland (given your username). An MOT (annual inspection) is not a service. The inspection is just to ensure the car is road worthy. Oil and filter changes, for example, are not a part of it.

That’s all us euros would expect from a nation comprised of the rest of the world’s rejects.

There’s around 15 000 satellites in orbit. Imagine there was only 15K cars on earth, and they could drive everywhere at random. How long do you think it would be before you even saw one, let alone there was a collision. Now imagine the area is much bigger, has an extra spacial dimension, and is being tracked and controlled.

Edit. There is, on average, a similar number of planes in the air as satellites, and mid-air collisions are extremely rare and usually only happen at choke-points like airports.

Veuve Clicquot. Nearly all the right letters, just the wrong order.

Or Trumps pubic bone.

I’ve heard the secret service had some interesting run-ins with a drunken Boris Yeltsin back when he used to stay there, so…maybe?

Going to a bar and having a shot of booze won’t really harm you, but if you’re the bartender and have to have a shot every time a customer does, it will.

It’s a Scottish Aperol spritz.

The UK is an island. A wet one full of rivers, lochs, lakes, ponds and streams. I guess we just fence all those too.

One of my favourite is when The Sn newspaper in the UK proudly boasted that 90%(ish, IDK) of it’s readers preferred The Sn. That’s everyone who buys The S*n, who responded to the survey, and still a large proportion don’t like it.

Edit. Asterisks fucked the formatting.

I’d second Portugal. You could spend a week in Lisbon for culture , museums and shopping, then hop on the train to a beach resort in the Algarve for the partying and swimming.

OK, I hear you. How bout baseball bats? They’re something every American has.

My point is that they don’t look too hard to destroy. Why fuck about with lasers?

OK, but, to shoot a handheld laser at a camera and hit the CCD, you have to be in it’s field of view. You could shoot it with a gun outside of it’s field of view. So, is it a greater risk to make a noise, and not be capture on CCTV, or be silent in full view of a law enforcement camera? All things to bear in mind when you’re figuring out the best ways to destroy these things.

I assume it’s mostly Americans affected by this so, genuine question. Why buy a laser when one of your regular guns will do a better job, with the same legal ramifications?

Relax

I’ll need some information first

Just the basic facts

Can you show me where it hurts?

Not sure if you’re joking, but…

If China gets Christianised, are you going to claim that Easter actually had it’s origins in the Qingming festival

If the entire Christian world then adopts elements of the Qingming festival and changes the name of it’s spring solstice festival to “Qingming”, then yes, of course.

Don’t joke about that. You’ll make the Christians cross.
