True, but it's more emotive to talk about killing kids.

5mph is enough to flatten an unwary rat but nobody's putting speed limits out that are that low.

Freedom units? You mean the ones used by your British masters?

Yeah, but that just makes you sound like a dick who has no idea what kind of mammoth struggle it is to get off drugs that are designed to be as addictive as possible.

Recommendation for future: either say nothing, or join in with those who congratulate them for their achievement.

How it started: the Ottomans sided with the Nazis, so when they lost, the Ottomans also lost their land and the Allies got it, following the usual war rule where the winner wins the land. Dividing up the land is where the British Mandate for Palestine came from, under which we gave 2/3 of the land to the Arabs (Transjordan) and 1/3 of the land to Israel. But the Arabs refused to accept this and started the first of a series of wars against Israel. The Arabs, now also partially known as Palestinians, have continually refused to accept any peace deal, starting wars whenever possible and so far losing every one of them. Israel has repeatedly accepted peace deals, even at the cost of land, but it only works if both sides agree, which they don't: the only deal the Arabs want is all the land and no Israel, which also means no Jews (proof: look at the Jewish communities within existing Arab states (TLDR: non-existent or shrinking)), which means the Arabs are hellbent on a genocide of all the Jews, and are determined to achieve that or die trying.

I've been known to knock out a several second solo on the rectaphone. Doesn't tend to be at will though (well I don't want him to slap me).

We've got some in the UK, like this one at the Shell petrol station at S60 5ND (pic from Oogle Gearth)

Some people just like being a dick instead of getting on with their lives. My answer to those people is to slow down until they pass, and it's fairly common that I get under 10mph and think I'm actually going to have to stop before they get the hint.

Lexus GS300. Great car to drive. But every fucking thing that went wrong was at least £400. Door check strap? £400. Windscreen wiper? £400. Parking sensor? £400, and all eight of them need doing, and that's £400 PER FUCKING SENSOR. Everything's main dealer only. Merc was no better. £600 for a fucking HOSEPIPE. Also tried BMW (bike). Same problem. Had a CANBUS system. I started calling it a CAN'T BUS cos every tiny thing that went wrong shut the entire bike down. Duff indicator? Sorry, won't start the engine until it's fixed. Yes that means it's got to be trailered to the dealer.

No more fancy marques for me, they can all fuck off until I'm a billionaire. I drive Volvos now.

I'm still not quite over it. Whenever the garage tells me there's going to be a big bill on my Volvo I think OMG how many digits, but then they say something like £150. That's a big bill? Hahahahahahahahaha.

No, intermediate. They eat half a meal and leave the rest.
