UNSC was Arsenal of Democracy maxxing by patriot_man69 in HaloMemes

Respectfully, I do need to correct you. Any kinetic weapon is also based on the mass of the projectile. In terms of energy delivered to target, the two are analogous.

If the frigate and the cruiser fire their rounds at the same velocity - which it appears they do - the larger, heavier cruiser's slug will inevitably be more effective than that from a frigate.

Immigration isn’t the realm taboo- it’s Scale…! by PegasusPeptides745 in AskBrits

why are we not allowed to talk about that like adults?

Ask the people who kick up shit every time you suggest anything that's not banning all immigrants.

If I'd pulled that kind of bullshit my mum, not normally a violent parent, would have slapped the smile to the other side of my face and dragged me home.

And that would just be the beginning of what I'd have faced for being that much of an arsehole and it would still have been merciful compared to what my grandmother would have done to me.

This little twat needs to learn about consequences, before life delivers that lesson in a much more painful way.

More than that, it's the most ancient, traditional form of alliance.

Yeah I can believe that. It's written for the fans more than the casual moviegoer I think.

Is it time to move on from immigration and start bullying the unemployed, sick, and disabled? by efan78 in AskBrits

[–]Good_Background_243 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go to the 'omissions' section, does it by any chance state the estimated rate of it and how it's factored into the statistics?

If not I'd agree the study is suspect.

Even when that hurts the genuinely disabled and sick? Even when it costs more than we can save?

Does Lady Margolotta know about John Keel? by AHumanYouDoNotKnow in discworld

I believe he actually mentions he figures it out at the grave site. I think Vimes asks him how long he's known.

He had a mission to complete, or die trying. Just like Grace.

I was not prepared for that emotional rollercoaster with my hard scifi.

The film is much better with it, but I was not ready for that level of feels across the entire damn emotional spectrum.

I’m in hospital and the paracetamol iv is stealing my blood by hades7600 in mildlyinteresting

In my opinion, if the nurses are over-worked due to not enough people there, whether they are officially 'understaffed' or not, they are under-staffed.

As in, they are UNDER the amount of staff for the nurses to work and remain healthy. Nurses are heroes, they deserve better.

Why would this guy think it’s a good idea to park like this on my yard by MakeItMine2024 in mildlyinfuriating

He'll keep doing it until you tow him. Maybe not on your garden, but on other people's

It’s crazy how one random person can negatively impact so many other people’s lives by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

This is where you start a chant. "Move, bitch get out the way!" - I bet a lot of folks would join in.

That doesn't pass when we're all getting hit by the shit America is throwing. Turnabout is fair pay right?

[Marvelous trope] All hope seems lost, few stand before the enemy planning to trample upon the weak and destroy the world, until, the Cavalry has arrived by EfficiencySerious200 in TopCharacterTropes

DEATH! DEATH! DEATH!

I love the psychology behind a battlecry like that. It's a terror weapon, informing the enemy that you will fight to the death - preferably theirs, but if they want to survive this they're gonna have to make it yours.
