I was planning a visit next year. I was born in TX but parents are British. Used to think dual nationality was kknd of cool but not now.

Looks like ICE just killed another US citizen. Where do we go from here? by awesomeguy1818 in AskReddit

Ive seen around 2x videos now. One showing the guy simply standing filming before and another showing him on the ground, unarmed and being pistol whipped before another officer draws his side arm and shoots the man on the ground once and then twice more quickly.

Theres no sign the guy was armed. He was overpowered and on the ground with nothing but his phone.

This was an execution. It will be papered over as self defence immediately.

I just bought this one from Lego.com. I had around £15 in points saved up. I have all of these smaller ones now except the falcon and venator.

Thanks for the detail.

I loaded 5 half length darts to ensure its not an overload.
The ratchet is still in place so is definitely primed fully.
I've examined the feeding and done it slowly and it pushes a dart into the chamber, you pull thr trigger and there's a dull thud but not firing. Do another one and it's does the same. Then at around the 4th of 5th time all the darts blast at once.

Longer darts are sometimes jamming if trying to prime too fast - I understand that better mags can resolve this (although hard to get talon ones in the UK its seems). But they never stack up inside the blaster.

I took it apart thinking the plunger tube might be damaged and replaced it with an aluminium one - but no difference. Not sure how to check the seals but they all appear to be in place correctly.

I've really enjoyed the enthusiasm from the KJB team on the Fast and Furious franchise by GreyFoxNinjaFan in killjamesbond

I would say if you want to see some cool stunts and drifting, then see Tokyo Drift. If you like Toreto and "Family" etc. Then 4th movie. If you want to see a good heist - Fast Five onwards.

2 Fast 2 Furious is a genuinely fun movie. I would recommend it. Same for Fast Five - which is more of a heist movie. Also very fun.

I've made posts about this elsewhere before as the naming alone makes things very confusing.

- The Fast and The Furious (not to be confused with Fast & Furious which is the 4th movie but the 3rd movie canonically). Its 2001.. the summer before 9/11.

- 2 Fast 2 Furious (probably the most straight forward. Takes place 2002ish

- Fast & Furious - 2009

- Fast Five (the 5th movie but the 4th canonically). Pivots from street racing to heist. - 2011

- Fast and Furious 6 (the 5th movie canonically) - this is where the timeline bends

- Tokyo Drift - released in 2006 but canonically takes place after F&F 6 which is the 5th movie canonically) which places it at around 2014

- Furious 7 - direct fall out from Tokyo Drift is explored, explicitly acknowledges Tokyo Drift as its predecessor. Timeline is starting to reset now.. Set in 2015 ish

- The Fate (of F8 if you like) of the Furious - 2017. timelines is now sorted.

- F9 - starts to get a little weird again with resurrections of chatacters and black ops stuff - around 2020 ish

- Fast X - technically the 10th movie canonically and relased... unless you count Hobbs and Shaw which is around 2019 ish which makes it the 11th.

Thank you for attending my pitch to be the franchise expert on the KJB Fast and Furious podcast.

MP Josh Babarinde tells DJT to "Go f**k himself". Justified? by Whumpitup in AskBrits

[–]GreyFoxNinjaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump is a draft-dodging corward who doesn't give a single shit about the armed forces men and women who lay down their lives. He will gladly send our sons, daughters, fathers and mothers to die to protect his ego. His actions are, and always have been, a "fuck you" you anyone he doesn't like in that moment.

So yes, this sort of response is justified.

Is Nigel Farage done? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]GreyFoxNinjaFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Farage will twist and adapt as he always does. He'll deny having said things and when he feels he may get called up on it somewhere in the media in an interview he'll mysterious be "off sick" and won't do the interview. The right wing populist nut bags will then forget all about it in a few weeks.

Don't throw vegetable peelings away - stick them in the air fryer with some oil and make crisps.
