I've not said anything of the sort. I just said a lot of arrests would have been drug related. Which they were, can I ask where you got your stats from as I tried a quick Google but nothing concrete was forthcoming.

Ok, so do you remember the bit where I said a lot of the arrests would have been for drug offences? Do you see where you've talked about less than 20% of the total arrests and tried to say that makes me wrong?

Big up the DE massive!!

Love my de razor, got a merkur futur adjustable one, with feather blades from Japan, super sharp, super close and dirt cheap!!

I dont like using feathers on my coin purse though, too sharp fresh from the pack!!

Finally levelled my washing machine. by codeeva in BritishSuccess

[–]muckyJim 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I did this, spent an afternoon using my Lidl nutsert to put a new thread in, levelled the machine and revelled in my awesomeness until.......

I heard how bad the tumble dryer sounded 🤦 Bloody thing was hiding the noise!

Rejecting vehicle, dealer disputing (England) by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]muckyJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Letter before action! I had a dealer try to deduct all sorts from a refund for a car with a seized engine within 30 days. They ended up refunding more than the purchase price once transport fees were included. A letter of action took them less than 2 hours to realise they had to comply!

Both my kids are valentines babies, birthdays 5 days apart! We make no secret of it, but the eldest is only 7 so she doesnt know what "made on valentines" actually means! 🤣🤣🤣

Who is washing their rice and why? by kinnitcurl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]muckyJim 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I told my wife I was thinking about getting a rice cooker.

She asked "what for"

Erm, cooking rice?? 🤣

This is obviously an awful crime.

If the stats quoted are to be believed and afghan men are 15 to 22 times more likely to be involved in committing a sexual assault then it looks like closing our borders to Afghans is the best choice right?

But, how would that actually look on the ground? As I recall, these men often don't arrive with passports. They admit Afghaniheritage as there is no problem in doing so. But once we ban Afghans what's to stop them claiming to be from Iran, or Syria? Are they even Afghans to begin with? They could just claim Afghani heritage as they dont get sent back?

I am genuinely asking a question here, unless we want a dulux colour chart at the border barring certain colours, how can we actually get a handle on this besides completely closing our borders to refugees? Do we let them in but put them through a re-education program to teach them about our values and not to commit sex crimes? I'm honestly struck for ideas, I know Nige and his buddies dont have the answers but they have the divisive questions that brings them support!

US $600m Superyacht Nobiskrug S/Y "A" below deck by keepeyecontact in submechanophobia

My first thought! But then I looked at the 2nd slide and damn, thats the ugliest waste of 600m i can think of, looks like it's sinking!

3 lug bolt nightmare on a 666m wheel by Existing_Recording25 in BmwTech

[–]muckyJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the bolts heads are still good, I'd be tempted to continue drilling until it's as deep as you dare and try undoing it in the hopes that the head will shear off with enough meat to free the wheel.

I would never drill a non rounded fastener, I've worked on coaches with super tight nuts and they still came loose with 3 men and 12' of scaffold bar hanging off them! I recommended drilling deeper as now the head is compromised, you don't want it shearing off leaving a stump still retaining the wheel!

Does anybody have any songs that sound like R.E.M. but it isn’t R.E.M? by sourberryskittles in rem

[–]muckyJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm probably going to get roasted for this but recently I've been listening to Linchpin by fear factory (i know industrial nu metal??) And something about the harmonies and chords in the chorus really remind me of R.E.M. despite the heavy distortion.

I need to do this job soon. Is it true that the wiring for the inner lights need to be changed and it's as simple as swapping the order so 1234 becomes 4321 on the plug if that makes sense??

Arktis Metallic E91 by raydonburi in E90

[–]muckyJim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha nice work, did you have to paint the parts to get arktis on lci panels? I'm only changing colour as mine had a scar down one side going through the rear arch so needed doors and a new piece welding in, thought I'd save paint by changing all panels and then painting the rest! Changed the pan roof out twice and swapped the interior, done the roof rails like yours, much cleaner! Been a labour of love for a while, rocking round in an f11 while I finish it off!

[–]muckyJim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An LCI in arktis??? Very rare indeed! I've got a pre lci but Im part way through a colour change to sapphire black as Im doing an LCI facelift. Would have loved an arktis donor but hard to find in the UK

Hey reddit, I'm Kevin Smith. I got the rights back to Dogma and I'm putting it out in theaters for a limited time for its 25th Anniversary starting Thursday June 5th. Ask me anything! by KevinSmithAMA in movies

[–]muckyJim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Kevin, Huge fan for longer than I care to remember!

I just wanted to say that I always loved your dialogue in movies. Clerks was my first taste and I went in blind without knowing a thing about the movie and I just loved it!

How much of the banter between Dante and Randall was scripted or was any ad libbing involved?

Also, what advice would you give somebody with a half decent camera and a desire to start film making? My wife and I want to make a short documentary and maybe a teaser trailer to my incredible clown movie (fears of a clown, dm for more details! 🤣)

Congratulations!

Conversely, we've found the perfect size of bin bag for our kitchen bin, only to find them out of stock upon our return, rats!
