Not used to you flowing slow, gonna take some getting used to lol. As far as Cozz, I'll have to profess ignorance.

Had to stop watching because he was wearing a Steelers hat. Sorry, @frog lol.

Just kidding. Not bad at all, I like the piano interspersed throughout it.

Side note... Where in the goddamn hell did "whip" come from as slang for a car, anyway? I've only noticed it, like, within the last 3-5 years. Anyone have a clue where that originated?

Yeah, but you're English. You don't know any better. Until the NFL started making the shitty teams (like the Steelers) go play over there once or twice a year, you still thought football was played with a round ball. Not your fault.

(I'm a Browns fan - If you've learned enough about the NFL and rivalries and whatnot, you'll understand why I'm giving you shit lol)

dunno where it originated, but its been around for an easy twenty years.  that i know.  

  

[edit]  'whip', that is.  

  

For real? Damn. Apparently I just started noticing it recently, or it's become more prevalent, or something. Of course, most old-school rap I was never much of a fan of, so I wouldn't have heard it used back then I suppose.

unlike probably every other american, however, i do not think english football should be re-branded as 'soccer'.  

Go to hell.

You guys are all wrong. Ravens Nation!

Go to hell.

I'll simply ignore the Football/Futbol side of this and hope it fades away quietly into the night.

Metric system? Yeah, uh, too late for that. Have you seen the morons this country produces as it is? Now, can you imagine telling the few that actually know, in a roundabout manner, how to measure shit - that all of a sudden they have to do it differently?

Let's put it this way. Try buying something that requires change at a store (preferably a fast food joint) while their registers aren't working. Watch the nimrod behind the counter as he seemingly attempts an exercise in rocket science, because you had the audacity to use a ten to purchase something that costs $5.30. Better yet, give him $10.30, and check out the blank look he gives you.

Now, imagine that same idiot learned a tape measure instead of a cash register. Then change the numbers in his tape measure. Same thing, essentially.

NOW! Extrapolate that a few hundred steps/jobs down the line. Let's say one of our staged ICBM's needs to be moved from the silo for repairs, or a software update, or what-have-you. The soldier handling it has been trained that it's 860 feet from the silo, down the underground track, into the repair hub. So he punches in 860 for the distance to be moved - neglecting the remember that all the controls had been changed from feet to meters. The missile rams into the end of the service tunnel and detonates.

Not realizing what occurred, CENTCOM reads the situation as an attack. Let's assume, for whatever reason, they decide Egypt is the attacker. So they send everything they've got, 6800(ish) miles away to Egypt... When the missiles land, Spain no longer exists. Spain? Yeah, 6800(ish) km away. Suddenly, we've annihilated an ally... And the rest of the world retaliates.

Congratulations. Changing from Imperial to Metric system just plunged the country into Nuclear Winter.

(PS: I know I'm talking out my ass. Most military shit is already metric, if I remember right, isn't it? Forget that for a minute, for the sake of a good story lol)

(EDIT: Artistic license, that's the term I'm looking for. Allow me some artistic license here. lol.)

lol, leave it to you.

That's all you're gonna give me? C'mon, man, I put some damn work into that reply!

A movie plot? Shit, no way. Way too implausible, no matter how refined it got. I was just looking for a reply that was so off-the-wall that you couldn't shoot it full of holes without a little effort. Heh.
