Chain of British electrical retailers that exclusively employs male juvenile retards with bad acne. They all wear cheap shiny suits from Burtons or Top Man (clothing chains that employ the same sort of people).
Dixons make their money on selling dodgy extended warranties by trying to scare you that the screen on your shiny new laptop might break. One time they tried to sell me an extended warranty on a £10 kettle. FFS...

Spotty youth: "You can insure the washing machine against breakdown for 3 years for only £10/month".
Me: "Are you saying that this product which I have not yet paid for is unreliable?".
SY: "Ehhhhh...."
Me: "Besides, if it breaks, I will get a plumber out to fix it and that cannot cost as much as £360".
SY: "Security to checkouts please. We have a customer with a brain".

In-the-closet male transvestite. Wears trousers held up with a belt. Underneath wears stockings and suspenders.
If only he knew that he should have used BRACES to provide additional trouser (not pants) security.

Organised criminal gang which operates in Northern Ireland and Eire. Their main efforts are spent nowadays on smuggling, drug dealing, protection rackets, robbery and handing out beatings to Nationalist people who cross them.
As a sideline, they also used to dabble in terrorism. Al Qeada and the Tamil Tigers are committed terrorists as they are willing to die to achieve their ends. The IRA were only ever involved in terrorism (think of bacon and eggs - the chicken was involved, but the pig was committed) and preferred to leave a bomb on a time somewhere in London, and slip home before it went off. The only times that they dared to face the British Army directly, such as Gibraltar and Loughgall Police Station, the Army slaughtered them.

As stated, the AK-47 and FN-FAL/SLR both have barrels of calibre 7.62mm. However, the 2 weapons fire totally incompatible cartridges. The FN-FAL/SLR used the 7.62x51 NATO cartridge whereas the AK-47 used the shorter 7.62x39 Soviet cartridge.
The NATO cartidge is more powerful and has greater range (hence it has often been used in machine guns such as the BREN and GPMG/FN-MAG, and in sniper rifles sucn as the SR-25), however the less powerful Soviet cartridge is more effective at wounding/killing a human at typical combat ranges (less than 400m).

A shot from a 7.62x51 SLR at close range would typically go straight through the target and out the other side, doing minimal damage and transferring little monentum to the target. A shot from an 7.62x39 AK-47 will tumble inside the target, doing considerable damage and transferring all of its monentum to the target.

Statistical analysis software used a lot in 6-sigma/process excellence programmes. The interface is a bit clunky, but the stats behind it is spot on.

I threw my gauge R&R data in to MINITAB and it confirmed what I suspected - the instrument is useless for measuring to the required tolerance.

They protect the 2nd amendment - the right to bear flintlock muskets...in a properly consituted milita.
I don't see any mention of assault rifles, self-loading pistols, etc. in there.
How many of their members are members of the army reserve, national guard, etc?

Urban firing range located in the East Midlands of England. The Chief Constable of Notts this week complained publicly that he is going to have to subcontract some murder investigations because his detectives cannot cope with the workload.
Boss: "We want you to move to Hucknall (north side of Nottingham) to work".
Me: "No thanks. I will stay in Derby as it is safer here".
