they have to watch the brits tweets. they tried just tapping all their phones before but couldnt understand a damn thing they were saying. who knows what they are saying in that secret made up language they speak over there, but at least they use english when on the internet.

I'm from the North West then lived in Wales for a while so that might explain it. But as in you use it as in to go out and destroy a place? Not like wrecked? So you wouldn't say I'm going to get destroyed, you would say I'm going to destroy?

Haha yea TSA are just crazy about some things. My friend is British but his parents are Indian. Every single time he has been to America he gets 'randomly' screened. 

At first I thought this was ridiculous, but then I saw what he looked like and now I'm ok with it.

No offense, but I don't understand how Americans can live in such a crazy country. Your culture is more paranoid that Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Be more liberal, and kick those right winged tea bagger libertarians down to South America, I can guarantee your country will improve dramatically as a result - both culturally, and economically.

As an aside, I don't think I've ever seen somebody smile in a DM photo.

Little saying like that crop up in tiny groups all over Britain, and some make it to larger groups. I can't say I've ever heard anyone say "gonna detroy X" before myself, but it's not a far cry from "gonna rip up X-street/town".

Even if you haven't heard it before I would hope most people could figure out it was just a saying from the context, I mean what if he'd said "gonna paint New York red"? would he have been arrested for planning to vandalise New York?

New York is reem.

Huh?

Not heard that word before... I would guess you are trying to say NY is good or bad, but without voice I can't tell which.

A slang term from Essex which got pretty big after characters on "The Only Way Is Essex" used it. It's pretty much hated across the board, though.

"Reem" is synonymous with "fly", or "fine", as in "looking pretty fly", or "damn, she' fine!"

I used to have long hair and got frequently picked out by security on my business trips to Washington DC. As soon as I got in line for the x-ray machine they would mark my ticket. Next please stand in this glass box while we search all your luggage, then get a thorough search over yourself.

I got so sick of it I rather drove the 9 hours from Canada to Washington DC. Not that that was much better. Since I was still travelling on a Dutch passport (was a permanent resident at the time) they took my passport at the Buffalo border crossing. I had to wait in a concrete waiting room for an hour until my name was called for questioning, pictures and fingerprint scans. Then buy a 6 dollar visa waiver. Welcome to the USA. At least on the way back into Canada I could drive straight through.

Same thing happened on our honeymoon when we crossed into the states from Vancouver to Seattle. Car got a thorough search while we had to wait and not cross some line in an office building.

First time I drove over the border I didn't know about the 6 dollar fee. I had flown to Montreal and was driving down to a business meeting in Hanover Vermont. (Beautiful drive in autumn) I had filled out the visa waiver at the airport already, but they ignored that. (Exact same form) They only accept cash, so I had to walk back across the border to a convenience store and exchange money. Welcome indeed. They should just post a big F... OFF sign at the border.

My most 'suspect' trip caused me no trouble at all in comparison. Once I got on the wrong plane (yes it can happen lol) and ended up in San Jose, Costa Rica instead of San Jose, California. I had no problem arriving there without a visa, got right back on the plane home without a problem, no problems arriving back in Toronto after a round trip in a day, just some good laughs.
