I hope you get 19 months for failure to proofread.

And poor excerpting, you omitted this hanging curveball:

at a gym near Darwin

From the article:

"Ryan insisted he 'accidentally' injured the fellow gymgoer but accepted his actions were deliberate, the court heard."

Dude’s gf tripped and accidentally fell on the other guy’s dick.  So it could be a “fucking” accident

That's what you get for fucking around with that metric shit to begin with.

Yeah, but why did she keep falling, over and over and over and over...?

I remember in 6th grade having to learn that metric shit because they said it was about to take over as the standard for measurement everywhere. I was in 6th grade in 1980.

Started in the 70's. There was some conversion act or some shit that was going to standardize everything globally. One happy family. I had to learn Imperial gallons and how to convert just to find out they were more or less obsolete. We had interstate signs in dual mi/km. Some gas stations sold by the liter which caused many a misunderstanding. I want to blame this on Gerald Ford somehow.

Try doing the conversion in your head after you’ve been drinking all day on an overseas trip and are ordering a steak at dinner.  I ended up with a really big steak.

That fall felt better than the other falls.

Pet peeve of mine:

 

If you are using the metric system, its a 20 kg mass. If you are using standard, its a 44 pound weight.

Its never a 20 kg weight.

Bro, do you even drop?

That's the kind of fake trip I do when I want to dump a cup of water on my kids.  I think I might put a little more effort and actually step on my shoe lace or something if I am attempting to destroy someone.

All right, Shady.  Maybe he's right, Grady.  But think about the baby before you get all crazy.

Gym sounds like Jim just like gif sounds like Jif. It shouldn’t take getting a 20kg weight dropped on your head to figure it out.

But that sentence seems a little light.

Well, there is lb (mass) and lbf (weight or force), and kg (mass) and kgf (weight or force). 20 kg mass has a weight of 20 kgf (196 N on Earth). Similarly 44 lb mass has a 44 lbf weight (I am not going to find the g value in these funny units).
