middle class

Everyone who works and pays taxes is middle class. There has been no such thing as "working class" since the 1970s with the end of mass labour industries such as coal mining and steel.

The other classes are underclass/scum (long term unemployable) and upper class (too rich to need to work).
Kevin empties bins for the council and his wife Sharon is a school dinner lady. They own their own house, take two foreign holidays per year (sun and skiing) and own two cars. They are middle class who work, not working class.

Irish-American

An American-American whose Great Great Great Grandmother's cousin once wore a green skirt and drank a pint of Guinness.
I spoke to an Irish-American (from Boston of course) and took great pleasure in telling him that my great-grandfather was Irish and involved in the Easter Uprising. It was true, he was Head of his Lodge in the Orange Order and became a section commander in the Black and Tans. He defended his Dublin against the Fenian insurrectionists (note: rising against the lawful government during wartime is punishable by death in most countries) and personally shot some of them.

CRS

Compagnie Republique de Securite. French riot police. Mainly recruit in the countryside as most riots occur in the town, so they get the opportunity to wop, tear-gas and water-cannon townies.
The Parisians hippies were rioting again, so the CRS went and cracked some skulls.

7.62

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.

car bling

The crap like spoilers, body kits, bolted fuel caps and stick-on window tinting that boy racers (see also pond scum and chavs) attach to their beaten up Vauxhall Novas to impress their friends.

The end result is a sheep in wolf's clothing.
Rather than buy a proper sports car, I will take this beaten up wreck and make it look like one for almost as much money.
