      I’d put money on it. Like a decent amount. 100% this guy was a “muslamists aren’t compatible with our values” ghoul and still probably is. It’s cos the ceo was white he’s blates mad.

      To me “glassing” someone means hitting them over the head with a pint glass. What’s it mean in the context you’ve posted?

            Okay but now imagine if everyone in England nuked eachother when they got drunk, instead of beating each other with glass

                I don’t really mean anything, I was just amused by the idea of the english meaning of “glassing” being the same as the military meaning, but nothing else being changed. There’s no depth to it, I just found myself chuckling at the image of some old geezer going “oi mate!” and then just… explosion over a disagreement about when tottenham was most shit

        Nuking a place, especially a desert will create lots of glass from the heat. So “glassing” a place is slang for nuking it, or just bombing it so hard nothing remains.

        in this context it means a bunch of nuclear strikes, which in the American imagination would turn all of the sand there to glass
