  1. If Argentina mattered at all I’d really hate the place.

  2. saw this as it was playing out – cry harder argies πŸ’ͺ

  3. Imagine getting destroyed in your own backyard by a country 7,000 miles away.

    Argentina still recovering from that fat L.

  4. Well, the kid was right though

    > Around 6am on 25 April, after leaving Grytviken, Santa Fe was detected on radar by Lieutenant Chris Parry, the observer of the Westland Wessex HAS.3 anti-submarine helicopter from Antrim, and attacked with depth charges. This attack caused extensive internal damage, including the splitting of a ballast tank, the dismounting of electrical components and shocks to the machinery. As the submarine struggled to return to Grytviken on the surface, Plymouth launched a Westland Wasp HAS.1 helicopter, and Brilliant launched a Westland Lynx HAS.2. The Lynx dropped a Mk 46 torpedo, which failed to strike home, but strafed the submarine with its pintle-mounted 7.62 mm L7 General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG). The Wessex also fired on Santa Fe with its GPMG. The Wasp from HMS Plymouth and two other Wasps launched from Endurance fired AS-12 air-to-surface anti-ship missiles at the submarine. Due to the fiberglass material of the ship’s sail, the missiles passed from side to side. Corporal Alberto Macias was severely wounded, later having a leg amputated. Machine gun fire was used to respond to the attack from the ship as it retreated back to Grytviken. Santa Fe was fitted with doors at the sail, from which to shoot while navigating on the surface. It was a feature that most American submariners considered unnecessary, as it was unlikely to be used in modern warfare.

    From the wiki

  5. Classic argentinian L, they will be better if they rejoin Spain

  6. I hate Argentina. They make me side with Barry, every time I watch something about the Falklands

  7. Let the Falklands be a warning to you lesser Europeans that if you fuck about with our land, you find out.

  8. No one but Barry and Alberto cares about that moronic war. The World Cup on the other hand. And Alberto’s clearly ahead in that regard.

  9. I got drunk with an Argie in a bar once. Nice lad, which was a surprise based on what every other South American I’ve ever met has said about Argentinians.

  10. I just remembered we have an Argentinian queen, so I guess I’m entitled to some land on the Falkland Islands.

    I’m just kidding, I support Barry 100% on this matter.

  11. Talking about Argentina, go watch The Eternaut on Netflix
