But what about the Meriadoc Falcon?

Took me a second to get it. Well done πŸ‘πŸ»

Wanna explain it for my friend who doesn't get it?

[-] airman@infosec.pub 38 points 2 weeks ago

His name is Peregrin Took. The falcon is called a peregrine falcon and it’s quite the fast animal.

I hope this helped your friend. If not, I can offer more support and guidance

Are peregrine falcons the fastest or something?

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 10 points 2 weeks ago

Yes when they dive from great heights they are technically the fastest.

One was recorded reaching 242 mph in a stoop. Nothing else comes close.

The fastest? LightEmail.

I get the joke but I assume fastest is the eagle.
