Kraven_the_Hunter,

Sometimes.

Sorry I ran my mouth off a bit too much What did I say?

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Where are all of the good toddlers with guns when you need them??

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I was thinking maybe we could rename Florida’s Prince Albert - errr Lake Okeechobee - after him instead.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I’d say we need a Supremer Court to counter these people, but they’ve already made the Supremacist Court, so how do we top that?

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I really thought this would be an Onion article.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

he might invent some sort of grant and literally give them our taxpayer dollars.

Hmmm, now where have I seen that before??

Kraven_the_Hunter,

“Something, something, Jewish space lasers.”

Kraven_the_Hunter,

There’s no way Phillips gets to continue LARPing as a Democrat after this.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Why would liberals care if you post this? They’re the ones that don’t give a shit what your kink is.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Back in my day, you paid $20-$30 for a new cartridge or tape and you fucking loved it. That’s about $60-$90 in today’s money.

The purchase price hasn’t changed much, it’s the add on expansions, online access, micro transactions, and miscellaneous bullshit.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Oh, come on. It’s not like she was appointed to the Maternal Immortality Panel or anything. Because she would clearly be unqualified for that one.

She’s got this mortality thing locked down though.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

This does not apply where I am. May be your store or regional manager influence.

There, that looks better.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Hey, don’t you go bringing the Bible into this discussion about religion!

Devout Christian Mike Johnson shows up to hush money trial to defend a guy accused of cheating on his wife with a porn star (www.vanityfair.com)

House Speaker Mike Johnson describes himself as a Christian before anything else. He has said his “faith informs everything I do.” He has told people curious about his views to “pick up a Bible.” His wife reportedly runs a counseling service whose operating agreement, which he himself notarized, states, “We believe and...

Kraven_the_Hunter,

… want to know about Trump’s mushroom dick?

Why not, the rest of us have to know about it.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

"We hate you as a person, but your money is still good "

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Cool, but the article’s about young people so not sure what you’re trying to say.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

You don’t? I call mine Mr. Floofers, Señor Flooferson and, around St. Patty’s day he wanted to be Shamus O’Floof. None of those are anywhere close to his actual name.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Excuse you… it’s a motor coach. They’re completely different.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Mother told him to forgive and forget, and Mikey always does what mother says.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I don’t know about you but I’m in the top 49%. Just a couple more loot boxes and pay-to-win character enhancements and I’m probably gonna crack top 45%!

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Seeing as how there were numerous Trump supporters already in office and supporting the insurrectionists before and during Jan. 6, this isn’t all that surprising.

Given that we still don’t have enough people in Congress willing to go against Cheeto Mussolini’s wishes, it’s also unsurprising that nothing has been done about it yet. Disappointing, but unsurprising.

This is why I’m Fahrenheit gang all the way. I’m not running lab experiments daily, but I am going outside all the time. If you have to express the temperature with decimal precision for everyday use, you’ve lost.

Edit: It’s hilarious how easily you can piss people off by saying Fahrenheit is subjectively better as a human temperature scale. Too much of your identity is wrapped up in being able to talk temperature in multiples of ten, people. Chill out. Maybe something near 42 degrees. Sorry, meant to say 5.6 degrees for the nerds in here.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Exactly. My car warns me about freezing conditions starting at 37 F.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I don’t say 74.5, your right but I do care when the temperature is set to 72 or 73. I can tell the difference of that vs. 70 even.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Have you ever stayed in a hotel with the wall thermostat set to C? If so, press the up/down temperature buttons. They’ll move by 0.2 or 0.5 usually.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Pre- or post- Mars orbiter?

Kraven_the_Hunter, (edited )

I never round 10 degrees, that’s crazy. Definitely to a nearby whole number though.

“What’s the temperature going to be today?”

“I think low 60s in the morning and 75 or 78 for the high.”

So, maybe a 5 degree range max.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Not sure what you’re on about, I read the temperature just fine.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

“Necessary” is a strong word, but it is, moreso than when using Fahrenheit.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I’m not talking any louder, you’re going to have to move to the front of the room.

Kraven_the_Hunter, (edited )

Dude you just did it, “low 60s”.

???

You do know that low 60s is not a 10 degree span, right? Right??

I’m beginning to see why some of you can’t handle Fahrenheit units of measure…

ETA: Sure, I might say something like “upper 70s for the high” if I don’t have any better Idea but, again that is not a 10 degree span of temperature units. Please, for the love of all that is holy, tell me you understand that basic premise of communication?!

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Go figure. I guess the hotels I stay at don’t exist then. Thanks for the info.

Kraven_the_Hunter, (edited )

We all subjectively are more used to our scales

Definitely agree. We’re comfortable with what we grew up with and there’s nothing wrong with that.

For water, however, freezing pretty bang on zero … Which I’d argue is an objective benefit over Fahrenheit for weather.

Ehhh, only if you have to think of freezing as zero. For us Fahrenheiters, “above 0” is cold but manageable with a coat. “below 0” means don’t go outside unless you have to. That’s a pretty convenient gauge to me.

Negative? Freezing. Looks great on a graph

Of course. If you’re plotting shit on a graph then you’re likely doing lab work, and I’ll agree that celsius is a great scale. Not for daily “how’s the weather” use though.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

There is another! Woo hoo!

It’s kind of telling (and hilarious to me) how many connects I was able to spawn just by saying, “I like Fahrenheit better”. People using Celsius for daily, is-it-comfy-for-a-human use absolutely lose their shit if you challenge them.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

And base 3 sometimes (yards). When taught well, there’s a ton of value in learning to quantify the world in a variety of base systems.

Not uniquely American, but thinking in base 7 (weeks), base 12 (years, hours, feet), base 60 (minutes), base 3 (yards), base 10 (the default unless told otherwise), etc. really helps you adapt and estimate a number of other, unrelated, things.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

I’d just say 52, but keep raging.

Kraven_the_Hunter, (edited )

My original point was that Fahrenheit is more useful as a gauge of human comfort temperature.

But now you’ve made my other point that there is a not-insignificant number of people, like you, who’s identity is so wrapped up in the perceived superiority of all things metric that you get your panties in a twist at the slightest challenge. It’s honestly funny.

I mean, look at you for example. You voluntarily joined a conversation to go off on an unhinged rant and call me names. Just take a moment to think about your life and the choices you’ve made to bring you to this point where you lose your shit over a unit of measure.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

You’re a weird dude. Go find something to do that makes you happy. Whatever you’ve got now isn’t working.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

He has 2 daughters but only cares about one.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Or how fragile Don’s ego is. That’s the point. Give him a taste of his own medicine because he can’t take it.

Kraven_the_Hunter,

Nobody does. Incoherent ranting, now where have I seen that before???
