  • one time in high school my year had a pre graduation event, and the school rented one of those big convention rooms that are the closest thing most of us ever come to a ball room. anyway during the event we were served food, and one guy made it his mission to eat as much as possible. a bit after we were done eating he vomited and fully caught it in his mouth with the help of his hand, and proceeded to just swallow it all again. enjoy this cursed knowledge I am forced to carry. at least you don’t have to see it lol.





  • growing up with three women I had pretty much every nighmare scenario with shed hair. the worst was the few times they managed to magically work their way into an orifice. I found one up my ass a couple times (no I didn’t eat them jesus those were way too long to eat on accident) and at least once one managed to worm its way into my urethra. pulling them out was an awful sensation I wont ever forget. I really hope it doesn’t happen again now that I’m growing my hair out lol.

    Saying its too expensive to change is bullshit. Metric is common enough that most people who care about units at all end up having one set of tools for each system so they can use both as needed. This includes industry and machinists. It wouldn’t actually cost anything to change at this point we could just stop designing new things in imperial units and in a couple decades we would barely need imperial tools anymore, except to work on old stuff. Some engineers are just as pig headed as anyone though, so they just keep using imperial even though they know both, use both, and still run into problems with imperial.
