Fractional inches can suck my nuts.

Decimal inches can lick my ass.

Fractional metric can wear a skirt and give me a reach around 😍

[–] MightyGalhupo 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Almost afraid to ask but what’s a reach around

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

where you reach around from behind and touch their front bottom

[–] MightyGalhupo 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Why wouldn’t I just do it from the front though

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

because you are preoccupied with their rear bottom in other activities

[–] MightyGalhupo 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ok, but how am I supposed to deal with the front top then?

That’s the one I’m using for the front bottom, it’s convenient too since it’s lower than the other two

Are they really that small?

Yeah, honestly I'm usually so tired of the imperial VS metric debate (I know metric is better and I wish the US used it, it's just a low priority), but drill bit sizes are so stupid.

"Yeah gimme that 15/64ths bit" unhinged behavior.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I like inches, I like the size of 1/8th" it's suitable to my needs. I like the scale on the ruler, my eyes can instantly tell what I'm measuring because each tick is a different length. It works for me, it jives with my tools, I will not buy new rulers.

I would happily throw out all my drill bits and switch to numbered ones or metric, I don't care. Fractions for hole size is dumb. I'll also happily throw out all my imperial sockets and wrenches and switch to one kind of nut. Having two standards of the same tool just sells more socket sets. Which was probably the point.

If only they'd made a metre equal a yard, then everyone would be bilingual and we wouldn't have to fight. You could use the one that was appropriate for the job.

[–] ook_the_librarian 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

You know if they changed a meter to equal a yard, they would have to change what an amp is. Americans use amps. So it just bites us in the ass anyway.

Edit: I just remembered my definition of amp is out of date. I mean, it might still change, but not as directly as I thought.

Carful what you wish for they made my nuts suck after striping them.
