I won’t be seeing your replies.

Oh no! I have been cast out from the temple of TrickDacy! Oh woe is me!

You mean “Hear, hear.”

I’m not alone here

Absolutely not.

You’re very much not the first person to think you’re better than other people because you look down on them enjoying something you already saw.

And you’re not the first person to mistakenly believe you’re making a post better by whingeing about how bored you are by it.

In fact, the only thing more boring than a repost is someone thinking they’re original when they’re complaining about reposts. Get over yourself. You’re not the only one reading the internet. Someone else might be one of today’s lucky 10000. https://xkcd.com/1053/

You’re so cool.

So glad you contributed. The thread is so much better for your input.

This comment is the most exciting thing I’ve read on Lemmy all year long! I can’t wait to talk about something else! Whoopeee! Yay!

It’s obvious that there’s 1760 yards in a mile.

There’s 22 yards in a chain, which we can all remember because of the 22 yard line in rugby.

There are 10 chains in a furlong, which fans of metric can’t complain about.

There are 8 furlongs in a mile, just like there are 8 pints in a gallon.

And 22x10x8 = 11x10x16 and 11 is easy to multiply by in your head, so it’s really very simple to get to 1760.

I used to find exactly that, but I blocked the ani.social instance and its barely any now.

Go in settings, tap Blocks and at the bottom, add a blocked instance: ani.social

Occasionally someone makes an unsavoury community elsewhere, so I block those when they come up - tap through to the community and tap the sidebar and you can tap the Block Community button.

False. The demand has been created. While there is demand, there will be supply, China or no China.

That’s… that’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.

Mild discounts, yes. Cheap again? No.

I agree that agreeing to stand next to the dementia riddled pedophile rapist felon was the obvious thing to avoid.

This is the worst thing I have ever read.

I regret reading it. It didn’t get better. You made the right call.

I have seen many, many metre sticks. Precisely zero of them did not have cm markings on them.
