Fahrenheit is more about measuring temperature of air while Celsius is more about measuring temperature of water.

^I never understood fahrenheit 

I learned: that there’s a way to make 0,999… = 1

and: how to play part of Here Comes The Sun on the guitar

The following words and phrases are not allowed on personalized license plates in Illinois: 

PUBERTY 

GOLFSEX

 

(Source with several more examples)  

These two I just can’t get over. Why would you want your license plate to say “puberty?”

1) Gmail automatically creates a new email thread after 100 messages. 

2) Five not-overly-busy-but-very-silly people can require up to 75 emails just to agree on a time and place just to get together and hang out.

Fahrenheit has more numbers between so less decimals are needed than Celsius.
Both are now defined by the water a sea level which doesn’t matter on tall mountains.

Well, the problem is that we’re not normal in the slightest. And absurdly proud of it. a-hard-days-night-john-1

Well, the problem is that we’re not normal in the slightest. And absurdly proud of it. But not anywhere else   

Normality depends on where you are. An example is that you have a normal BB account since you aren’t appart of any fancy pants member groups, you are just a regular member like the vast majority. You are atypical in your post count compared to the majority of users. normal and abnormal are circumstantial anyway

Regardless of normal or not, did you look at the video?

There’s a difference between seats and chairs. Chairs have a back on them, seats don’t. A stool would be a seat.

I love the Vultures, the section up to 1:14 in the video could be my family in how we go abut arranging anything, and to top it all they are Beatley moments and could have been Beatles.

I was watching Thomas The Tank Engine (don’t ask) and I thought the narrator’s voice sounded familiar, turns out, it was Ringo.

Also Michael Nesmith’s mom invented White-Out.

Ringo did the voiceover for the first series. I was gutted when I sat down as a kid and that Michael guy was doing it instead a-hard-days-night-ringo-13.  Ringo’s voice was perfect.

^

There’s only one exception: French nationals who are resident of Monaco do have to pay personal income tax which is computed according to the principles of French tax law. The amount payable is paid directly to the French government. The Principality of Monaco doesn’t levy capital gains tax nor wealth tax.

It is possible to tattoo the whites of your eyes.
