One of my relatives owes me several hundred dollars I will probably never get back; this was less about Christmas dinner and more about whether he'd be able to make rent a couple times but I'd still agree this is super solid advice

Pssh I'm all about everyone else doing the cooking. This year I'm just making the turkey, cranberry sauce, gravy and a yule log for dessert. I delegated everything else to my mom, mother in law and my friends mom which is saving me not only a ton of money but a ton of time too. Anywho, I like this one quote:Me [40M] with my Wife [40F] of 10 years, disappointing anniversary gift.

That's super cute but why did the 40 year old moron post on Reddit about it.

Me [25 M] and my GF [26 F] of 5 years, use different units for the weather (F vs C) and might be heading for a break up over itquote:I'm British and my girlfriend is from the USA. Whenever the temperature comes up she will always describe it in Fahrenheit and I will ask her to say it again in Celsius. quote:Why shouldn't she just learn Celsius? quote:But I don't understand why I am the one who should stop here and not her?

They need to use whichever country's standard they're in. He says she's "from" the US, so I assume they're in England. Therefore, he's right, they should use Celsius.

You don't expect people to stop using aspects of their dialect even when they move. Or, for example, C is lab standard. So I use it in the lab. If someone came to visit me in the lab and said, "It's a hundred loving degrees outside!" I wouldn't tell them it's 38 degrees, thank kew. Also brits use F all the drat time still. Also, he doesn't "respect" her subjective experience of the weather? gently caress off, guy's a loving douche

It's not hard to just learn both, you can do rough conversion in your head. Double a temp, cut off a tenth of it, add 32 and you're at Fahrenheit. reverse the process and you have Celsius. If someone gets mad over one or the other calmly explain that both are terrible so who gives a poo poo, and if they really wanted to be correct they'd use kelvin. Also England needs to sort their poo poo out, the whole mixing metric and imperial units is terrible. Like how do you still use miles and feet and pints when you're a European country. ranbo das fucked around with this message at 18:39 on Dec 13, 2016 |

As someone from the US that lives in England my definitive answer to this is who cares? It's raining outside anyway always and forever.

It's OK we still use miles. Pick posted:when it's hot I think you must be referring to stuff like the expression "it must be a hundred degrees out here". That's just some weird hangover phrase, I bet most people don't even realise it refers to Fahrenheit, they think it's just an exaggeration on Celsius. Never met anybody who still uses Fahrenheit. Most people don't even understand it.

Like how frequently and specifically do you even talk about the temperature that you're having constant arguments over the goddamn units. 'It's going to be hot today', crisis loving averted.

I don't think she's in England. This is a retarded internet relationship we are dealing with here. Evidence... quote:She says reading relationship advice just upsets her now and makes her want to beat me over the compute until whatever 'advice' she's been reading sinks into my brain. Pretty sure that is just "over the computer" with a missing "r". She is still in the US. Also they are both idiots.

It's based off the boiling & freezing points of one of the most common substances on our planet. this is a good thing for scientific stuff but doesn't really matter when it comes to measures of human comfort. everything above 30c on the celsius scale is "potentially deadly" whereas fahrenheit gives you 120 glorious degrees of subtle distinction. really it's about whatever system you're used to so long as you don't try to assert that your preferences are objectively superior like a horrible nerd probably boyfriend is one of those infuriating idiots who believes that rationality = more better and will doggedly stick to any sort of petty argument so long as they believe they're being logically correct boner confessor fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Dec 13, 2016 |

Most of the water on the planet doesn't freeze at 0 or boil at 100 though. It's pretty arbitrary. Kelvin or Rankine for life. edit: lol i'm part of the problem sorry, this thread moves loving fast when measurement is at stake, leaving this up in shame

Basically what it comes down to is that if you're thinking about severing because of the kind of argument that causes a derail in the r/relationships thread you should probably go ahead and loving do it because that's a loving weak-sauce relationship I can only imagine what the comment thread on that one would have looked like if he hadn't deleted it (this thread, it would have looked like this thread)
