Mini rants for everyone!

[Lunar]

I was supposed to call work today. Woke up this morning and couldn't talk. Good thing I still have to go in to get my check.

[Evan of Phrygia]

Hey, uh.

Is it bad to lose 10 pounds in a little over a month?

Because i, well, did.

[Commie Bat]

Welp I bombed that Spanish oral, I mentioned previously. Reason why; apparently I have an accent.

I now know who I dislike the most.

Spanish isn't a fun language to learn. : (

How many kilograms is 10 pounds worth ? 4.5 kg ?

I dunno, that doesn't sound like too much. Just enough weight to get worried I'd say. But don't take my word for it, I'm not exactly a doctor :V

It's the hardest language, in my opinion.

I'm also quite awful in it, as well.

Basically 5 kg, yeah. Although it's not a realistic conversion because weight is pounds, kilograms is relative to mass. The situation in question pretty much deals with both so it makes no difference. But yeah, i'm concerned. I've been eating and everything. Sure i wanted to lose weight, but not by accident.

[General-jwj]

I do not think we're talking about the same kilograms. A kilogram is a kilogram. If you weight 65 kilograms in America, you weight 65 kilograms here. They're not volts, they're not Newtons, they"re Kilograms. They're used to determine how heavy shit is. Don't try and justify your use of non-metric units by throwing around words like that. You confuse me.

That is mass. You basically defined it for me. A constant that describes the amount of matter in an object. It's the same everywhere.

Pounds refer to weight. The amount of gravity that is exerted on an object by earth. Pounds is inconstant based on the planet or level of gravity you are currently being exerted, but the conversion i found puts the relativity of pounds to kilograms correctly. So therefore it is unimportant in this discussion.

Imo, due to the pounds necessity to convert for each amount of gravity, kilograms should be the more commonly used unit for finding how someone weighs.

That is what i was taught in my physics class.

From a practical perspective, it is almost always the weight of an object that is measured. This weight is then converted to mass, e.g. kilograms, using a constant conversion factor which ignores local variations in gravity--the corrections due to these variations are typically much smaller than the precision of the original measurement. So in everyday situations mass and weight end up being related by simply a constant factor, making them equally valid for comparing relative mass.

Fair enough, i don't even know why i brought up mass and weight in the first place.

Oh yeah. physics test tomorrow and the only day i got to study is going to be spent being sick, maybe studying for like ten seconds.

I don't care. I have the metric unit, I am right D:<

And godfuckingdammmit while I'm at it I'm just gonna rant about how fed up I am today for no reason. I just got this feeling since this afternoon when I turned my computer on that I couldn't take any more fucking america for now. I can't take anymore of those fucking elections, of those fucking dumbass fascist politicians, or those fucking dumbass moronic politicians, or those fucking pounds or those fucking degrees farenheit or those fucking feet or those fucking inches or whatever the fuck is the latest fad or fucking starbucks or fucking subway or fucking any american shit. I can't take it anymore. I can't. I'm gonna fucking turn my computer off and go to sleep and hope I don't have to deal with any of this shit when I wake up.

No idea why I feel like this today it's probably just a mood.

so you spout off about everything that most americans on this site probably hate (with the exception of units, but that's just the idiocy of people not agreeing on a single fucking unit for ANYTHING)

ok, that makes sense

anyways...i know have excessive ranting today, but this is probably the fifth time i've had a dizzy spell, and now i'm just a touch pissed now.
why the hell does it feel like at every given minute i'm going to pass out, or go into a phase of epilepsy
and why the fuck won't it just happen? Regardless of all this shit, i have yet to lose consciousness.

stupid ambivalence

You ninja copied my feelings exactly! Except, I cannot take phucking Finland either, or anything for that matter! EVERYTHING HAS MY RAGE. D:<

psych test tomorrow oh and also a band concert tomorrow too which means I have to practice a bit morre 'cause I suck
but wait I need to study for psych too

...this is why you shouldn't put tests on friday <_<

By band, i'm going to take a few leaps of faith here

1) it's a symphony orchestra or regular orchestra
2) you play the violin and/or viola

It's also possible that i'm completely wrong.

[Cyril]

jazz band
guitar

sorry, haven't touched my viola in 2 years because I'm too lazy to tune it nowadays.
Which should be a rant: my viola doesn't have any goddamn fine tuners. So I can only tune it with pegs. Even if it's a tiiiiny bit off.
Well yes it makes the thing sound better, but it's way too much effort for me <_<

[CrazyLee]

Already taken...

Always... ALWAYS... taken. ALWAYS.

Oh, and to show how desperate I'm feeling, I found out some girl I know in another state got dumped by her boyfriend, and the first thing I thought was "Maybe I can hook up with her now," and started plotting to get with her.

Someone please hit me with a brick please.

[Zenia]

AUUUUUUGH!!! My top left wisdom tooth hurts so much. When I had the work done last week, they put a clamp on the wisdom tooth to stretch the rubber dam in my mouth. It must have damaged the tooth (I can feel what seems like a hole on the outside of it) and now it is almost throbbing.

I called the dentists office to see about an extraction, but my dentist wants me to try doing a warm salt water rinse twice a day for the next few days to see if it gets any better. I don't think it will though. I think it needs to come out.

[Serbia Strong]

Meh failed a project, but I don't really give a shit anyway.

[Tiger In A Tie]

Accidentally blew 70k coins on a slot machine on a facebook app :c

[Cyril]

It's 10 PM and I should be studying for my psych test tomorrow.

Emphasis on should.

[Ariosto]

The amount of newbies making the same threads of always these days annoys me. Greatly.

[Cyril]

^that's because furries

Welp I bombed that Spanish oral, I mentioned previously. Reason why; apparently I have an accent.

I now know who I dislike the most.

¿Qué acento? ¿De España, México? ¿De dónde?

Además, no eres el único que lo piensa. Muchas personas que conozco también afirman que el español es difícil (y no los culpo).
