Welcome to Gaia! ::

Temperature conversion is hard. I think I kind of remember going over in school though.

You know, Celsius seems to make more sense. How come we don't use it?

And does it really vary? I mean, I couldn't just subtract sixty to get it? Why does it change like that?

The same reason you can't add 10 to a measurement in miles and get it's equivalent in kilometers. A degree Celsius is not equal to a degree Fahrenheit anymore than a centimeter is equal to an inch. The difference in temperature with every degree Celsius is equal to nearly twice (or 1. cool that of the difference in temperature measured by a degree Fahrenheit. Additionally, because each scale begins (or places zero) at a different temperature, 32 must be added or subtracted in conversion.

Yes, Celsius makes more sense. *grin* That's why the rest of the world uses it, after all. We don't because we're stubborn.

Stupid next-to-each-other buttons.

I hate bothering with measuring of any kind. I'm basically incapable of it. I just kind of group that kind of stuff into "physics or physics related" because then I don't have to deal with it. I know the common measurements found on an average ruler. Distance? Height? I couldn't tell you unless someone measured it for me. Miles, kilometers? Man, I just drive.

I don't watch television but I have seen a few episodes of Family Guy. I didn't see that episode though.


Gah I just got a job interview at a department store I don't even like. I need a job though. I think I should take my lip ring out, but if I do, I won't be able to put it back on. Honestly I don't know how to take it out...

Yeah I expect it to go badly. I don't even want that job but I'm not allowed to be picky. I think I'll wait to see how the interview goes. If they tell me I have the job if I take it out then I will find some sort of way to take it out.

What kind of a place do you work at?

My friend just got a job at a grocery store. He works in the fish department. Dead fish creep me out so bad I could never do that. I wouldn't mind doing produce but I'm not really qualified to work as a grocer of any sort because I have whiplash.

Ugh I just realized something. Doing any sort of cashier work would kill my neck... I can't stand for long periods of time..... I never thought about that...

>.<

Maybe I should just quit trying to get a job right now........
