Dumbass Of The Day

Pretty sure we solved the whole conversion thing when we started making tape measurers and rulers with both inches and centimeters on them. Genius move.

 

I think that led to an 8.6% drop in productivity at the ruler/tape measure plant when they had to stop production and re-tool the machines to include the metric measurements.

 

The big question is do chicks want to hear, I have 12 inches or I have 30.48 centimeters?

 

OR is it 30 cms or 11.811 inches? No need to be shy Gid. it may not quite be a foot-long but it's still pretty impressive.

 

In your case . . . it would be 30.48 millimeters.

 

God damn it Doug.

 

Nice to see you guys are figuring out Metric.......just took Gidi to tell us the size of his pecker and everyone jumps on the Metric Bandwagon.....lol

 

Tons aren’t metric. Go figure, indeed.

 

Actually they are, or at least the one mentioned is. The Tonne is the common name of the Megagram "Mg", or 1000 kgs, and in the US it is referred to as the Metric Ton. Elsewhere it is Tonne.

Bombs are measured by how much weight in "Tonnes" of TNT would be needed to release the same energy. A kilotonne, or kiloton, (kt) is equivalent to the amount of energy released by 1000 Tonnes of TNT or 1,000,000 kgs, or 1 Gigagram (Gg) of TNT.

Actually the Tonne in TNT is simply just taking the weight in kilograms and dividing by 1000.

 

Some guys use the eggplant emoji....I use the whale.

 

Here is the winning 2-pt conversion in OT. After review the play stands as they couldn't tell if the ball touched OOB before crossing the plane. This has nothing to do with the pylon.

 

WOW.........that is a HUGE Upset Joe........it looked out of bounds to me.

 

It was OOB before hitting the pylon but the thing is the ball is diagonal and the tip seems like it may have crossed the goal line.

 

It was one of those replays that, if the call on the field was "out of bounds", there wasn't enough visual evidence to overturn it either.

 

Yup. There was no view that showed either definitely. Either way the dumb ass was the Penn State guy that Todd Gurley emulated. So next dumbass is Todd Gurley.

 

Today's award goes to the guy who was in charge of designing the label. I do believe he got the punctuation wrong. Makes it sound like Gidion found an income source for his....ummmmm.....hobby.

 

This one is kinda old, from 2008, but I just ran across it (and I it gave me a pretty good laugh).

Police have arrested a man suspected of leaving greasy, graphic imprints on the windows of stores, churches and schools in a small Nebraska town.

A 35-year-old man was caught in the act by police early Wednesday morning, Cherry County Attorney Eric Scott said Friday. The man hasn't been charged yet, but authorities believe he is the vandal some townsfolk have dubbed the "Butt Bandit."

Beginning in spring of 2007, a mystery vandal visited businesses at night, pressing his naked behind — sometimes his groin, sometimes both — on windows. The marks were made with lotion or petroleum jelly, and while police had earlier worried copycat criminals were getting involved, Scott said they now believe it's "the act of a lone deviant."

"This isn't normal behavior for Valentine, Neb.," Scott said. "It's an embarrassment for the hardworking people who live here."

The man was spotted by police about 3:30 a.m. Wednesday and arrested without incident, Scott said. The suspect appears to be the same man caught on a surveillance camera at the middle school last year, he said.

Valentine, a town of about 2,650 in remote north-central Nebraska, lies near the scenic Niobrara River. The city was named one of the top "wilderness" towns in the country last year by National Geographic Adventure magazine.

People from around the country send Valentine's Day cards to the city's post office so they can be mailed out with the word "Valentine" stamped on them.

The past two summers, the bandit struck business after business, window after window.

He stopped over the fall and winter.

During one particularly brazen session, virtually all the windows at a local hotel were imprinted.

 

Probably cause nobody triple dog dared him to do it.
