We don't argue about anything, we'll just make a scene out of nothing. She's cool and she gets it right away and we'll just run out screaming at each other. Once we get where nobody can see us we just fall over laughing.
Well, I'm serious in saying that space isn't cold, but I don't make a habit of ruining people's jokes with facts, haha.Zildjin81 said:Huh, guess the dictionary was wrong... interesting...
Oh, I thought you were serious about the space thing.
I totally agree with you that the metric system is better, that wasn't what I was arguing about at all. Any decent middle-school science teacher should be able to explain that mass and weight are two fundamentally different things and have different units of measurement.tkioz said:He was right, you were wrong, the metric system is vastly superior to the imperial (you can't call something standard if only you and two 3rd world nations use it) system is almost every single way. Sorry but anyone who argues that imperial shouldn't be shot like the lame rabid dog it is needs to be punchedbawkbawkboo1 said:Right before I was going to get surgery (for something I'd rather not say) I got into an argument with a doctor. While he was saying that the metric system is better for everything, he said something like "kilograms are a much better way to measure weight than pounds and ounces". I said that, technically, grams are a measure of mass and not weight, and that the official way to measure weight in the SI system is newtons. Also I was on drugs at this point.![]()
or conversly, Star Trek over Star WarsJulianking93 said:Any argument involving Star Wars or Star Trek.
In common vernacular, the mass of an object is often referred to as its weight. The term weight in strict scientific contexts refers to the gravitational force of an object. The same issue could be seen in the usage of pound as well.bawkbawkboo1 said:I totally agree with you that the metric system is better, that wasn't what I was arguing about at all.

"LOOK! I'm telling you, a pyramid has 5 faces! 4 around, and one on the bottom!"
"It's not! It's 4 faces! There's three around and one at the bottom"
This wasn't intended satirically, we were actually shouting this yesterday.
Apparently, Pyramids can have 4 or 5 faces.
Which makes it totally pointless!
I assume you mean a regular tetrahedron, altought a tetrahedron is just a polyhedron with 4 triangular faces, also, it is a pyramid. Pyramids can have any number of faces as long as they are equal to, or, greater than four. So, the side faces, (let's call the total number of faces n), of a pyramind are always n-1, when n=4 or n>4. Also, the number of edges on the base face is always equal to number of side faces. When n gets big enough, the pyramid will start to resemble a cone, and the base face will start to resemble a circle, although, theoretically you only achieve a real cone as n aproaches plus infinity. So, that being said, the tetrahedron is a pyramid like any other, and, if i'm not tistaken, the simplest one. Hope this clarifies.
As for that thread itself, i'm always arguing about stupid shit with my brother.
I can't believe you still remember this. I thought all of the search and destroy therapy took care of our relationship...Apocalypse Tank said:Furburt I thought you or your friend took basic geometry.
Were you guys referring to the shape or the world wonder?
Me and my friends were arguing about 09's game of the year the entire way home...
It was quite interesting and shocking.

EDIT: Oh, and he was not a girl, btwAvP was first...? Seriously?F-I-D-O said:Here is one that I'm constantly dragged into because I enjoy sci-fi
No, Alien came out BEFORE Alien vs Predator
But AvP was first
/insert dates of films' original release date, other assorted time related facts
How do you know that
It's common knowledge
But AvP was first, you just made that up!
Repeat until the other person accepts I am right.
Another one is that a facehugger (still from alien) is NOT A SPACE SPIDER, but essentially a walking embryo, not to mention it does not have the body segments to be a spider Then I'm told a walking embryo would never be in a family movie. This argument is followed by Alien not being a family friendly movie.
Yes, my arguments revolve around being a geek. But they are so much more fun.
You people arn't doing enough punching to the throats.
No, the way he described it was... Do I really need to elaborate on this?Maze1125 said:He could have meant the clitoris, which is essentially an unformed penis, and just been articulating himself badly.A Random Reader said:One, of my friends had an argument with me over...
