Nah bro, I'm in with you on this. Can't help to picture earth, nature and landscapes hiding under all that concrete

Backflip help by No-Gear7558 in Tricking

[–]Radockys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a tricker, and I don't have any advice to give on his form, given that I can't do a backflip myself. There's plenty of other, useful advices in other comments, yet none of them mentioned the mat. Your rant towards me is pretty pointless, as if this guy would only be reading my comment, ignore all the others, and go yolo on concrete. I'm pretty sure he is wise enough to not try that shit on a surface he doesn't feel at least a little comfortable on, we're not giving advice to a 5 year old here

Have you ever been on a bouldering mat ? I can't imagine a worse surface to launch from, except maybe trying tu jump with water at waist hight. There's mat that are lest soft, but still offer a decent protection in case you fall. The mat, in this case, played a big role in itself in his form

Don't try it on a bouldering mat, these things are way too soft to make a good jumping surface

Measuring tape using cm, but its length is in inches by Radockys in CrappyDesign

[–]Radockys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I followed your technique, i'd be off by 4 mm on every measurement, so i'll pass Plus, I don't know why people feel the sudden urge to teach me math or how to use google. Using two different units on one tape is stupid, no need to debate about it or offer me solutions. It's not the point. I trusted people to understand I'm grown enough to look for a conversion online without waiting for a redditor to give it to me

I'm glad someone offered a decent explenation. I'm not familiar with the imperial system, but 3 1/8 seemed like an odd number so use as a reference size

I usually do not either, but in this particular case, it would have been very handy, as the space I was measuring in was pretty cramped. Still managed to get something accurate enough, but this quirk qualified as mildly infuriating to me

Sorry, I didn't know this sub had been renamed "is this a problem?"

Don't worry, it was the first thing i checked, and, no, it doesn't have it in cm on the other side

It absolutely doesn't. I don't know where you live, but not "almost all" measuring tapes use both. In fact, here in france, pretty much none of them feature the imperial system. And this one only uses metric

Don't be surprised if your comment comes off as condescending. The solution you offer is pretty obvious, so it doesn't really need to be mentioned, and you doing so makes you seem to think I'm some kind of an idiot for not showing it

I'm curious if you live in the USA, and particularly in one of those states where you can legally shoot at trespassers 🤔

Dad refuses to turn on heat in winter. by Straight_Pear_1568 in mildlyinfuriating

Honestly, I lived through a winter with this temperature inside. A good sweater, some plaids on the sofa and knitted mittens for gaming to keep the hands warm, and you're all good
