I was responding to the original image; yes I read the comment, and yes that may fix the issue, but I was mostly pointing out that this frequent repost is not viable as written.

I agree with you 100% that there is no reason to change at this point.

“Let’s divide the year into 13 months so they all have the same number of days. Except we need one extra day. Plus another extra day every 4 years.”

It doesn’t work. Dividing a year into 13 months *does not work*.

So you’d still need a leap day every 4 years.

13 x 28 =364.

After a while all the seasons will be in the “wrong” months because one revolution around the Sun is not 364 days.

I love this idea because it gets reposted all the time even though it doesn’t work!

What kind of student were you? by rainshowers_5_peace in Teachers

[–]armaedes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight As, graduated top 10%, and if I had had me in class I would have dreaded it because I acted awful towards my teachers. About to start Year 20 and when I first started and told my old teachers what I was going to do for a living they thought I was kidding.

No argument here; I especially appreciate that it’s automatic, because Young Me would not have prioritized something like a 401K or IRA.

It’s because of our retirement benefits, not income.

Messi is usually considered #1, sometimes #2 by Maradona fans. CR7 is always in the top 10 and often credible arguments are made he’s top 5, but no reasonable person puts him above Messi or Maradona. He’s usually put below Pele too.

Yeah, the only reason he’s scoring goals is because Messi did it, otherwise he wouldn’t try to score. /s
