See, now there is a Dwight Schrute fan fiction origin story if I ever saw one.

If we want to get pedantic here it didn’t technically “shatter”, it just broke cleanly in half… at least that’s what they’ll say when you try to return it lol

Yeah it is basically a safety ruler. Plastic ones that shatter can have a lot of sharp jagged edges, which isn’t great for kids.

That’s not being pedantic. If it wasn’t shatterproof it would have shattered.

Is that similar to when I buy no more tears shampoo but I still cry myself to bed?

You need to drink the bottle’s contents to stop the tears. Just to be certain, stir 8n some Draino first.

It’s not “tear-free” as in it won’t make you cry; it’s “tear-free” as in it won’t knot your hair and tear it when you brush it.

Baby shampoos have special formulation that are way less irritating if you happen to get some in your kid’s eye. It’s not zero irritation, but it’s way less than a normal soap or shampoo.

When I buy a shatterproof ruler, I expect it to be forged by the dark lord himself and destroyable only in the fires of Mt. Doom.

“One ruler to rule them” is a bit repetitive but I’ll allow it.

Create post

Internet as an art

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain “hmmm” and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to “hmmmm” etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won’t be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.
