Imagine it like a car steering wheel.

You’d say turning the wheel to the right turns the car right.

Think of it like this. Like your hand is holding on the top of the steering wheel.

I saw it as

  1. Stick figure in bed
  2. Blowjob
  3. Piledriver
  4. Rest
  5. Blowjob
  6. Resume piledriver

I thought it was funny when i first saw it. I see the whole car thing now after reading the comment. So maybe the stick figure never leaves his house and just gets blowjobs. They could be a sex worker that takes money for letting other stick figures suck their stick. And they are waiting for their next client in-between. Or the stick figure in the first frame is the one giving blowjobs and waiting.

“The 3PO-series protocol droid, also known as the 3PO-series protocol unit, was a model of protocol droid produced by Cybot Galactica sometime prior to the Invasion of Naboo. They were equipped with a TranLang III communication module, and as a result were fluent in over 6 million forms of communication. C-3PO was an example of this model, though he was rebuilt out of spare parts. TC-series protocol droids appeared similar to 3PO units.”

Wookieepedia

There are a ton of 3PO-series droids in the Star Wars universe.

Vader would not look at a 3P0 droid and think “maybe that’s the droid I built as a child and left on a plant in the outer rim”

Same with R2-D2

It’s just for the movie sake that there aren’t 30 CP0s and 50 R2-D2 units running around in the background. “Wait did Biggs just get R2 in his x-wing?” No, it’s some completely different droid I’ve never seen. Some things have to be adapted for the movie.

As for difficulty, no harder than building like a PC. If there are a ton of CP0 units, he simply takes working parts from a dozen broken ones and pieces them together. He’s a child, they fib and stretch the truth. He could have just attached new legs to the unit that needed only legs and then went through the setup process of “programing” him.

He didn’t Tony Stark C3P0. He pieced together a robot from pre-made CP0 scrap parts.

I mean, technically, anything can go illiterate

We have had weather modification technology for 20+ years.

First known use in war was in 1967, called Operation Popeye.

Now could the government create a category 5 hurricane? Very farfetched.

It’s crazy to think that God intervened at the last possible second.

Like maybe give a hint to the SS that the guy was on the roof?

Like maybe make the gun jam or misfire?

Nope, God said, “I’m going to let the bullet graze his ear, lol. Oh yeah, Corey Comperatore, I’m just not going to intervene on that one…”

Trump could have at least made it in memory of Corey Comperatore. But nope, he’s got to make it about only himself.

Decimeters are great. You should try to use them more.

Something that is like 2.5 ft. I can easily convert to 7.5 decimeters. Then .75 meters. There is no way i could convert 2.5 ft to meters without some serious thinking, and paper would help.

Precise has nothing to do with what units you use. Mm is not more precise than Cm

36.982 mm is 3.6982 cm. They are both as precise as each other.

Humans are much better at knowing an inch or a foot in distance than a yard or a meter.

If I said, draw a line that is 4in or 1 decimeter. You would be closer than trying to draw a meter line.

I work in building in the US. I know an inch and a foot like the back of my hand. I never deal with yards. For yards, I’d just think of it in feet and ×3. Just like I’d do with decimeters.

I know the metric system, but my default unit is US Customary.

If I had to look at a room, I could tell you instantly if it was either 25 or 30 ft. If you asked for meters I couldn’t just say “I know exactly how long a meter is (without thinking about it being basically a yard), that wall is closer to 7 meters than 9 meters”

I’d have to constantly work with meters to do that. Which I don’t.

I’m not against things being gradually changed to metric. A lot of things are in metric. Like a 2L bottle of soda. If you put a pitcher of water in front of me and asked how many liters. I’d have to think of the 2L bottle. Just like if you asked for gallons, I’d think of a milk jug. Now I have a good grip on what 5 gallons is because that’s the standard construction bucket, but 5L is 2.5 2L sodas.

I wouldn’t be nearly as precise if I used metric without decimeters. Inches and Feet are the measurements I use the majority of the time. Even a 100ft wall is a 100ft wall. It’s never referred to as a 33.33 yard wall. Using a metric unit closest to inches and feet is beneficial for me.

1000 centimeters sounds ridiculous

Guess I could have said 1 decameter

1 decimeter is a 1/3 of a foot. Assumed a flamethrower shoots >30ft. 30×3=90. ~100 decimeters.

You could change it to 10 meters easily if you prefer it that way. A third of a foot or 9/10 of a yard. I find it easier to compare it to a third of a foot.

Like I’m 6ft tall. I’m 18 decimeters, or 1.8 meters. Otherwise, I would have said 2 yards or 2 meters.
