Oh so we're in that part of the Internet now? It's good to be home.

 

[donavannj]

761. Nah. That's still pretty close to the tame side of the internet.

 

[Yukari]

762

It really.

REALLY is.

So I managed to do a lot of things yesterday and today. Pretty life changing stuff actually:

Spoiler:

- Still in the process of fixing my Car Insurance. Might have to get a new one sadly.
- Order a pair of glasses and sunglasses at Costco (really cheap glasses there O_o) will get reimbursed from work since it was under $300.
- Got a full physical exam and a flu shot
- Voted for the first time in Seattle, Washington
- Changed my address at USPS from LA to Seattle
- Opened a new checking and savings account at the Boeing Employees' Credit Union (BECU) dropped in $1k in there since the first $500 you put in on both accounts has a 4% Interest rate (anything above is 0.10%)
- Got a $5k new Line of Credit at 8.9%, and a $10k Visa Credit Card at 6.9%

Then today I was able to:
- Find out that my Hard Credit Score was at 780! O_O
- Refinance my car loan from Chase (6.19%) to BECU (3.34%)
- And get new Library Cards from the Seattle Public Library and King County Public Library systems

Sounds like you had a productive two days, Netto.

 

[Netto Azure]

766

Yeah, then we watched that "The Martian" movie. Great stuff.

I hope to get a sauna and full body massage tomorrow too. :o

Sounds fun.

It's really cold here. (31 Degrees outside. x:) I want to just wrap up in a blanket and snuggle with my cat. I need a snuggle partner that isn't a cat.

 

[machomuu]

769

Why? Cats are the best snuggle partners.

Well, second only the bears and ROUSs.

Ah, you American. For a moment there, I was thinking 31 degrees is way too hot to snuggle xD

 

[machomuu]

771

I'd imagine 31 degrees Fahrenheit would be could in most places, not just America.

31 degrees Celsius wouldn't be. It would be pretty darn hot.

 

[machomuu]

773

I'd imagine, but I'm preeeetty sure Yukari's talking Fahrenheit. That's generally the implied measurement when it's not specifically noted- at least, in America it is.

 

[Candy]

774

Yeah, America acting as the majority even tho most of the world uses Celsius instead of Fahrenheit

I hate the metric system

Or is it Imperial?

TEAR THIS SHIP APART

 

[Yukari]

776

It's finally warmed up.

 

[Netto Azure]

777

Justifications for the Imperial system are just wachy and just blatant nationalism.

 

[Yukari]

778

I honestly wish we used the metric system/

 

[machomuu]

I prefer our system, personally. Metric's nice from a mathematical standpoint (hence why it uses the various prefixes), but using inches and feet gives much better reference points and allows for more immediate understanding of what a certain height entails. It's more human, essentially.

The better part is that, if you know what a foot is or a yard is, even without explanation you can say, "Oh, so a foot is about this long" or "Oh, so a yard is probably larger than a foot". It's designed to teach in much the same way as World 1-1. Sticks easier for that reason, too.
