242 dicks

In a row?!

[arbitraryvalue@sh.itjust.works]

I assume they're erect but are they end to end or side to side?

[nocturnalmorning@lemmy.world]

This is a terrible measurement unit, even worse than the one we came up with in college for rockets, where we used elephants. Dicks come in all shapes and sizes.

Measure twice, cut once!

That’s why the standard dick was introduced

[nocturnalmorning@lemmy.world]

No, that's just Dick, he's a good guy.

[dwemthy@lemmy.world]

In parallel!

[dasus@lemmy.world]

Good guy, very standard.

Try not to suck any dicks on the way to the parking lot!

[grass@sh.itjust.works]

my forst thought would have been dicks lumber down the street but I dont know if they put their name on the wood

[someguy3@lemmy.world]

Really nailed in good there.

What’s even more annoying is that a 2x4 (pronounced two-by-four) isn’t 2 by 4 inches. It’s 1.5 x 3.5 (sometimes even a 1/16 under).

It’s all because of some unfinished lumber bullshit, but it’s still not as confusing as pipe and hose fitting sizing at least.

[perishthethought@lemm.ee]

37???!?!?

[chozo@fedia.io]

pronounced two-by-four

Unless you're in the south, in which case it's pronounced "tuba-fur".

silly americans have units of time where there are 60 seconds in a minute, 24 hours in a day, 365 days in a year, and every four years there's an extra leap year! LOL backwards hicks
