7.74 inches was my favorite hint that it is satire.
You don't measure your penis with a digital depth gauge?
Only when sounding
Everybody knows real men measure their penises in metric
The meta joke (sorry for my German accent)
No but now you made me want to get out my micron gauge.
Yeah, exactly. This is pure satire.
That it's near indistinguishable from reality at this point, is a tragedy.
Implied +/- 10 thou accuracy isn't appropriate.
In my case, that would be the difference between nonexistence or double size.
Measuring your penis down to the hundredth of an inch; totally not insecure at all.
Lists penis length to hundredths of an inch, won't list height, only posts selfies of himself sitting down.
It's clear from the text he's 5'7"
This is clever, I had to look again and literally laughed out loud when I saw it.
One thing turning people off is certainly that they're imagining they have hundreths of an inch accuracy instead of just writing 7 3/4.
The more accurate the number looks the more realer it is! That's stience, you rube!
You got something here. That is how Americans or people used to the imperial system would write this. This is satire, but not from someone that uses the imperial (inch) system regularly. Here in Germany, you don't use fractions like that like Americans do.
The fuck is atlanto-mediterannean ?
He wants to say he’s white, but not one of those swarthy Greeks or Italians that make his bloodline impure.
sigh he's from Atlantis
If I remember right, there are only 3 countries that have coastlines at the Mediterranean Sea AND the Atlantic ocean. Spain, France and Morocco.
My guess is, he uses such a weird definition because he is North African but wants to highlight his not being brown, because that doesn't go well with his white supremacy.
all three of those being famous for their pale complexions, of course.
Doesn't matter because nobody is applying to be his girlfriend.
Gibraltar
Oooo that true. Don't forget the Rock.
There's a certain level of racist that gets really involved in classifying humans into small subcategories so they can know how racist they should be to each one. Used to be popular with "scientific racism" in the 19th century, but you don't see it much anymore.
It's extra weird.
If I had to guess, after seeing this weird shit and watching too much pseudo-archaology debunking stuff lately: he means the descendants of the Mediterranean and Atlantian people. There's a crazy group of people who think Atlantis is real, and either had a worldwide advanced culture, or at least through the Mediterranean.
The Atlantis myth was heavily accepted by the Nazis as the ancestors of the Aryan people, which is why the Aryans are "so much better" than everyone else. It is still a popular tool to belittle ancient people and to say their accomplishments had to be done instead by this white Atlantian group instead.
Armenian.
It means one of their grandparents is from Italy, otherwise it'd be "Northern European".
I refuse to believe this isn't a hilarious joke account.
Yeah this shit reads like an onion article lol
Probably, but then, there are people out there that would unironically post shit like this.
Anyone here ever play Disco Elysium? That Atlanto-Mediterranean sounds like something Measurehead would say.
I'd be willing to wager that the Venn diagram of Lemmy users and people who have played it is basically just a circle
OCCIDENTAL HAPLOGROUP B4 IS DONE GIVING ORDERS AROUND HERE. THE INFLUENCE OF THE "HAM SANDWICH RACE" IS WANING.
"Ancap" 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Wtf is wrong with this dude.
Obsessed with comparison.
E: if anyone reading this has intrusive thoughts of comparing yourself to others, stop that shit. Comparison to others is a killer of all joy, and nobody cares except you.
He learned it from Daddy Trump.
I thought inches didn't convert easily to decimal...?
I love that he’s rounded it to two decimal places. As if a woman would say, “7.7? That’s it?”
yeah, there is no way the measurement instrument was precise enough to make that last decimal significant
He just wants to filter out all the women who understand sig figs because he can't handle dating someone smarter or more educated than him.
Also, if he was going to measure in fucking inches he should've just called it "3/4"
He measured on a heartbeat to ensure it was as big as possible
during high tide
Digital calipers use decimal inches rather than fractional. I’m guessing that was what he used to measure himself.
I'm thinking he used his eyes and threw out a number that he liked.
After reading this, I want to convert his inches with my left foot
This is one place where the metric system really shines. If I say I'm 6.5", it sounds like I'm desperate for that last half inch. If I say I'm 17cm, that's just what it is.
