        I hope you are joking. There are no decimals in standard measuring systems. Decimals are a Communist plot. ;-)

            The steel that I cut has thickness measured in millimeters, the program wants it in fraction inches, and the torch spacing is in decimal inches. It’s a catastrophe but Im getting pretty good at in/mm conversion

    Coloradan here. This tweet was a joke response from the sheriff’s department to a previous incident where they described a large boulder the size of a large boulder blocking the road.

      Update: I was wrong. The officer meant to say “the size of a small car”. The “larger boulder the size of a large boulder” tweet came later as a joke reference to this one.

      Probably meant to write ‘the size of a large car’ originally?

    Would you rather fight a large small boulder, or a small large boulder?

      This reminds me of the joke about the little person psychic who escaped jail.

      They’re a small medium at large.

        Flows a bit better if you just use little psychic instead of little person psychic. Or maybe short psychic so it’s not as obvious.

      50? 50! I can’t imagine that large boulder the size of a small boulder is the same size as 50 of these?

      Nah, this is what happens when society is more concerned with sensationalism than factuality.

    It was a little boulder, such a little boulder, but it reminded me of a large boulder, yeah just in miniature size.

      No, it’s clearly the size of a small boulder
