Okay, weird story. I was at the post office three weeks ago trying to mail a package to my cousin. The lady behind the counter puts it on the scale and goes “that’s 20 kilograms.” And I’m standing there like… is that a lot? Should I be impressed? Concerned? That moment bugged me for days. … Read more
So here’s what happened. I was trying to buy a monitor stand online for my desk. The listing said “7 inches tall.” I stared at my screen for like ten minutes. Seven inches. Is that tall? Short? I had no clue. Could’ve been anything. Ordered it anyway. Thing showed up and it was way smaller … Read more
Last Tuesday. Making soup. Recipe says “2 quarts chicken broth.” Just standing there. Staring at my measuring cups. How many cups in a quart again? Cook like three times a week. Still blank. Had to google it. Chicken all over my hands. Everyone forgets this though. Made me feel way better. The Answer – How … Read more
My nephew asked me last weekend why Pringles come in that weird tube. He’s seven. I told him “I don’t know, buddy, that’s just how they do it.” But then I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Why DOES Pringles use that specific tube? What even are the Pringles can dimensions? Is there a reason or … Read more
So this is embarrassing. I bought six different water bottles last month. SIX. All because I couldn’t figure out what water bottle dimensions actually work for my life. Started with a giant 64oz bottle someone at the gym had. Looked impressive. Made me feel like I was serious about hydration. Could barely fit it in … Read more
Okay, so last week I’m at 7-Eleven at like 2am (don’t judge, I had a deadline). Standing there in the cooler aisle staring at Red Bull cans. And it hits me – I have no idea what the actual Red Bull can dimensions are. Like, I’ve been drinking these things for years, but how big … Read more
Last Tuesday I’m scrolling Amazon looking at bookcases. Found this perfect one – dark wood, four shelves, exactly what I needed. Description says “40 inches tall.” Stared at my laptop screen. How tall is 40 inches? Like, actually? Is that short? Tall? Medium? Could be a stepstool or could be a refrigerator for all I … Read more
So here’s what happened. I was trying to buy a ring online for my girlfriend’s birthday. The website said “2 cm diameter.” I stared at my screen for like five minutes trying to picture how big is 2 cm. Is that tiny? Medium? Could’ve been anything for all I knew. Ended up buying the wrong … Read more
Three weeks ago, hosting Thanksgiving at my place for the first time. Twenty people coming over. I’m standing in my kitchen at 6 AM staring at my coffee maker like it personally offended me. Got this 12-cup Mr. Coffee my mom gave me years ago. Used it maybe ten times total. Always just made enough … Read more
Last month, I’m scrolling through Marketplace trying to buy a used gym setup, and this guy’s selling a complete weight set. Listed as “500 kg of plates and equipment – great deal!” I’m sitting there thinking, okay cool, but how much is that actually? I’m American. I think in pounds. Always have. Kilograms might as … Read more
