so my brother just asked me how many millimetres are in a centimetres, and yesterday he asked me what 5½ inches is in centimetres, and i just want to know what about me made him think id know conversions.

yes, i have a lot of eclectic information in my brain, but its never useful stuff like conversions. theres a reason my friends labelled me the resident mormon expert, and not the one you go to for useful stuff.

#personal #kai rambles #im just #why do people still expect me to know useful stuff #i can explain the debate and theories about how we should define lying and/or deception #or tell you the details of the sinking of the rms britannic #or about moss hills whos a cruise ship musician and saved several passengers during the sinking of the achille lauro #and saved literally every passenger on the oceanos after the crew just like abandoned them and took lifeboats without telling passengers #that the ship was sinking #and hills manage to get people off in the remaining lifeboats and liferafts and then radioed to i think a zimbabwe version of coast guard #it might gave been south africa #he didnt know how to launch lifeboats so he improvised and he also improvised with the radio #where the guy was like what rank are you and he was like im a guitarist we have a bass player and a magician #the captain was on board and did nothing #but yeah two helicopters flew back and forth taking a few passengers to safety before flying back to save more #and they saved everyone on a ship that sank during a storm where the crew had abandoned them #and he was just a guitarist #it's a wild story #moss hills is also #coast have a song called oceanos about it which is a very food song #do you see why its wild to me when oeople think i would have useful knowledge in my brain
