    in countries that use commas as decimal points, periods are used instead of commas. so

    1,000,000.00 = 1.000.000,00

    Considering a period is used as a break and a comma is a pause, it makes a hell of a lot more sense to do 100,000,000.12. You pause between each chunk of the integer value, then break before continuing on with the fractional value of the number. But hey the US is stupid, always do the opposite of what they do.

    Have a fractional image.

    They're designed to be eyeballed or estimated without precision instruments. You'd be far more accurate trying to measure 15 inches as opposed to 38cm without any tools, for example. Conversions are irrelevant to their purpose.

    Idk why I posted that to RIT, so here's a picture from Reddit.

    Nah, fuck that. Two wrongs don't make a right.
    She didn't have her shit lined up to get out of the relationship so she plays the dude? C'maaan. You mean to tell me she didn't have any family or friends or anything and couldn't have got the fuck out? Couldn't have LEFT ol' dude for Jason, nothing?

    I mean, shit. If not, she wasn't really in a position where she needed to be takin' side dong was she?


    And don't get it twisted, if all this info is true I'm not sayin' abusive bf is in the right here. Fuck him, that shit is unacceptable and I hope they put his ass under the jail; but at the same time that doesn't give someone carte blanche to do dirt in my eyes.
