    No. They both measure the exact same thing. Watts are a measure of power (the rate at which energy is converted to work), and so is horsepower. There is no difference except that one is a nice even metric unit, the other is an imperial one; they can both be freely converted into one another. Strictly speaking neither makes more sense than the other except that metric measures convert into one another along factors of ten which makes them more convenient.

    Most German car makers measure their power in Kilowatts.

    Wtf is wrong with that person, the quiet roommates are the best ones. They ain't the type to have a party on the night you need your fucking sleep for an exam the next day.

    I barely had more than 5 conversations with my roommate last year, shit was awesome and neither of us had a problem. I guess some people are just under the opinion that your roomy has to be your BFF?

    I actually posted this once in a forum as a joke. Little did I know he would soon actually die.

    (Another funny story, some guy kicked me out of his linkshell and I cursed his name, a few days later he died IRL from a car crash. It was pretty freaky. That's what he gets for messing with me!)

    I had one of these calculators in elementary. I would cheat at math by pretending it was an unsuspecting crayon box on my desk.

    Smart enough to beat out teachers but dumb enough that you can't add 2+2.

    Actually it was out of laziness. I know how to add/multiply/divide etc. obviously but on those lame elementary school tests of 423x933 or whatever I'd just punch in the numbers instead of doing it on paper and wasting time. It's just a time saver. What do you think calculators were invented for? Convenience! Most teachers let you use them since it doesn't magically give you the answer to anything important, but some teachers are pricks and that's where my Crayola Calculator comes in handy.
