Men v. Women

By dr k (Tue Apr 24, 2007 at 03:51:44 PM EST) the thermostat (all tags)

Me: "I think the nanny turns the heater off."

Wife: "No, I did that."

"Why did you turn it down all the way?"

"Because it was too hot."

"But if you turn it down all the way, it won't come on unless it is freezing cold."

"It was dark and I couldn't see."

"Couldn't you turn it down a little?"

Many people don't make the connection: Thermostat->thermostasis->same temperature. I leave the climate control in my car on 20°C all year round because that's the temperature I like it to be in the car. Oh, and I have found that the aircon uses less fuel than having the window open.

...since I have the benefit of a college education, but...
"That the fan uses up the oxygen in the room and creates fatal levels of carbon dioxide..."
"That fanblades chop up air particles (i.e. oxygen molecules) so that the air is no longer breathable..."
...L...O...L!
