          Thanks to evangelical sex-ed, Joyce may be unfamiliar with female private parts. So Dina’s sexting pix may just be confusing.

                I did once have a friend tell me that she didn’t know what her own butt felt like. And she acted like it was weird that anyone would know that information.

                  That would imply she doesn’t perform basic hygiene upon herself, and possibly requires someone else (parent) to do it for her, no?

                  If you’re doing the basics needed to clean that area after defecating, you’re going to know what your butt ‘feels’ like. If you don’t, then that’s disgusting.

            Ross does seem like a Doomsday prepper type… He probably has a few grand stuffed in a mattress, or in the excavated hole in his backyard for the survival bunker he was probably working on and was planning on enslaving Becky into working on to “cure her of unholiness”.

            But, he also probably boobytraps his property to prevent “DEM HEATHEN GUBMENTS” from sneaking in and taking it.

        Becky’s relaying through Joyce. So it goes something like this:

        *ding*

        JOYCE: Dina wants to know what you’re wearing. (Or maybe what I’m wearing but I’m choosing to assume this was meant for you.)

        BECKY: Tell her, “Nothing, hot stuff.”

        JOYCE: Um, okay, uh, sent… WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?

        BECKY (pulling her shirt off): Well, dang, I can’t lie to my girlfriend. That’s a sin!

        JOYCE: So is… whatever this is! This is a public street! Put your clothes back on! You’ll get pneumonia!

        *ding*

        JOYCE: Dina says put your clothes back on, you’ll get pneumonia!

        BECKY: No she doesn’t, let me see… That says “hypothermia”.

        That…could very well be a problem. Although probably only because of her height. She’s only about…I’m going to go out on a limb and guess 5 ft 2, also known as around 1.55 meters for those who use the metric system (why dear good do we still use US standard here in the US? Metric is so much easier).

          They tried to convert the US to Metric in the late ’70s, but I guess US customary units had too much momentum, the public was apathetic, and Congress stopped funding the effort in the early ’80s.

          Let’s mock a universal standard of measure, because obviously our system based off grain and body parts is so much better. How many rods to the hogshead does your car get?

              There are so many things the US has refused to go with that are objectively easier and better in the long run. People are lazy but even more than that they are scared of change.

              Everyone already knew how to use customary units (sort of), and Metric is easier to use on its own, but nobody wanted to learn how to convert between the two.

              Inertia’s a hell of a drug.

                This. Every argument I have heard on some message board from an american about not changing to metric basically boils down to they already know one system and do not want to have to learn another.

                I have seen some pretty stupid arguments trying to prove the system used in the US is superior, especially any time temperature comes up, as those generally require you to not understand that both systems are not integer based (though often used as such) or do not understand how humidity affects how we feel the air temperature (go from a arid to a humid climate in the winter and you will understand pretty quickly).

                  Yes for all everything except temperature. Fahrenheit is based directly on us humans. As the saying goes: with Fahrenheit, you’re really cold at 0°F and really hot at 100°F; with Celsius, you’re cold at 0°C and dead at 100°C. No one can relate to Kelvin. Outside of extreme climate regions, temperatures range from -10°F to 110°F (120 degree range) at the most. In Celsius that would be -23.3°C to 43.3°C, (60 degree range). Fahrenheit will give you twice the precision of Celsius without even having to use decimals, which allows you to better relate to the air temperature.

                  Distances seem better suited to our scale as well, at least to me. Maybe if anyone used decimeters? But feet tend to be more useful than meters and inches than centimeters.

              The metric system is, on it’s own, easier to use. However, people who already use a different system would need to relearn how to measure, and relearning something is infinitely harder than learning something.

            Metric made / makes business and economic sense. Cars and such end up metric due to the world economy. What killed metric in the US was more culture wars than inertia. There was an active and well orchestraed campaign against it. Like most culture wars, it was a losing battle and metric ended up winning in a lot of uses.

        I’m sure she knows how to consult scholarly journals with regards to what she’s doing, provided someone informs of her the Dewey Decimal Number that corresponds with the subject.

        … no, she doesn’t use the Library of Congress filing system. Because she’s a dinosaur.

          Scholarly journals require familiarity with the relevant controlled vocabulary and indexing system. Dewey is for babies in comparison. All dinosaur materials fit under just 1-2 numbers and even to the right of the decimal could be learned in a matter of days. Dealing with multiple controlled vocabularies is a swamp. Dina has it all under control. She’d be a great cataloger in a university library.

            I could be missing the point her, but I think Paul’s implication is that your little sister knows that your boyfriend is lousy in bed because she tried him out.

    If you support Dina sexting Becky through Joyce, would you really be happy to read content that made you sexually uncomfortable on your phone? Don’t say, “But it’s not FOR her; she shouldn’t even read it!”. Joyce can and should read everything on and sent to her phone.

    Imagine if you’d been through Joyce’s experience at the party, and your friend’s girlfriend asked you to relay a kinky message that read something like, “When you get back I want to hold you down and make you beg for mercy”, or some similar loving and consensual BDSM sentiment. You would almost certainly feel horrified at the reminder, and not want to pass it on, and rightly so.

      Sure, I wouldn’t be real comfortable with it, but I also don’t think Joyce should read everything sent to her phone – at least if she’s agreed to let Becky use it. She could easily pass it to Becky to have a text conversation with Dina. Which Becky could then delete before giving it back. No reason she should have to see it all. Any more than she should assume the right to listen in to both sides of the conversation if Becky borrowed it to use as a phone.

          That’s certainly fair. Surprise sextings sent to Joyce’s phone with no warning would be completely out of line, even if Dina intended them to go to Becky.

          A sexy text conversation (or even pics!) that only started after Becky replied, showing that she was the one using the phone would be a different story. Just delete everything before giving the phone back to Joyce.

    So, funny(ish) story: I dreamed last night that DoA ended with Joe getting into a “just married” car with a hitherto-unidentified blonde and driving away. The internet erupted into “is this the real ending or a joke ending, GAH!”.

    Then I woke up and thought, “Hey, that was Roomies-style black and white art…”

        Ok, now I get why. Imagining my little brother talking about sex (outside of me educating him on consent) is really uncomfortable. He’s almost sixteen and I still have the urge to act like an overprotective father with a shotgun when I think he might be getting a girlfriend
