what about when you're cooking Pika
like, to keep time
Spooky, you will not believe this
the hourglass was invented
and then later a clock
Okay 2 claps
I just clapped to try to keep time
without realizing I was playing into spooky's hand
I mean, it vaguely could have
worse then the fact that my air fryer, oven, and microwave all have clocks on them
yeah but if you need to do something for <30 seconds
you're not gonna set a whole ass timer for that
I'm not saying you should clap for a whle hour
watching your potato bake
I just walk around my apartment while I wait for the food to be done
if I had a 2 minute wait
otherwise I just go sit down
Also if its less than 30 seconds just mentally guess
there is no difference between 25 and 35 seconds
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak there is no difference between 25 and 35 seconds
Cooking pretzels in lye, tyvm
Replying to Gent #gent_. If you don’t have a metronome in your brain are you even sentient
Sorry Gent, mines full of apples
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak I just clapped to try to keep time
Non American moment, we simply count in Mississippi's
Replying to heir #hyrrulfr okay, funny fire fact, when i count, i often count each number in a different language i know
See, this is just more efficient, because you can drop all the woke numbers and just keep the good ones
got it within half a second, which is about what most people should be able to do for anything <1 minute
@heir what's your least favorite sounding french number
Replying to Polar_ #polar_ Non American moment, we simply count in Mississippi's
Spooky said to do this, so he is not american
That one Kribbles
Pika link this counting test
I want to benchmark my method
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak Spooky said to do this, so he is not american
Yea but he looks for any excuse to clap
no redos
obviously
just raw first try ability
I love how portal is broken or whatever that video was about
That video was so funny
hold on let me see if I can find this
this video is really funny
I shouldn't take this one, I would probably just expose it
as someone who grew up bordering Mississippi I've noticed that shockingly most time telling solutions are a bit off from what they should be
Today was not a good day for counting for me either
I feel you Pirate
