As I mentioned, it's sloppy and there isn't the same amount of days in each month. And two Months are named after roman emperors that ruled a kingdom. There are far worse dictators and rulers we could name months after, but why roman emperors? Why advocate for a system that isn't straight forward and efficient?
And as I stated in my original post, these are quirks, not flaws. You have not given any reason as to why having months with different numbers of days is a bad thing. I can see how it may not be entirely straightforward, but how is it inefficient?
Furthermore, I find it somewhat ironic that you object to months being named after Roman emperors, and yet you actually propose naming the months after Roman gods and titans. This is about as ridiculous as if I were to object to Thursday being named for the Norse god Thor, and propose that instead we call it "Bragisday" for Bragi.
As for why Roman culture, specifically, I believe a lot of it has to do with the fact that much of Western civilization can trace its roots back to Rome, and the scientists and philosophers naming things tended to view Roman culture as part of their heritage. -

Main character's main weakness is water.
Seriously though, how is it that some main characters are trained professionals but don't know one simple thing such as swimming?
Many people don't realize this, but most video game heroes are actually descendants of the Wicked Witch of the West. -

DirtDog posted a message on Shimeji MegathreadPosted in: General Off TopicBrilliant! I mean, Clippy, flying toasters, and countless other iconic screen saver type crap was far too underutilized back in the 90's... Wait, I haven't inadvertently gone back in time have I?
I thought we collectively, the interwebs as a whole, learned that valuable lesson about not downloading .exe files based on a random suggestion on a forum? No? Well by all means, download away. We all need more useless crap on our computers.

It's a tie between the poisonous potato and clown fish. Beetroot is close but it's good for pig and chicken farming (food not so much).
Well, a clownfish restores half a hunger point (I think; I don't remember what its stats are) but a poisonous potato is, of course, poisonous. The clownfish might not be terribly valuable, but at least it's innocuous. -

Sarcasm? What, you think I, a gender-orthogonal chartreuse-kin would joke about this blatant enforcement of binary, birth-imposed gender?
Maybe your privilege has allowed you to spread transphobia unopposed in the past, but I won't stand for it -

I think you misunderstood the point of this thread. You rate how well you know the user above you out of 10.

It worked out, and we all got a good grade. It was just exceedingly frustrating.
