Yeah Weathel, what was that? 80 inches?

why does (almost) everyone on here confuse the (' & ") meanings for feet and inches?

' = feet, " = inches, c'mon people!

((I realize that Shortie and Gaz used them correctly, thus the "(almost)"))

6' 8" = 6 * 12 + 8 = 80 inches.
= 203 centimeters.

"HQ" is "height quotient," 100 + 15 * z-score of height.  I've never heard of it before, myself, but I defined it by analogy with "IQ," which is:

100 + 15 * z-score of performance on analytic reasoning task.

I guess I'm just off in the clouds.  Which is strange, since my HQ is only 122.


(And, yes, it was a set-up for this overly-elaborate and not-funny joke.)

*shrug* I understood the first time and found it amusing. ;)
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

There we go the headbang.

*swirls his cloak and enters the room.*

*trying to sound impressive* Welcom to RAF, newcomer.  You may address me as Cloaky.

*Faerie smacks him upside the head with his species list clipboard.*

Okay.  Geesh.

Hello cloaky. You want me to join your what have you and pick a color. Black, blue, red, yellow, and white right? See what I  is? Cool. Give me time to read the first five books since well right now I'm having some pain in my ribs. It hurts badly and my legs hurt more than usual.

Double post, very nasty.

i just finished the first book and I'm looking for the second in the library. BTW, I'm using the library for my internet connection ATM. So i can't annoy as much as i want to. :'(

So in about a half an hour i will be saying bye.

Goodness.  I'm falling behind.

Well, welcome to the forum faux-shorty!  I'm the one who steals Cloaky's clipboards and hits him with them.

Long story.

So, anyways.  HI!
