Today, my roommate came out of the bathroom, and asked me how the scales knew her weight in both pounds and kilos, even though "the exchange rate is always changing." I actually live with this idiot. FML
I agree, your life sucks 25 644
You deserved it 2 200

ak_6694 tells us more.

For anyone who is interested, she has taken it with good humour and is still laughing about it. It's one of those electronic scales, so I did briefly get her to believe that due to the GFC, the scales would say she was putting on more pounds than kilos before I came clean with the truth.

Unfortunately for her, there is no exchange rate for her IQ, which probably resembles that of a kiwi. The fruit, not the bird. Not that it makes much of a difference...

I suppose she was just trying to be sarcastic :p

Governments really should start culling people with the IQ of a pile of dog shit!

Spare her feeling, tell her the scale is connected to the Internet.

I'm so confused..what's the joke? I'm not dumb or anything but why was your roommate wrong? Is it because we don't measure weight in Kilos?

I'm 100% serious. I'm so confused...what did she do wrong?

jakelab- If you don't understand why the roommate was wrong, and you think weight cannot be measured in kilos, you obviously are dumb.

Nvm my mom explained it to me..lol it's because the exchange rate has nothing to do with weight or her scale. :) ya learn something new every day!

Call the Sydney Zoo. You've discovered the last living specimen of **** sapiens neanderthalensis.

Readjust the scale to make it seem like she's gaining an extra 5 pounds every week then loosing 5 pounds every week then tell her it's terrible how the exchange rate has been changing lately.
