  • IDK why you think that “4 equal sides” is the same as “sideways square”.

    You can (and frequently do) have equal sided diamonds that aren’t “sideways squares”.

    Seems like your main issue is geometry.

    People would definitely want to elongate the top and bottom sides

    Which is fine. As long as they elongate symmetrically (which most would do), they’re still four equal sides.

    There’s no way a human is going to draw 4 equal lines

    Yes they would. In fact most would, I’d wager.

    Sounds like your concepts struggle is comprehending that “four equal sides” isn’t the same as “four equal vertices”.

    Once more, with feeling…

    I’m not saying it’s not more rewarding, better quality, etc.

    But it’s not easier than just buying a damn jar of pickles when you’re at the store.

    I make them and buy them, I garden my own cucumbers specifically to make them. I’ve made quick ones, slow ones, garlic ones, spicy ones…it’s not hard…

    …but I’m not going to pretend it’s faster or easier than buying a jar from the fucking supermarket.

    Because it’s not.


  • You missed the “a quick and dirty [wet] shave is just as good as an electric one” part, didn’t you.

    I didn’t miss it, I just didn’t feel it was worth it to point out how obviously wrong it was.

    Sure they might give equivalent results, but one is significantly faster, easier, and less hassle than the other.

    I’ve done both kinds of shave and there’s no arguing that a wet shave gives the superior results…but pretending that it’s not a lot more fuss and effort is just ridiculous.
