If 45 is more than 44, then how is it that a .44 SAE is bigger than a .45 Magnum?

Just like a 12 gauge is bigger than a 20 gauge.
And a .35 snubnose is bigger than a .22 Luger.

I don't know how it works.  :question:

If you can't answer this yourself then you have proven that you should not be allowed to own either.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd

I usta own guns. Back in 1981, I had a .22 rifle, a .30-.30,  a 20 gauge single shot, a 12 gauge double barrel side by side, and a single shot 12 gauge. I skimmed it down to a single shot 12 gauge. Tiana don't like guns-so I don't got none now.

UFO's.
I seen some. I mean the shapes- not just lights. In daylight. I know that sounds crazy, and if you want me to describe them, I will.
But I don't 'get' is the idiots who believe every f**king thing they hear about this...mostly bulls**t.

BUT! I did see some weird s**t that was seemingly impossible.

It's been years, and I'm only just now beginning to wonder why Amazon doesn't have a saved search subscription & feed page like eBay does, and yet, eBay doesn't have a useless paid subscription of some sort, useless apps, and a talking can that's, well, pretty useless...

Why can't Alexa go to a webpage & read the text off of it? Seems like the simplest request in the world to me...

How's about those kinds of people that pull up behind motorcycles at traffic lights, and won't pull up on to the sensors? :hatred:
What's up with that? :hatred:
If they don't pull up a lousy five feet, the light will never change, and yet, for some reason they've suddenly freaked out about the fifteen feet of space between themselves and the motorcycle in front of them, even though everybody's sitting still! :hatred:

Why does the MASD adapter card work in the Olympus SP560 and SP590, but not the SP570?

People on Facebook sharing current real life tragedy, disaster or incidents written as poems. Can't people face reality of normal written news anymore?
This is mind boggling weird to me.

In case the motorcyclist falls over when taking off once the light changes.

Poems have recorded tragedy for over a thousand years. Why'd we ever switch to prose?

That's been going on for centuries-! Like the Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde, or the Wreck of the Hesperus.

Well, I guess I'll get comfy with a glass of wine reading the latest 12 year old Indian girl raped and killed by her brothers and uncle poem  :bluesad:

I haven't seen this phenomenon of people sharing tragedies as poems. Most people are terrible poets, so it could be awful; I've just never seen it.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...
