German here, I don't get that joke. What the fuck's an Air Conditioner? Some time of specail air you put in your hair after using shampoo?
@EmoDuck @The_Picard_Maneuver
Don't many German cars have "airco"? ๐
Anyway, in rare cases it's to moisturize the inside air, some are able to heat, but most of them are used to cool down temperatures in a room or building (like in supermarkets in summer) and are a common thing in resident houses in the hotter parts of the world...
I think it gets its name from being able to condition the air temperature... ๐
jesus christ, germans know what air conditioning is
@JudahBenHur Yeah, by the time I realized it might have been sarcasm, the toot was sent and I was already doing something else... ๐
Oh, well, somebody's gotto be the idiot sometimes, might as well be me... ๐ ๐
in middle school I raised my hand and asked why the evaporation from the oceans didnt rain down into freshwater lakes and make them salt water also and I think about that about twice or three times a year, I'm in my 40s
But that's a very good question for a child?
Right? I can think of far more embarrassing things I've asked as a child.
I was like 13 ;_;
In elementary school I once asked how chicken eggs get fertilized if their shell is hard (we'd just learned about salmon spawning)...the look my teacher gave me still lives rent free in my head.
