I can tell you're not an American, OP.

Bullets per square child is a unit of size comparable to an acre, not of speed comparable to KPH. 🤦‍♂️

Ah, kph/"kills per hour". My favorite American unit of speed.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

Excuse me, but kph does not only apply to children.

We're talking about kph^C^.

BluesF@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

No, that's also a measure of size used primarily for those big fords with the tiny beds.

I'm considering it more like a unit of pressure, like the standard force of a bullet over the stretched area made out of the skin of an obese child.

the_tab_key@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

It's really a flux as the bullets are moving. The 'per second' is implied.

Maybe new cars down have it anymore but km/r were always on my dashboard as well

I think you mean round child.

Assume a spherical child in a frictionless vacuum.

That’s gonna make active shooter drills really annoying, logistically, but maybe that’s the point of the exercise

You just put a jack under one end of the building, lift it up and let them roll out the other side. Easy peasy.

I thought this was taking place in a vacuum

RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com · 1 pts · 1y

You'll still roll without air. Air has a negligible, if anything negative, impact on rolling.

Yes. Although our children are more squircle than square.

hihi24522@lemm.ee · 19 pts · 1y (1 reply)

If you assume that a “bullet” is a unit of momentum (the mass and velocity of a bullet) and “square child” is actually just referring to the mass of a child who happens to be square shaped and not the mass of a child squared, then “bullets per square child” is describing valid units for a velocity

SurfinBird@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

Square child per bullet then?

Some people will do anything to avoid freedom units

MataVatnik@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y

Lol bullets per square child. I'm going to hell if I wasn't already

I can't even understand your foreign measurements, are they even in English? Weigh things in Cheeseburgers With The Cheese Pried Off So There's A Little Cheese Left like normal human beings smh

Wogi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I read that in an incomprehensible British accent

Harvey656@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

That would be Dwad Children per second, or DC/s.

I like my Gallon milk jugs thank you very much

mastazi@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

I will buy you a metric ton of milk jugs if you make the switch

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

They are very useful for stopping bullets if you fill them with concrete when you're done with the milk.

rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 1y

5 is way too many bullets and not nearly enough km
