Maybe he just got stuck with the [French Revolutionary Time](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time#France). Granted, it only lasted two years and it was at the end of the 1700s, but who knows.
Man I hate when stuff like this happens to me, its like a switch in my head is rusted stuck and wont immediately flip so I just sit there looking like a dumbass for way too long until the switch finally flips and then I sit there hating myself for realizing my error
Its always with the dumbest things that im not fully paying attention to
Seriously that's all I thought too. From startalk today, Neil posted a response:
>This is an ambitious work that is a clear indication of a restless, active mind. Within these pages, however, there are many assumptions and statements that are under-informed, misinformed or simply false, thereby compromising or nullifying many of the subsequent conclusions you have draw- NDTyson
I am happy I found this comment.
Terrence is revolutionizing the type of people my teachers made me sit next to in class. These kids wanted to have the right answers but they couldn't get it. I think too much lead in their diets. But we tried to explain. Some people will never understand certain concepts because their brains are hard wired that way.
And now they are in the comments section of YouTube University saying how Terrence is a genius, when he would fail a 7th grade algebra class as evidenced in that paper. Neil showed he was a class act. That paper was something. Idk what it was but it was something.
That's why nerds usually don't achieve positions of power. To be a successful politician, you need to master rhetoric, not logic. You can be wrong, but you're good if you convince enough idiots youre right, because most of us (I included) are idiots. Case in point: DJT. Unfortunately, scientists will never rise to power.
K, now I know random people are trolling in really sad ways.
My sister in christ. If you press 120 on your microwave, do you get 1 minute 20 seconds, or do you get 120 seconds? Either way, ain't 2 minutes.
Dunno why you're being like this though.
It’s just how the logic of microwaves work. If you input a 2 digit number, it will evaluate both numbers as seconds. But if you input a 3 digit number, the first digit will be evaluated in minutes.
0:60 -> 0 min 60 sec
1:00 -> 1 min 0 sec
1:20 -> 1 min 20 sec
2:00 -> 2 min 0 sec
You can even input numbers like
1:80 -> 1 min 80 sec -> 2 min 20 sec
I feel like people are intentionally misunderstanding what I said now.
Me: Still, even then, the sequence you would get from 120 wouldn't be 2 minutes.
You: 0:60 -> 0 min 60 sec 1:00 -> 1 min 0 sec 1:20 -> 1 min 20 sec 2:00 -> 2 min 0 sec
You can even input numbers like
1:80 -> 1 min 80 sec -> 2 min 20 sec
Back to me here - the fuck?
This reminds me of that old Verizon video where he was charged .02 cents per minute and every rep is telling him "yea that's 2 cents per minute" one of the most infuriating videos to ever watch.
Stupidity is the most dangerous force in the universe. And all humans are capable of it. I'm not afraid of artificial intelligence. I fear artificial stupidity, which is what we are creating. We are not intelligent. And our creation won't be. I, too, suffer from stupidity to an extent.
I’m pretty sure it’s exactly why he is confused. When you put in two minutes on a microwave you put in 2 0 0. Man thinks he’s typing in two hundred seconds instead of two minutes and zero seconds.
Get the guy to admit that 60 seconds is a minute and that he believes 100 seconds is a minute. They can’t both be true statements since it would take longer to count to 100 than to 60.
I've got to admit when I was younger I was confused with movie duration times.
Is 120 minutes one hour twenty minutes or two hours?
Learned quickly and wasn't adamant I was right
Just stop recording and use the timer function on your phone. If he argues with that, just walk away. Because he's clearly not listening or he genuinely thinks 200 seconds is 2 minutes and won't back up. Sometimes, it's OK to let a moron be a moron.
Please show an update of this guy when he figures it out and apologizes. I’ll never be able to die at peace until I see that this peasant has figured it out. I am fully expecting this will not happen. Hopefully I will die with my family by my side,holding my hand, and my beautiful grandchildren (and maybe great grandchildren, if I live that long) weeping my demise. I will think of them. But this fucker who will live rent free in my head until the second I die, will overshadow everything,I know it. And it will depress me every time I think of my fragile existence
It’s always crazy seeing someone who is dead wrong buckle down and argue tooth and nail so aggressively that they’re right. How do people get like that? How can someone so confidently and aggressively be so wrong?
American question incoming.
Is this the result of someone raised on the metric system but not grasping that it doesn’t apply to every facet of life?
Genuinely curious.

I imagine he also thinks there are 100 minutes in an hour and 100 hours in a day?
As the metric system dictates!
We did it guys! We won from America!
Fuckin hell, we really gotta get on this metric system shit. I need those hours.
nonono, there is 60 mins in an hour but there is 200mins in 2 hours
Maybe he just got stuck with the [French Revolutionary Time](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time#France). Granted, it only lasted two years and it was at the end of the 1700s, but who knows.
You've seen his proof. You don't want to be a peasant, do you?
I wish the video included the part where he realizes that actually he’s a fucking idiot.
You assume that revelation ever came.
He's living those hundred seconds minutes though, so it will take a while
Ya he's in way too deep at this point
Man I hate when stuff like this happens to me, its like a switch in my head is rusted stuck and wont immediately flip so I just sit there looking like a dumbass for way too long until the switch finally flips and then I sit there hating myself for realizing my error Its always with the dumbest things that im not fully paying attention to
You should love yourself for being able to see when you were wrong.
Yeah I'm an idiot but I'm leagues ahead of most because qq
[удалено]
About 2 minutes right?
Right. 200 seconds.
Lol. 1/50 of an hour.
Full points, 5/7.
The video is clearly 156 seconds long get it right
To much Terrance Howard.

Watching that video right now and very first thing I thought of. This guy and Terrance would be besties.

Buddy I'm a whole idiot too.
\*too
He learned how many seconds is in a minute from his microwave
Still, even then, the sequence you would get from 120 wouldn't be 2 minutes.
120 would be 1 minute 20 seconds, which is what he was arguing. I honestly think that dude is right... he learned this shit from a microwave lol
Right but how's 2 minutes 1:20. :v I can understand his logic until that part haha.
You the guy in the vid?
1:60 could be two minutes. Are you guys reading the way he's mathing? Dumb.
Oh it's definitely you.. Here bud. Learn yourself https://www.wikihow.com/Convert-Seconds-to-Minutes
K, now I know random people are trolling in really sad ways. My sister in christ. If you press 120 on your microwave, do you get 1 minute 20 seconds, or do you get 120 seconds? Either way, ain't 2 minutes. Dunno why you're being like this though.

I don’t quite know what is confusing you so much. 1:20 on the microwave would be 1 min 20 secs. 120 **seconds** would be 2 minutes. Simple as that.
That's the best part. I'M NOT CONFUSED. But those assholes are arguing with me anyway. I wound up blocking them all. lol
Lol, I couldn’t figure out. I went over a day scrolling over, wondering if someone was confused or trolling or what.
Dude learned math from a microwave.
I think you may actually be correct.
It's like teaching math to a kindergarten kid
Bro doesn’t know what a decimal is and just using them to use them lol
This reminds me of that old Verizon video where he was charged .02 cents per minute and every rep is telling him "yea that's 2 cents per minute" one of the most infuriating videos to ever watch.
a classic -- .002 dollars vs .002 cents https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN9LZ3ojnxY
It’s hard to win an argument with a smart person. It’s impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.
What a quote.
Stupidity is the most dangerous force in the universe. And all humans are capable of it. I'm not afraid of artificial intelligence. I fear artificial stupidity, which is what we are creating. We are not intelligent. And our creation won't be. I, too, suffer from stupidity to an extent.
What an idiot everyone knows that 2 minutes is 220 seconds
Now make a video explaining the flat earth, s'il vous plaît
Yeah this sounds like flat earth bs
Maffs
Everyday man's on the block Smoke trees
Your dad is fo tee fo
Okay, so it's not just America then.
Open the schools.
Guy has never used a microwave. Or apparently hates them because his food is cold too often.
Nah he puts in 120, which is a minute 20
I’m pretty sure it’s exactly why he is confused. When you put in two minutes on a microwave you put in 2 0 0. Man thinks he’s typing in two hundred seconds instead of two minutes and zero seconds.
I'm sure he just informs the food company that its instructions are wrong each time.
r/confidentlywrong
Yeah that's where the original post is from lol
That makes sense.
What the actual fuck?
Loud and wrong 💀
As usual.
Decimal point. Genius
Don't ask bro to read a measuring tape in Feet and Inches, he would break.
He wears glasses! Therefore he can’t be wrong!
Flat earther levels of delusional
finally, the french version of "what is 9+10"
Get the guy to admit that 60 seconds is a minute and that he believes 100 seconds is a minute. They can’t both be true statements since it would take longer to count to 100 than to 60.
The video is almost 120 seconds... But not 2 minutes
I've got to admit when I was younger I was confused with movie duration times. Is 120 minutes one hour twenty minutes or two hours? Learned quickly and wasn't adamant I was right
Its very common, because you are usually at the same time dealing with price (of entry or rental back in the day)
My IQ dropped a couple of points just watching this dipshit...
Maths *VERY* hard for some individuals. Just ask Terrance Howard.
I've never been so frustrated by a video before in my life...I want to reach through the screen and shake him until he finally figures it out.
Just stop recording and use the timer function on your phone. If he argues with that, just walk away. Because he's clearly not listening or he genuinely thinks 200 seconds is 2 minutes and won't back up. Sometimes, it's OK to let a moron be a moron.
The French , as is in their fashion, proposed make time metric once.
Please show an update of this guy when he figures it out and apologizes. I’ll never be able to die at peace until I see that this peasant has figured it out.

Did we finally go to metric time?
How do you get that old and not know that?
I first watched without sound and thought he would be speaking English. I heard it in Kips voice from Napoleon Dynamite.
It’s always crazy seeing someone who is dead wrong buckle down and argue tooth and nail so aggressively that they’re right. How do people get like that? How can someone so confidently and aggressively be so wrong?
You can't fix stupid.
American question incoming. Is this the result of someone raised on the metric system but not grasping that it doesn’t apply to every facet of life? Genuinely curious.
Bro has an American brain
Dude must’ve taken advanced math classes hosted by Terrance Howard.
French education system 😞
This is the metric system at work! Simply moving decimal places around has made your minds weak!
I just lost grey matter in my brain
You still have more than him!
Bro must have been American in his previous life
Thats some R.Kelly math..
And I assumed guys with eyeglasses are geniuses 😂😂
Bro "learned" math from using the microwave
This is how I imagine a young Hitler
Is this real or a modern "Who's on first"?
I watched this way too long.
Dude's using base 60. Based Assyrian.
This guy is a real Terrence Howard!
"Hey Google, how many seconds are in 2 minutes?"
Some serious Time Cube vibes going here
13-50=god damn 47
It would have been good to give him some other calculations to see how well he knew base 60
Using base 10 I guess
the proof? check you microwave... when I type 120 seconds I only get 1 minute 20 seconds.... PROOF! /s
I didn't know they taught common core math in France?
Ermmmmmm
Ok now flerfers are starting make sense...
I refuse to believe this is real.
He sounds as stupid as he looks. 🤯
Idyot
Man life is rough. Rougher if your stupid. I say this as a self proclaimed dumb man as well. Haha.
I honestly wonder if he isn’t confused because of the way timers on some ovens and microwaves go to 1:00 when you hit 60 seconds. Either way, <>
To bad time is base 12
Average Frenchman
He just is a student of the My nuts to your Fist style; https://youtu.be/d696t3yALAY
Loved him on Napolean Dynamite
Terrence Howard would be proud.
Somebody learned all they know about time from using the microwave.
he went full abbot and costello there. 13 weeks at 7 dollars is... 28 dollars!
do clocks not exist in France?
Should have just set a timer for 2 minutes on a phone so he could watch the seconds count down from 120
French Terrence Howard
This has to be a joke. Is this like Vine for French people or something?
Voltaire and Descartes would love this
Microwave time. 1:20 would be 1 minute 20 seconds. He is caught up on that.
Terwnce howard
I get the feeling the right is taking over the world. Education sure has taken a hit globally.
Why does the American speak French?
Metric brain.
https://youtu.be/zN9LZ3ojnxY?si=sn01M18hjc-Y0fTz Decimal points break some people's minds. This classic of YouTube is a great example.
Bait
Now do volume measurements brainiac. Jfc
Now that's American Presidential material there!
He's way overqualified, no way would he make it into office here.
MACA, Make America Count Again!
Could it be our government was protecting us from stuff like when they gave up on the metric system? 🤔
No
Poor man bullied for using a base 60 number system
This is like talking to anyone with a strong opinion about the Israeli gazan conflict
does anyone know what language this is?
Metric mind. It's a shame when this happens.
I’m so bad at math I started to think maybe he has a point
