No, it's not...all the carbon dioxide caused it to inflate.
The adage is addressing perception, not reality and certainly adages are not intended to be taken all that seriously. Also, if time seems to be moving faster/slower to you, that is your reality. In fact you can experience the speed as slow and fast at the same time. I'm looking forward to seeing 80, so time moves slowly. At the same time, I struggle to complete a day's worth of chores. The time seems to fly by and suddenly it's day's end with only half the chores are completed.
Is that because he enjoys bad weather- or is it to deny others a delightful day of sailing?
We seem to have morphed into posting "specious aphorisms"; here's the most incorrect and dangerous of them all:
Ahhh, the one that got man flying and then to the moon. The one that keeps "men in sheds" ever hopeful, always tinkering. Words to celebrate indeed!
Certainly this is true in many cases. Maybe it doesn't apply to you but, it certainly is true in many cases.
Everybody knows that you just don't go picking up forks off of the ground.I am not sure what the OP is asking, nor what many of the posts have to do with what the OP is asking. But... in response to...
Something I have noticed since being on here, is that there are certain personalities that don't "get" or understand hyperbole in humor or irony. Many are the engineering types, but many are just "on spectrum" if I had to guess... which may encompass the engineers, ha ha. OK ok, enough of that speculation.
If I said, "Out of the five pounds of tobacco I smoke in a week"... if your first response is no one smokes five pounds in a week... then there's something wrong with you, and you're not going to "get" the joke that will proceed. I don't think that there is a cure or medication for it. My heart breaks for these people. Usually the only humor these types get is humor that puts someone else down. It's very sad to me.
I would probably suggest that if you read something you think is ludicrous, then maybe just skip it. I wouldn't want to be that guy debating whether or not chickens really cross roads, or why say "knock knock" when there's a damn doorbell? It's probably just best to ignore it, and let everyone else just laugh.
Now, this is all because of the OP. But, if I take the logical road some of you have taken... when you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Einstein once said that time is relative. The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you're on.
