so some local comic book shop accidentally had a shitload of anime girl…. tapestries (I guess?) printed and was desperate to get rid of them so now the cat shelter we go to uses them as cat blankets and it leads to many a funny sight
The answers were unanimously “no” but the explanations were a bit puzzling
That sounded made up so I doggedly persevered
I understand that there is conceivably one.
The answers offered several admissible distinctions:
I knew that!
I did not know that
the more explanations I read, the less I understood the sun as a concept
???
eventually, my unflinching investigation of the sun brought me to this page and it was like, this is not what I asked but finally an answer that makes sense:
I know this is a joke but I am a plasma physicist so I would like to answer the original question: you cannot get a tan in front of a fireplace because a fireplace does not give off enough UV radiation. (It may give off Some, but very little)
Also, I guess we wouldn’t say the sun is made of fire because it is made of plasma instead, which is gas that got so hot that its electrons separated from its nuclei. The fire in a fireplace is not ionized enough (too few electrons have separated from their nuclei) to be considered a plasma. The sun also gets its energy from a nuclear reaction (fusion!) rather than the chemical reaction that is happening in a fireplace.
I love working at joann fabrics today a guy asked me to show him the fake fur and when I did he goes “noooo… this won’t do” and part of my job is giving advice for projects so I asked him what he was using it for and he looks down at the floor and quietly says “… I wanna make a yeti costume to scare people with when we go skiing…”
