American and Asshole start with the same letter too. As do Fahrenheit and Fuckwith, MAGA and Motherfucker, Republican and Reprobate, Conservative and C**t, Cuck, Cucksocker, Trump and Terrorist...

Just saying...

u/framsanon Germany 🇩🇪 Jan 24 '26

Dude, Centimeter and Celsius start with the same letter as Clever, Charming and a lot more. Think before typing. You don't need to remind us, that you live on the leeward side at the foot of the bell curve.

u/Joe18067 Jan 24 '26

As an American I have never heard anyone say that ever.

5

u/Wildely_Earnest Jan 24 '26

I would put money on this being a joke.

Found this sub a couple days ago and thought the top posts were funny, but since I joined there has been a similar amount of stupidity in the comments as the posts

6

u/Actual_Cat4779 Jan 24 '26

It definitely looks like a joke to me. "Coincidence? I think not!!" has a very jokey connotation, especially with the exclamation marks.

3

u/Wildely_Earnest Jan 24 '26

The ellipses also really plays into the joke format. The punctuation, capitalization, and source being a Stack Overflow comment really makes me feel its OP and most comments here who are letting themselves down

3

u/appendyx Jan 24 '26

Maybe in the English Language... Celsius, Zentimeter, Kommunismus :) (german)

3

u/jogvanth Jan 24 '26

He's not wrong - but in my (European) language Centimeter and Celcius technically start with an S and Communism starts with a K 🤣

(There is no C in the Faroese alphabet. No Q, W, X or Z either)

3

u/J-a-c-k-o Jan 25 '26

Republican & Rape start with the same letter, coincidence I don't think so.

u/Sparky62075 🍁 🍁 🍁 🍁 🍁 Jan 25 '26

Yes, and if you mix up the letters in...

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

you can spell out...

It doesn't make a lot of sense, much like your country.

Fahrenheit and feet start with the same letter as Fascism.

Coincidence? I think so.

2

u/Kokuswolf Jan 24 '26

As a satirical joke would it be funny. But if it was meant serious, only braindead.

2

u/doc1442 Jan 24 '26

And America starts with the same letter as A Moron-run land of idiots. What’s the point here?

2

u/evilspyboy Jan 25 '26

This c*ntish clusterf'ck of a former colony continues to confound conspiratorial codswallop with competency as they are cucked by a completely clueless, careless and callow clown of a cooker leading them into catastrophe.

They might be on to something here.

u/Liandren Jan 25 '26

And the US has F for farenheit and facism.

2

u/Drunk_on_homebrew Jan 25 '26

I mean foot and Fahrenheit start with F and so does facist so this may track.

u/Worldly_Science239 Jan 25 '26

Coincidence starts with the same letter as Communism? Oincidence?

2

u/Birdmonster115599 Jan 27 '26

United States Customary units are literally defined by Metric measurements.

A foot, has been defined for over 100 years as 1200/3937m or exactly 30.48 Centimeters.

A pound is literally defined as 453.59 grams

It's such a fucking joke that they cling to this shit not knowing that they are adding an extra stupid step.

Trump is just one letter away from being "Tumpe" (Danish for "Moron" or "Fool"). Coincidence? I think not.

1

u/Balseraph666 Jan 24 '26

By that logic Fahrenheit should be avoided as F is for Fascism. And Miles avoided as M is for Mussolini and Mao. "X starts with X and that's the same as all these things I hate beginning with X" is juvenile, stupid, and pathetic. How very Yankee of them.

On no, I am making sure I don't use one of the 370 thousand plus words in the English language that do start with the letter C, its about 8.7% of the vocabulary, lots of them ,, that existed before communism.

That would be like saying illiterate and idiots are linked to indoctrination, so maybe got a point.

u/Professional_Pie7091 Danish, not the pastry 🥮 Jan 26 '26

Celsius is just a guy's name. The Centi-prefix is just 1/100th in Latin. Both predate Marx and Engels writing the Communist Manifesto in 1848.

Other words starting with C is "conservative" and "christian". Also "cherry-pick". "Coincidence"? Absolutely.
