Sponge Bob was, first and foremost, symbolism for how festive and positive I am.

99 percent of people I have met in my life.

This situation took a toll on this body firmness, but we are there.

You could have used a real human picture 

You forgot 0. in front of 99.

This one is one step in that direction.

We only put 0s after the other numbers.

I forgot, in Europe they use ","....

Yeah, I had that kind of twitch while using "." in English classes. Getting myself confused, but "," does seem more logical to me, since "." is like the end.

 Let's not...

have a mathematical debate in a Moo section. However, I will say that "," is incredibly WEIRD.  And it is the end, the end for the zero. European mathematicians are weird. 

It's like American using feet, hands and whatever else. Or fahrenheit, when Celsius exists.

I promise there is no need for trauma flashbacks, because that's not going to turn out to be the subject. At least not fully.

I guess we both are speaking from what we have been accustomed to by our own environment, so that makes this equally important to me, but when I see 5.000.000 and when I see 5,000,000 - I tend to think about 5 millions for the latter rather than the former.

That being said, I tend to use space between numbers to emphasize hundreds, thousands, etc. ( 5 000 000 ).

I agree about the temperature scale, so Farenheit seems like another human complication indeed, but oh well, I guess "," and "°C" are the winners here.

Honestly, when I see, "$1,999" I thought it's $1999... Europeans are weird and are wrong.  

".", "metres", "litres" and "°C" are truly the winner. We have no room for unconventional things. Commas are used in sentences, not in mathematics.

They were wrong when they had sailed all way through to the continet of Australia.

But with Northern Europe/Scandinavia and Canada, I have always had nice spot for Australia and New Zealand.

Metres, litres I also agree. I tend not to get involved with inches and other later added measurements. In fact, these are the original and confirmed winners:

 

Commas are vastly universal/ubiquitous, so that's why there are also present in math/science apparently.

Indeed they were, read up on the impacts of colonialism sis 

I've never seen commas in maths or science. But "." is commonly used in sciences, such as "Hz.", don't tell me you write it as "Hz," too.

Well, I was talking about colonialism indeed.

But today we have Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and other city beauties, so there is that.

Yes, we do use Hz only or m only. All symbol units are free of interpunction signs. Don't tell me you use m.?

Not what your professors have told me.

I'll pretend I didn't read the first two sentences. 

Or the third. 

Or the fourth. 

 

Time to move our discussion to the Taylor section:

The order of your replies had to be respected and properlly answered to.

Yeah, I have just seen it on Youtube. Time to leave English Aya Nakamura with Butterfly alone for a moment or two.

You got confused and switched us, but that happens when you are manipulating things.
