Last week I was talking to someone “green” about home energy consumption, and I mentioned that I had measured *everything* in my house back in 2008, and the results were not what you might expect.
I showed them the spreadsheet I had created by monitoring every single electrical device in the household individually over one week with a skip load of kill-a-watt meters and a lot of dodgy temporary wiring.
I left them a copy of the spreadsheet. Today I have just heard from them, apparently they have been arguing non stop, and the consensus is that the wife thinks I did something wrong or I am weird and ran an abnormal house, and the husband thinks maybe my measuring methodology was somehow flawed, and thus they have reached some sort of agreement with each other that basically I am wrong.
Rather than respond, basically I just shrugged and added yet another household to my cellphone and email block filters…. however, out of potential interest for my readers, here is the data below, remember, this is electrical consumption, and it is from 2008, and it is the UK.
Overall household consumption.
Standby Watt | 24 hour kWh | Standby cost | Usage cost | |
23.00 | 2.585 | £0.27 | 1 – Living room | |
0 | 2.911 | £0.31 | 2 – Kitchen | |
39.00 | 5.301 | £0.56 | 3 – Hall | |
0.00 | 1.304 | £0.14 | 4 – Bathroom | |
0.00 | 0.221 | £0.02 | 5 – Bed 1 | |
0.00 | 0.031 | £0.00 | 6 – Bed 2 | |
0.00 | 0.031 | £0.00 | 7 – Bed 3 | |
0.00 | 0.652 | £0.07 | 8 – W’shop | |
0.00 | 0.372 | £0.04 | 9 – Garden | |
62.00 | 13.408 | £0.00 | £1.41 | Day |
£128.11 | 91 days |
As a sanity check I compared this to the meter readings
1,304.00 | Actual kWh from bill | £136.92 | |
1220.10 | accounted for | £128.11 | |
83.90 | £8.81 |
Which opens a whole new can of worms about the rather interesting subject of utility meter accuracy and calibration and legal requirements and standards….
On an apparently completely unrelated note, most recent queries in personal messages sent to me by guys doing the internet dating thing have boiled down to “so she was texting me every 5 minutes telling me her cunt is dripping for my cock, and now she has just gone all cold and distant?????”
In the first instance the couple were right there, THEY raised the subject of energy consumption, THEY raised the specific topic within that subject of which things in the house use most energy, THEY saw me open my laptop and saw me dig out an old Excel file with a file date three plus years old, chances I could have been forewarned and planned and planted ready to use fake data? Zilch.
Since I was right there and explained in great detail (far more than there is time or space for here) how and what I did to ensure that each individual measurement was set up correctly, how I calibrated the power meter itself, what I did to ensure that each reading was fair and not just a small segment of a typical consumption / time graph, what methods I used after each stage to “sanity check” the results, there wasn’t any room at all, even for an unreasonable person with an agenda, to find flaws in my results, beyond the obvious individual variations between households, eg their 2008 Philips 7kg washing machine vs my 2008 Samsung 7kg washing machine.
Yet, since the results were not what they wanted, the results were dismissed as simply being wrong, and their own household, which has never been measured in any detail beyond the total consumption and bill every quarter, was deemed to be entirely different to my household, and it was mainly the wimmin in this house that made this decision, and then proceeded to browbeat her pet niggerz to agree with her.
In short, this wimminz preferred her fantasy castle in the sky model of power consumption in her home to scientifically verified reality.
Given such an attitude this wimminz is no doubt now restricting the use of those things that in her fantasy castle in the sky model use most power, which in all probability means their actual quarterly power consumption and therefore bill will go UP, and as / if / when it does, it won’t be the wimminz fault, oh no, the only possible answers are that the power company is wrong, and good luck with that, especially when it involves the wimmin in the household having to argue with the wimminz who works in the power company billing dept, and that old standby, clearly her pet niggerz was not obeying orders correctly and continued to turn on the wrong things.
And so as I explain to these men who contact me about wimminz who suddenly and without warning go from dripping wet cunt to ignoring you, it isn’t you that is the problem, it isn’t anything you have or have not done, it isn’t even anything you could influence if you chose to, all that has happened is that the wimminz in question had some fantasy castle in the sky going on about your cock, and now she doesn’t, perhaps all it took was for her cat to get ill, one of her rugrats to puke on the floor, or some other poor unfortunate who failed to realise that Princess Precious was going to the mall that day and wanted to park in her favourite parking spot…..
Your male obsession with actual FACTS will just fuck you up.
Let’s take my actual factual recorded electrical consumption figures from 2008 above, lets take the standby consumption of everything in the Living room of 23 Watts… and by the way for the average house in 2011 this ia a remarkably LOW figure, what with TV, Satellite, DVR, Stereo, 3 or 4 wall warts permanently plugged in for when you want to charge smartphones etc.
As far as cupcake is concerned your manly Mig Welder is the culprit (aside from the inconvenient fact that it saved the household enough money to pay for itself by fixing the gates) and the fact that is uses 3kW just proves that fact….
In reality the hobby mig welder is probably powered up for 36 hours a year, consuming 200 watts, and striking an arc for 1 hour a year, consuming 3000 watts, so we have (36 x 200) + (1 x 3000) = 10.2 kWh consumed per year.
Spread evenly over an entire year this averages to about 1 watt.
The 23 watt standby load in the living room, so cupcake can watch QVC and charge her phone and laptop to play farmville and flirt with other men will consume the same amount of power in just 18 days of solid standby mode alone, far far less when powered up.
So what is going on, since it is patently obvious that the wimminz fantasy castle in the sky does nothing else quite so well as fail miserably at modelling everyday reality? Why cling to something that is not merely crap, but the most crap solution it is possible to find?
Well when you have eliminated everything else, you have to accept what is left, no matter how freaky it is.
The freaky but only remaining possible answer is that it does not matter whether it is the your cock makes my cunt wet fantasy castle in the sky, or the your welder uses all the power fantasy castle in the sky, the purpose is not to model reality, since it does this worse than any other tool.
If the purpose of this fantasy castle in the sky is not to model reality, then we need to discover its true purpose, and that must be a purpose that more than outweighs the fact that as far as reality goes, it is the worst fucking model you could have found, the most impractical model you could have found, and the most likely to cause future problems model you could have found.
That purpose is that the fantasy castle in the sky model makes wimminz feel the way they want to feel, on a moment by moment basis, and the way they want to feel is not even remotely related to or connected to or tied to the reality of who and what they are.
If the wimminz wants to feel like her cunt is the most glorious thing in the universe and your cock would do anything to get in there then the wimminz will have a wet cunt, ten minutes later she will move on to something else and it is like the wet cunt never happened…. wimminz compartmentalise their lives like this, like a series of still cartoons in a comic book, and if you look closely and ignore the fantasy castle speech bubbles the content of each cartoon cell / image is different to the last, with few if any common features except perhaps the main character, the wimminz herself, and as always the story the cartoon tells only makes any sense if you first suspend all rational disbelief and believe in the main character, the wimminz herself.
Note also that the main character of these fantasy castles in the sky cartoons gains precisely nothing from believing in you, or caring for you, what you think, what you feel, what you need, on the contrary, it costs her time she could be using living in cloud cuckoo land.
Getting back to the couple who started this, this is why the wimminz was angry at her pet house niggerz, his role is as a walk on walk off bit part in her cartoon fantasy life, and anything that doesn’t stay in character for his part pisses the wimminz off.
Getting back to the men who message me about wimminz who go from wet cunts to ignoring them, this is why you do not spend one more second on them asking what the fuck happened, it is out of character for your walk on walk off bit part in the wimminz cartoon life, and so it will piss the wimminz off. lose-lose.
What you do is what I do, paint your own cartoon fantasy and allow the wimminz to see themselves cast as a walk on walk off bit parts in your fantasy life, bit parts that appeal to them and coincide with their own castles in the sky, and since we are playing the numbers game, only ever pay any attention to those who self select themselves for a walk on walk off role at your direction.
This is, after all, the world we have created for ourselves prior to the economic collapse, a world of self centred and selfish and isolated individuals all each living their own little fantasy lives, and yesterday’s cartoon is so much kitty litter lining… and tomorrow’s has yet to be written.
