TenderfootGungi,

So it is perfectly 89°? What is the issue?

2 years ago, my OCD would have made me mad, now I look at it and its beautiful

In house framing, that's called "fuck it, it'll be covered by drywall."

quinkin,

Tips phone away from centre point until the angle appears as 90°. Ah all is good in the world.

Notices the arc is no longer a quarter circle. Aaaaaghh!

cyberpunk007,

You’re dead to me

BonesOfTheMoon,

Hugs friend.

Chunk,

They know it’s not 89°. They are messing with the perfectionists and a bunch of you took the bait.

Kindness,

Assumptions:

  • The bottom right corner of the angle is the origin, putting the majority of the arc in quadrant II.
  • 0 degrees starts on the positive x-axis to right.
  • Counterclockwise is a positive angle.
  • All degrees are relative to the edges of the picture.

The side nearest to the positive y-axis is at ~92.38°

The side nearest to the negative x-axis is at ~180.32°

The angle or the arc is ~87.94°

An actual 89° arc, I do appreciate. An 88° arc labelled as an 89°, I do not. I ardently hope you gain more skill in measuring angles, and have less malice that causes you to wish your misery on others.

BluesF,

I mean there’s no reason that a perfectionist would be irritated by an 89 degree angle, so I suspect this meme has had its way with you just as intended

Lord_ToRA,

Would the parallax of the photo cause the discrepancy?

ChaoticNeutralCzech,

There is little or no parallax, otherwise the arc would not be circular

orb360,

This is the point… The meme works on 2 levels.

Lay people will assume because the angle isn’t 90, that it will annoy perfectionists. But this is false.

It does still annoy perfectionists, but for the reasons you describe, not the reasons lay people assume.

This makes the meme funnier.

BonesOfTheMoon,

I absolutely love the amount of effort you put into this comment mon ami.

TenderfootGungi,

Did they? Or is it all bs?

Kindness,

I mean, you could find out… unless you’d rather rely on internetizens to tell you the truth.

There are plenty of free online image protractors available. You could even print out a paper protractor and hold it up to your screen.

Being willing to try to answer your own questions, and then succeeding is one of the most rewarding feelings. Take a walk on the wild side, and give in to your curiosity.

DocSportello,

And that, kids, is what we call a perfectionist.

potpotato,

Not sure if this is a rib for being less than 90 degrees or that it’s definitely less than 89 degrees.

lolcatnip,

It’s even worse in radians.

TokyoMonsterTrucker,

Meh. It’s fine.

Now if you slightly tilted that thing on its x-axis, I would be fucking enraged

TootSweet,

Now listen here you little shit.

BonesOfTheMoon,

I hope you have a wonderful and slightly off kilter night!

Kbin_space_program,

Still a whole number, I'm good.

cloudy1999,

Look buddy, that’s not quite right!

BonesOfTheMoon,

Almost!

NaibofTabr,

That’s acute angle.

LemmyNameMyself,

A perfect 89° angle

deegeese,

Draw an 88° angle, label as 89°.

Kindness,

Some people may think you are joking.

For those who do: I assure you, the arc in the picture is less than 88°.

throwaway2567,

Draw a 91° angle, rotate 17° clockwise.

Label it as 89°.

leap123,

Chaotic evil
