This is my secret weapon for knocking off the top korean tekken players at evo

Korean superstition. Most Koreans realize how stupid it is when they actually think about it, but for whatever reason they think sleeping in a closed room with a fan will kill them.

I think it was some enterprising parent trying to save on an energy bill who started the thing, and then it just spread from there.

me too. I have a small fan for winter and just use the AC fan every other season.

I can literally fall asleep in bright sunlight after sleeping 12 hours and drinking a whole pot of coffee just by listening to a fan while lying down.

>tfw I have this exact fan

It's also the secret weapon of your average smash player.

you guys laugh but think about all those Korean gamers who died after playing Starcraft 36 hours straight. their PC fans were running all night. cooincidence?

They're ridiculously powerful for their size. Also, that name: Vornado. It evokes so many laughs when I really try to imagine a Vore-nado

Old korean urban myth from when fans were first introduced that sleeping with an electric fan going would cause you to die in your sleep

what is that fisher price looking ass fan

The fan? shit, that whole room looks fucking dire and awful and dilapidated.

I guess, but fans consume such a minuscule amount of energy that it's a total non-issue, at least for smaller ones.

I ended up loving this thing a lot more than I ever expected to.
Stop buying those shitty box fans, just because they're big doesn't mean they circulate air very well.
They're the definition of inefficient.

Hey I have same fan my mom gave it to me

I have that same fan too

my fan right there

everyone should post their fan

It probably had one, originally.
Those types of fans are incredibly cheap and shitty and the grills break off very easily, with the whole thing being made of very flimsy plastic.
A blade broke off while turned on for fuck sake, I guarantee you it's not a product of quality.

he couldn't find a broadsword the hang by a thread above his bed. that fan was the next best thing

holy fuck even bedbugs are disgusted by that matress

I used to think these fuckers did some sort of wizardry to blow air but it turns out they just compress it at the base and send it up to shoot out of the ring, what's the damn point? they're always more expensive than regular ass fans

>out they just compress it at the base and send it up to shoot out of the ring
Thats not how it works, the air is pumped over the blade of the circle which drags more air through with it. There is wizardry at play

>works like a stock gpu blower
>more expensive
>adding more friction pieces to fan

seems retarded.

>works like a stock gpu blower
except it doesnt?
The circle is like a wing, air is forced over it and because of the wings shape more air is dragged over it.
A blower on a gpu sucks air in and forces it over the heatsink and out of the back of the case

NO NO NO TURN IT OFF user THAT IS NOT FAIR

pussy

tenor is just a website that is a .gif database, if someone image searches a gif of a reaction or something else there's a good chance the file will be from tenor, files from tenor have the default name of tenor

Oh god, my girlfriend always forces white noise to be on while our daughter sleeps. It's cool i guess because it drowns out noise from the living room and shit, but I always feel like it's gotta be fucking her up in the long run.
Did your parents do that and do you hate them for it?

why not make it a spiral filling in the gaping hole in the middle

That entire room looks like poor white trash, user. It hurts to look at.

You know, having never looked into them in the slightest or really paid attention to one irl, i always kinda thought these fans worked by creating sort of thermal currents in the room. Like a really small and efficient warm/cold front generator.

The guy you replied to already did.
I didn't know you guys were such based fanbros

my parents always slept with the tv on and loud. I could hear it from my room. well, not exactly hear it, but feel it. like in my teeth. to this day I can't fucking stand the sound of a tv several rooms away faintly vibrating through the walls

Lol

>all these weak ass fans

Out of the way kiddies, make way for a real fan

...strangely enough this thing has 3 different speed settings but I can't notice a difference between them, it's just "fucking powerful", "fucking powerful" and "fucking powerful". This shit's like standing in front of a miniature wind tunnel.

you know what's weird about my fan? it sounds different at different times of day. like at midday it'll be weak as hell, but at 2am it's loud as shit. I wonder if this has anything to do with the power grid

It's trying harder to kill you at 2 AM, duh.
