It’s always wild to me that 100% heating efficiency is actually kinda not great. Also the fact that we can use the heat from air that is colder than what we want in order to generate more heat I mean that’s just witchcraft.
Well, we're not generating heat with heat pumps. We're compressing atoms to make them angrier and pass other atoms by that bunch to even out the angriness. Could also substitute the word jiggy for angry.
Huh, so what if the jiggy atoms come in contact with batman atoms?
Then Batman is going to have to get jiggy with it.
Na-na na-na nana?

Superman tries to shake off Batman, but Batman just smiles and tenses his anus even more...
I am appalled, but... That's just... I'm speechless. Genuinely.
These are not the facial expressions of distressed men
And since very little heat is generated, we don't further heat up our planet. Not much, anyway. electricity generation is another issue if it's fossil based, but at least less is used.
I get that(enough, anyway, I just need to watch some videos on them to be honest) but it’s still super wild to say out loud.
Which part, getting jiggy wit it or the witchcraft?
