My first thought was not this kind of transformer, but rather this kind and I was wondering how tf you make a costume out of it.
I heard those are called pigs sometimes because of their shape and weight
Maybe its serous. I wanted to be an ATM.. and was... and won a competition with a costume I made myself. Kids are weird and can be very non-conforming to the trends.
At least it’s not sanguineous or we might have to take you back to theatres.
That is so adorable
"But daaad, I wanna be a three phase"
that costume is way better than it has any right to be
It looks like they ripped that thing right off of a telephone pole.
Is that why I have been unable to call out all day? Shit! Damn kids!!
Child: We'll see who has the last laugh when you put you in the nursing home 10 years early.
Parent: As if you'll be able to afford one for me.
Ha ha! Not if I pull the ladder up behind me!

It’s just a phase. They will get over their reluctance.
It’s just a phase. They will get over their ~~reluctance~~ resistance.
(Sorry, I had to)
Transformers don’t deal much with resistance though…reluctance I was referring to magnetic reluctance which is the magnetic analog…more applicable to the transformer in this case. Thanks for the interesting exchange 🙃
Today I learned that magnetic components of the electric system use a different type of resistance. It's not the same as inductance though?
Surely you meant impedance?
Nope! Referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_reluctance
🤪
Huh. I live with a power engineer and he's never bored me to tears with this one!
Honestly I don’t know much about these things but have been around electrical engineers! I looked up a few things I will admit 🙂
This threads capacitance for humor is remarkable
It's also shocking, if you're not careful with these powerful puns.
I recommend meditation in this case. Ohm... Ohm... Ohm...
Oh Henry! did that one hurt.

When she alternates on her decision 50 times a second
US pic (note the wall outlet). That would be 60 times per second. And yes, I'm fun at parties.
Either way, that look of disappointment hertz.
You think there was resistance?
Watt, you think this is funny?
I did get a bit of a charge out of it.

I hope she actually liked the outfit. She looks kinda uncertain
She looks more on the split side if you ask me.
Transformer, little girl in disguise!
Transformer, when it explodes, avert your eyes!
(Seriously though, the arc flash of a failing transformer can cause blindness)

As much as I like a good trolling, I feel that ruining your child's halloween for a pun is a step too far.
Do you think it likely, perhaps, that the daughter is in on the joke and the expression is this thing called ...
ACTING!
(Genius!)
...?

@ZDL Poor child. This is one Dad joke that took a great deal of effort to deliver. Think of the therapy bills that await. Meanwhile, I'm sharing with my electrician friends.
You have to admire the dedication this father has to damaging the development of his child.
