Easy there, tiger. 1/3 incorrect.
I wasn’t going to explain all of the health effects, aside from an irritant, that the “!” could indicate, especially when the general rule of thumb is to go over the SDS when you see the symbol. The second symbol is definitely for indicating a hazard to aquatic life.
The “G” in the third was confused with a “Q”, given the printer resolution. I wasn’t sure, so I used more relative wording for saying what it looked like on my screen.

That makes more sense, I wasn’t sure why they would be talking about dosage on a mfr label

The exclamation can mean that it’s an irritant. It could also be other potential health concerns.
Try not to be too quick when trying to correct someone next time, especially when you are only half right

The first is a standard warning symbol, telling you to read the warnings.
The middle looks to imply that it’s harmful to aquatic life; so no flushing, (upside-down fish and a piece of coral)
Third one seems to be dosage frequency, but saying a symbol isn’t available. (QHS = taken every night)

You might be overlooking the undertone of sarcasm in the complaints. No one is actually truly mad or anything, more humorously cynical of it.
I think most of it stems from how half-assed the censorship usually is along with the relative pointlessness considering how common explicit words are on the internet

Going by the writing on the wall, it’s for a 3-way dimmer switch. It also is likely the picture was taken during its install and not from someone trying to find a stud

I’ll have to try this with a coworker’s. He was also auto tech, so it’ll have to be hidden well…

For a solid cut of beef, that’s my goto. But for ground beef, I would go closer to medium, both for food safety and so it doesn’t fall apart in my hands too easily

Way back, years ago, and if memory serves…
There was short story about Harry Potter in a Disney Adventures magazine one month and I think that was supposed to be all there was as far as the story. The popularity of it may have had JKR rushing to build a more in depth story and throwing anything in it that seemed whimsical and fun to a kid, regardless if it made sense.

Try with a different/new cable.
The contacts on a USB-C cable can become fatigued and lose the tension needed to maintain a solid connection, which can cause this issue.

It might be by locale. I live a couple blocks from a high school and I’m seeing the opposite. Kids are wearing baggier and baggier jeans, some even near JNCO style.

Meme:
why did boys stop wearing jeans like this??
My answer:
I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.
(I.E. They are still wearing them, and in different colors)

The picture is of a vaccination though, not euthanasia. It’s a random stock image chosen by someone who doesn’t have any practical medical knowledge.
This would be a more apt image…
But, yeah barbituates are only IV or IC (intracardial; mainly for small animals like hamsters)

Here’s a quick video to add, giving the reasons for the 3 drugs. youtu.be/aP7rP6_OxKI
While it may not seem too bad on the surface, there is relatively high failure rate of 7.12%, which is pretty alarming as most of them were doses (of any of the drugs) that weren’t high enough. (Some may even have been intentional)
- Comment on This woman must have a really bad dog 1 month ago:
That’s actually the correct technique for a subcutaneous injection. You have to tent the skin with 2-3 fingers so that the needle can get under the skin layer without going too deep.
- Comment on This woman must have a really bad dog 1 month ago:
It is. All anesthetics used for euthanasia (mostly barbituates), that I know and recall, are either given via IV (in a vein) or IC (directly into heart). Nothing other than certain vaccines or just fluid are given subcutaneously.

It was the last part of the show where they pull two people from the team to try to get 200 points for the extra prize.
Both cannoli and tiramasu got zero, with ice cream as the top answer.
