‘teacher’, in fact, is a pointer that the person may have been an older man that topped the pupil. Yes, in a gay sex way.
We don’t even really know whether Sokrates was an actual person or made up by Platon though, let alone anything else.

If you want a rounded answer, press the rounded answer symbol. If you press the exact answer symbol, the calculator will give you an exact answer. It can’t guess what you want, you have to tell it.

Yep, maths and science are only partially about learning maths and science. The even more important purpose is learning critical reasoning skills, which is a requirement for media literacy.

How did that work? Were you that one kid who had a mobile, did you have them written down on a piece of paper, did you not go out by yourself, or did it not occur to anyone that you might need to call home (or even emergency services) in an emergency? Sorry this sounds so rude, I don’t mean to be, I’m just having a hard time imagining this.

I remember being like 7 and trying that out for myself by touching a lemon slice to different parts of my tongue. I think when I realised that it tasted sour regardless of where on my tongue I touched it to was when I first started questioning authority.

This is what ‘money can’t buy happiness’ used to, and should be, about. Construing it to mean that the rest of us should feel content living paycheck to paycheck (or worse) is gross. It’s true that you can want for nothing and still be miserable, though.

‘He and his family don’t exude old money elegance’ is pretty low on the list of what’s wrong with Trump. I’m not even sure it’s on the list at all.

I mean, it’ll be less than 3/4 if you always stand to pee, because people pee more often than they poop (of they hydrate sufficiently and there’s no health issue). But it’ll still definitely be over half, so the result is the same.

Can’t say for sure that nobody does, but I’ve never seen it. Juice mostly comes in tetra packs, like milk.

Huh I never knew! Thanks

That is fascinating!
- Comment on Coming out of my depression and starting to exercise again because an evil tool just ate floor 4 weeks ago:
If you do something enough, it’ll give you muscles even if it isn’t hard to do it once. Sure, you won’t get big and buff, but you will train your muscles- not everyone works out to get huge, many just want to feel physically better in their bodies. Just look at people who swim or dance as their only sport, or even those who do ‘light’ manual labour such as gardening. They look more muscular than those who don’t engage their muscles much at all.

I (European) got this much, but is a pitcher of orange juice so much of a thing someone would fall for it? I’ve never seen anyone store orange juice outside the tetra pack it comes in. (Other than some swanky event like a wedding)

Only if you kill them for being a fascist . Could’ve just been any random other reason.

Fascining, thanks! I might try that if I remember when I’m in GB next year
- Comment on It's banana, pineapple and cherry. 4 weeks ago:
Interesting! I haven’t been to GB in quite some years, so I might just have seen them and not remembered.
- Comment on How come butthole scratches doesn't get infected with poop bacteria ? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah I’ve since googled it too! The fact that the symptoms are something where it’s obvious there’s something severely wrong and that it’s treatable in hospital reassured me, too. I’ve also realised that it’s similar to toxic shock from a tampon, which I never worry about, but am glad to know is a small possibility. Sorry to worry you/gross you out though!

I’ve been to over 20 European countries and I have never seen anything blue raspberry flavoured. I assumed it was an American thing and that it was just raspberry flavoured things that were also dyed blue.

Beyond skin infections, what happens when they enter your bloodstream? Id figure that’d happen with a broken hemorrhoid, since it’s basically and open wound that poop just sits on all day
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 weeks ago:
Yeah pretty much my point. I know you can maybe kinda construe it into the truth if you already know about the topic, like other commenters age saying, but it’s presented as educational, and does a poor job at educating with how misleadingly it is phrased.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 weeks ago:
I mean, the sentence either implies what I said before, or it implies that the barycenter is a point outside the sun. I really don’t see any other reading than those two.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 weeks ago:
It says it’s so massive they orbit a common point. That directly implies this only happens over a certain mass.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 weeks ago:
The way this is phrased makes it sound like there’s a certain threshold where this starts happening. That’s not right. Even a grain of dust wouldn’t orbit the sun, they still orbit their common barycenter. A less misleading way of phrasing would be that Jupiter is massive enough that the barycenter of it and the sun actually lies outside the sun, which is still a cool fun fact.

In my experience they often just don’t give you the cent and nobody bats an eye. Idk maybe it’s because I live in a country that doesn’t have as much poverty as the US.

I have this bottle of laundry soap that fucks with my brain because it’s 2.97liters. Why would they try to mess with us to make us think there’s less detergent? Or are they suddenly trying to mess with us in that they know we round up in our heads anyway, so they get away with giving us 30ml less? If so, then why did it cost 6.99€? I checked whether it’s because it’s an exact multiple of their recommended dosage and it isn’t, the recommended dosage is 25ml.

He is, because spontaneous is, in fact, the correct term here.
But also, mansplaining just means that someone explains something to another person when it’s painfully obvious that the other person knows everything they’re explaining, often way better than the person who’s doing the explaining. Usually requires the over confidence that comes with unreflected privilege, such as being a man who subconsciously assumes that their gender gives them intellectual authority. Being wrong isn’t a requirement for mansplaining. This would be a textbook example even if he had left out the first sentence (the part where he’s wrong).
