That “millions” is quite the understatement…

These kind of memes honestly feel like Malboro found a way to circumvent advertising rules, so I assume the joke’s on all of us, I guess.

I know you’re probably joking, but in case anyone actually believes this: there is nothing the average person can do to balance out the negative health effects of smoking. No amount of exercise and healthy eating can cancel out inhaling poison.

What? Aspartame is classified as a possible carcinogen, but mostly to encourage further research. There’s an old rat study that claimed to show an increase in variois cancers, but it had a weirdly cancer-free control group and used levels far in excess of “a few cans per day”. AFAIK, no human studies have ever shown any significant correlation. It definitely hasn’t been “proven and accepted by the WHO”.

All rhombi are parallelograms.

If I’m not mistaken, he also calculated pi by hand (to several decimal places) during lockdown. So it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows for ol’ Isaac.

Bobby Broccoli recently did a whole series on how his brother came to power and what the dynamics at play are. It’s like 5 hours long, but worth a watch if you’re interested: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAB-wWbHL7VvVT1LbcOIkqkowoZry6Rfd

Getting rid of excess rupees is the real strength of the Malo Mart magic armour.

Ravens are equally close relatives, as are parrots.

Doesn’t make him not ace.

Sure, but I was responding to someone who was defining wasp (the common word) based on clade (using scientific words).

I’m fine with common parlance words for things. What I had issue with was arbitrarily restricting the definition of wasp to a specific clade, which would exclude ants and bees, and also a whole host of at the very least wasp-adjacent animals which would now be stuck with no real way to describe them.

(Also, yes, fish is a rubbish scientific word. We’re far closer cousins of salmon than sharks are. By any reasonable definition of fish, at least biologically, we are fish. You could redefine “fish” in the same way we define “tree”, i.e. based on structure and not on ancestry, but by that definition whales should still be fish. The word “fish” shouldn’t be allowed within 50 metres of cladistics.)
