I wouldn’t say you’re wrong necessarily, just that prevailing indications suggest the opposite.

Disney’s FastPass: A Complicated History has a twist that Defunctland fans are still talking about four years later.

That’s not a given, and the human brain has very strong aversions to admitting fault.

Well, currently Ball doesn’t make any jars, as I understand it. And I don’t think it’s in Muncie anymore either. So the term is just a holdover.

Those do look really nice, for sure. They’d make great snack cups.

Oof. I think I lean more toward her side, to be honest. I don’t like having cold hands.

Ok.

Believe what you like. Including that all mathematics communication and education is flawless and incapable of any ambiguity, apparently.

But for your own growth as a person, I recommend you chew on this: the people who write these “questions” to put on Facebook are exploiting the exact same mindset that made you decide that insulting my intelligence was the best way to have this conversation, and using it to get a massive amount of rage-baity engagement. They’re not teachers trying to educate. They’re scammers trying to build up a following so that they can execute a scam.

Actual math educators, on the other hand, are moving away from using the “PEMDAS” (or “BEDMAS”) acronyms because of the ambiguity inherent in them, and using “GEMS” (or “GEMA”) instead. Partially because, if even smart people who know PEMDAS can get confused, the acronym must not be all that useful.

Anyway. You’re trying to make me mad, and for a minute it worked. But I’m over it. Again–have a good one.

Yeah, for sure. Though if you drink it fast enough, it won’t warm the drink noticeably before it’s gone.

See also: the Apollo Lunar Module (LEM), the humble US Postal Truck (LLV), and the F/A-18 Super Hornet, all made by the Grumman Corporation.

Great at conduction, but with not a lot of thermal mass, meaning that actually your drink will usually just make whatever it’s touching (your hand, often) super cold or hot.

Muncie, Indiana is was the home of the Ball Corporation, which is the company referenced in this meme. Also of Ball State University, founded by his endowment. Like “Mason jar” before it, “Ball jar” has become a genericized trademark for the object itself, especially in the Midwest.

I don’t take homework from insufferably smug jerks on the Internet. Have a good one.

They’re definitely not

Just patently untrue, but I’m no longer interested in this.

Someone did a study on various means of welfare support, and figured out that doing away with all other forms of poverty easement and replacing it with an equivalent amount of UBI would actually save taxpayers a significant amount of money. And further, it actually costs way more to try to identify and prosecute fraud than the system actually loses to said fraud.

I think the easiest way to accomplish UBI, without dealing with a lot of rigamarole and nonsense, would be to figure out what amount “basic” should mean—you suggested $2000/mo, but for some cities that would barely cover rent, so maybe let’s say $3000/mo—and then have anyone who wants any form of government financial assistance register with the UBI office, indicating the compensation they receive at their highest-earning job. The UBI office would then simply pay them the difference between $3000 and their monthly paycheck. UBI office automatically cross-references with the IRS every year, so you can’t hide income without getting audited.

I generally agree, but rather than making it a specific number, I think we should tie it to some multiple of the poverty line or the average income of the lowest 10% or something like that. That way, if the rich want to earn more, they have to make things materially better for the poorest people in society; and if they don’t do enough, the government takes that money to do it for them.

Wait…I know Depp was in that, but Burton and Carter didn’t have anything to do with it, did they?

Ok… you’ve stumped me on “Lone.” I think I get the rest, but…

Joke’s on you, the name of this category is “Music by Danny Elfman.”
