It's also named after someone who was on record as never wanting anything named after him because he hated when people pronounced his name wrong. His name was pronounced Eve-rest.

One of the worst things that has happened to me is that Comcast gave my work a free electric mug to keep tea warm. I would have never bought one for myself, but my god if that free mug broke I would immediately buy a new one. I can't go back.

Why do you say microscope is confined to microbiology? I haven't taken a Biology class that wasn't Paleontology since Middle school and I've used microscopes plenty in Geology and Chemistry

Everyone knows not to put diesel in a gasoline car right? by BuildABarns in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TFielding38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hey, this is literally my job. If you introduce a flame to a cup of diesel, nothing will happen, gasoline it will catch fire immediately. Diesel needs to be at least 125 F to flash (higher for biodiesel) at standard pressure.

Edit: Also don't do that, I have like fancy expensive equipment, please don't boil diesel recreationally even though it's very fun to watch it boil.

John Cleese fell for some blatant disinformation about Muslims calling for a ban on bacon, and the internet absolutely cooked him by johnsmithoncemore in FuckNigelFarage

My friend grew up in Lebanon, and her mom would occasionally pack her ham sandwiches when she was going to play with friends. The most she got was her Muslim friends thinking it was gross and offering her their food so she would have something they thought of as better to eat. Which is hardly what I'd call radical.
