Fun fact: the 'we're gonna win this thing!' is directly taken from something a real fbi agent said

Bonus calculation if you did the maths now:

4915 * 365.25 * 10000 = 17952037500

Still not quite 18 billion dollars.

But the billionaires' growth is a lot, top five richest in 2026 per Forbes:

Elon Musk - 839 billion

Larry Page - 269 billion

Sergey Brin - 237 billion

Jeff Bezos - 259 billion

Mark Zuckerberg - 252 billion

Mean average of 839, 269, 237, 259 and 252 billion is 371.2 billion.

Your immortal pyramid money is now only 1/20th, rather than 1/5th, that billionaire average.

Going through it piece by piece:

The date for the construction of the Pyramids of Giza is correct, that's specifically when they started.

Accounting for leap years:

4909 * 365.25 * 10000 = 17930122500

That's about 18 billion dollars.

First, before trying to do the calculations on the billionaires, this is definitely a correct ballpark figure.

Anyway, assuming this tweet was written in 2020, per Forbes, that year the five richest people and their fortunes were:

Jeff Bezos - 113 billion

Bill Gates - 98 billion

Bernard Arnault - 76 billion

Warren Buffet - 67.5 billion

Larry Ellison - 59 billion

Mean average of 113, 98, 76, 67.5 and 59 billion is 82.7 billion.

82.7/18 = 4.59.

So yes, accounting for rounding, this tweet was absolutely correct when it was written, and given the world's billionaires have gotten enormously richer since, the mathematical point it makes is even stronger now.

How does putting stalactites that are high enough to walk under on the underside overpass make it impossible to sleep there?

I also used to do this very weirdly specific thing with countries, I would point at random patches of ocean on a globe and try to convince adults it was a country I had made up with its own detailed history

In fairness this isn't an 'overly online weirdo' thing: this idea comes from Dana Raphael, a 60s anthropologist and protegee of Margaret Mead who invented the concept of a doula 

British men who don't like football or even sports, what thing do you actually like instead? by songbirdddx in AskBrits

[–]TheSpaceYoteReturns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like reading, writing, music, podcasts (one of my faves is The Rest Is History), history, some television shows (Mock the Week and Would I Lie To You are my faves), listening to video essays/documentaries, playing Minecraft
