~~it's a 1.5 billion-year-old star~~
~~sharks are 300 million years old at best, if you date them to their ancestors in the Permian period~~
idk anything, ignore me, I'm just a simple, ill-tempered sea bass
Polaris Aa is only 60 ish million years old, polaris Ab is under 500 million. Polaris B is the 1.5 billion years old one. Polaris A is the vastly brighter of the three and is typically what people mean when they refer to the three stars.
Also re: the age of sharks, 300 million is a low estimate. It's like 300 to 420 million, depending on how you define a shark.
I've always wondered what itsb stood for.
you're invited and encouraged to create your own meanings, here are a few to get you started:
ignorant, terrified, scrawny bastard
illustrious truly sexy beach
ingrown toenail stuff bad
inguinal tear salve book
ibbit-ibbit tweet-tweet soooooweeee bokbok
holy shit its an austin powers reference lmao. My sister, my cousin, and I used to quote that movie ALL THE TIME. There are still some I use regularly, like "Allow myself to introduce.... myself" when meeting strangers usually at a bar or party or something.
Ooh, I would have never remembered that!
