I like how my 'I voted' sticker has a bull majestically sharting out the stars from the city flag.

i can't think of a better way to get shy kids to engage and learn than to figuratively put them on a pedestal in front of the whole class and have them demonstrate that they don't know the answer.

it's only a duvet if it comes from the Duvet region of France, otherwise it's just a sparkling blanket

100kW can raise the temperature of 1L of water from 20C to 100C in 3.34 seconds. It's enough power to brew about 300 shots of espresso in 30 seconds. That seems like a lot to me.

For anyone wondering, a 172 can hold 3 adults including the pilot, cruises at 115mph, and burns about 9 gallons of fuel per hour so it gets 12.8 miles per gallon. A Learjet 45 can hold 11 people, cruises at 510mph, and burns about 200 gallons per hour so it gets 2.2 mpg. A Boeing 787-9 can hold 290 people, cruises at 560mph, burns 2000 gph, and gets 0.28mpg.

The 172 uses 2.63 gallons per person to go 100mi, the Learjet uses 4.06 gallons, and the 787 uses 1.23.

A 2022 Toyota Corolla gets around 40mpg highway and squeezes 5 people inside so it uses 0.5 gallons per person per 100mi.
