That's sort of why I asked. I thought I was missing something but no, the meme is apparently assuming academic professionals are dummies. Not to say that we should expect nuance and robust portrayals from a meme.

They say he was Hell Bent for Leatherback turtles

Thanks. I suspect a mathematician would consider the latter point too though.

Can somebody explain the difference between the mathematician and the scientist parts of this?

Maybe C3PO was a kit. Like a gay robot Lego set for ages 5-12. Those Jawas can sell practically anything.

You mean the planet full of sand that's somehow central to the entire Skywalker saga despite supposedly being a remote mostly criminal hideout in the outer rim.

And actually the droids were there to deliver Leia's message to Obi-Wan.

What's fucked up is that this was actually a popular thing to do in Victorian times.

African penguins maybe? They're endangered. I took my partner to feed them at an aviary.

I feel like I've seen a black rhino before, maybe at the San Diego zoo as a kid or something. Those are critically endangered, all but one subspecies extinct.

Same for German.

That's just emphasis. You can tell because you can shift it to another word.

• What's your name? (more pointed)
• How old are you? (as if it's now suddenly of concern)
• Where are you from? (maybe the person has an unusual accent)
• Where are you from? (more pointed)
• How old is your daughter? (shifting from discussing someone else's daughter)

Retro Games Corps got hit, even though Russ only does legal emulation and backups. It's his "2nd strike" on YouTube (3rd is channel deletion). He's always been mindful of the situation and considerate of not spoiling games or encouraging anything close to piracy from what I've seen.

Different chili varieties definitely have their own flavors. Even blindfolded you'd probably be able to tell apart sauces made with poblanos vs banana peppers (both can have basically zero heat).

Chilis have a natural variation in heat, which depends a lot on growing conditions. Jalapeños can range from ~2000 to 8000 scovilles. The hotter ones don't taste different, they just have more capsaicin. That molecule itself has no flavor, it just triggers the heat receptors in your cells.

Maybe your perception of the heat has gotten entangled with the flavor so cognitively one is less satisfying without the other. But that's specific to your perception and not how it works at the chemical level of the plant or human sensory cells.

So buy the regular variety? They're far easier to find.

I needed this. Thanks.

Ooh, do German next!

Ugh, so gross. Also a good pick 👍

"If I Could Turn Back Time" by Cher, thus proving to her for a fraction of a nanosecond that her premise was actually possible after all, before every trace of the tune ceases to exist.

Even better, bananas foster flavor

Only if you're not creative.
