Spheres and hyperbolas. EDIT: oh they mean this specific shape not just any non-Euclidean square, so those won’t work.

I haven’t thought about a cone much but I think no.

The definition of a square is a polygon with four equal sides and four equal angles (nothing about 90 degrees and nothing about internal vs external angles since people love to get hung up on that)

A cone is half a hyperbola but I think without the symmetry of a hyperbola you can only get two angles equal at a time or two sides equal at a time.

Corn flakes were famously invented to discourage fucking one’s self.

Squares are defined as polygons which are defined as having all straight lines.

In the US basically anything paved is pavement.

Asphalt road: Pavement

Concrete sidewalk: Pavement

Giant parking lot: Pavement

Gravel road: Believe it or not - paveme… well that one’s debatable.

Tone is nearly always a bullshit argument used to dismiss the content of what’s said without addressing it.

Good communicators don’t worry about it too much because there are lots of reasons someone can take a certain tone - for example if they’re tired or stressed! So they just make sure they understand what the person is conveying without worrying about how it’s conveyed.

Someone who focuses much on tone is likely a poor communicator themselves, or frequently just trying to be manipulative.

While sedation is also accurate, I suspect you meant sedition.

This is Iran. The mini-bombs were in Lebanon.

This is the third group of people Israel is trying to kill in their apparent attempt to start World War III

Is that a pool of blood?

This misunderstands the motivations of real-life evil people.

Once you accept there is no afterlife, that your legacy means nothing, and that you’re a piece of shit who has no desire to contribute to society or help others - only your personal success and self-pleasure while living matter.

Tarquin says it best, though much more humorously, here: https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0763.html

By Rush’s personal measure, he absolutely won. So did Kissinger. So did Reagan. Trump and Jones and Rogan are on track.

You don’t beat such people with legacy.

This one doesn’t even call her “Hawk Tuah girl”.

When you inflate a balloon with your breath is it more bouyant?

That is exactly the difference between weight and mass. And yes, that would be weightless and objects like balloons have negative weight until they reach an altitude where they’re neutrally bouyant and then are weightless.

Weight is defined as a force and has a direction. That’s what causes the movement. If the weight didn’t change there would be no movement.

I’m gonna be the guy that points out cucumbers are spiky before they get to the grocery store…

Apparently it’s not just an American thing, but maybe other countries have more sense not to do it anymore.

They’re usually in “high end” restaurants in big cities like Las Vegas. The ones I recall usually have the sinks somewhat separated from the stalls with a partition or turn, but they’re not wholly separate rooms. The motivations are probably more needing money, access to a fancy place, and being an extrovert than perversion - more windshield wiper gig than peeping Tom.

I think it’s a combination of a holdover from another time that maybe was useful when they had an expanded role - they probably actually used to keep the bathroom clean, and some guys will shine shoes etc. - and tip-based service jobs they gave to poor people. I think they do get an hourly rate, but it’s probably below minimum wage for the same reasons waiting tables is.

A gem from Matt Parker

Bathroom attendants - since people got all the high value stuff.

I don’t mean people that clean the bathroom etc.

I mean the guy that stands at the sink and makes awkward small talk before handing you a towel you could have got yourself and expects a tip.

EDIT: Y’all I’m pretty sure no one’s having sex or shooting up in the bathroom at the fucking Eiffel Tower restaurant in Las Vegas … Coke - probably. I don’t know where anyone else has seen a bathroom attendant, but every place I’ve seen one at I’ve been wearing a suit…

You should probably look up what evangelical actually means then: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelism

It requires proselytizing.

Math is hard…

Most countries don’t have more than one shooting a day.
