AnoHito posted:I was born, raised, and currently live in Nee Jersey, and not only have I never even seen a Portuguese restaurant, I don't even what the hell Portuguese food is like. Check out the Ironbound section of Newark, there’s tons of amazing Portuguese and Brazilian food. Portuguese seafood is awesome. That said I’m surprised it wasn’t Italian food, which is everywhere in NJ.

I want to see the map of "Southern Style Sweet Tea Availability". I mean, you call sodas* "sugar water"? Drink this! * I thought "cokes" in my head, but managed to still write "sodas".

I went into a pizza place that had three tea dispensers available, one labeled "Unsweet," one labeled "Sweet" and another labeled "Southern Sweet." And I appreciate that.

Light was invented in 1879 and traveled about 1053387.64 km since. c = (1053387640 m/((2018-1879)*365*24*60*60 s) = 0.240307215 m / s! According to the graph the probe travelled 724204 km since 2018 so it's really a lot faster than light. Makes sense since it's a probe going into the sun, it has to travel faster than light to overcome photon shower slowdown. Selklubber has a new favorite as of 17:07 on Mar 13, 2018 |

This is why they call the olden times "The Dark Ages", as light had not yet been invented.

Or to look at it another way, if the y-axis on that was drawn to scale, the image would be roughly 1080 by 3843000 pixels in size.

So ... Condom usage is directly related to hotdog consumtion in the US. I just wonder, were those hotdogs consumed before or after sex? How many sausages or even hot-dogs were lost in the abyss? It's an interesting topic to look into.

I would think that increased hot dog consumption would correlate with higher sexual activity, personally

Ignite Memories posted:How are you getting that from that data It's in the key:  According to the chart condom usage is directly related to hot dog consumption amongst US students. This leads me to conclude that Frankfurters Würst is used as a penis surrogate by US students when there isn't a direct availability of a condom. You can see fewer Frankfurters Würst are 'consumed' when condom usage increases. "Want to suck my Würst my dear?"
