If 250ml of garlic sauce is a menu item, someone likely conceived of this ahead of time.

Someone else using fortran in research checking in. In particle physics, were basically writing huge, physics heavy Markov chain monte Carlos in it. Just one example.
You are 100% the person this post is about, and 100% American. Those are 100% of the relevant percentages.
My mum used to work in a town where they make a kinda popular chocolate in middle Europe, like small step up from store brand type stuff (milka, in case anyone's faniliar). She'd always bring home their factory shop 'mystery chocolate' that was very openly literally this: the bars right after they'd switch flavors, and they would be a non predictable mix between the two. I loved that stuff more than the actually store bought chocolate as a kid because you'd genuinely never know what you'd get. They came in these super non distinct plain white wrappers too, which added to the charm.
Tangential, for ambulance cost only.
Once a year, I get a sort of info letter that lists every bill my healthcare has paid for me that year. So, I know what medical costs actually are in my country where healthcare prices aren't being artifically inflated by healthcare being privatised.
I had a short ambulance ride in 2020. It was billed for about 90€. That's what it would actually cost if they couldn't charge whatever tf they want due to privatised healthcare.
One of the most disappointing facts when learning English was how many different animals are just called goat or deer
Idk how general it is, but for my uni acc 2fa you can simply get a USB stick with tokens on it. Friend does the same for their e-id to avoid linking it to their phone number.
Nobody tell them that Norway and Switzerland also participate in Erasmus. Not to mention it's far from the only way to get a study visa. Or that it usually only lasts about twice as long as the max tourism visa (3 months).
Love my job. Still wouldn't spend a second doing it for zero pay.
Half of these are still in use simply because some people think they're cool, or when someone prefers to not have to rely on technology (e.g. paper maps don't run out of electricity while you're on a long hike).
Im in the EU thankfully, it's not legal to record strangers (except like, a crowd where you can't make out individuals that well). They may be watching me from the window, but they don't talk like village folks do.
Idk how old OOP is, but I'm almost 30 and I never got a polio vaccine. My mum was very diligent getting me vaccinated too, I got all the whoopng cough, measles etc. shots. Even got tuberculosis for some reason, but polio was considered so near extinct that it wasn't on the list.
(thanks for making me check my vaccination passport to confirm this btw, found out this way that I need to get something refreshed)
