I must be missing something.

I was in SFO once and noticed a phone on the wall with a sign that read “white courtesy phone”. The phone was red.

Toby from The West Wing would find this strange.

DOMONOSKE: No. And, you know, first of all, the Lightning will continue as a brand. It's going to be an extended-range electric vehicle, an EREV. It's a kind of plug-in hybrid. So you still have an electric motor that turns the wheels, but you also have a gas generator on board. So, you know, maybe your commute every day is all on battery. But if you want to tow a boat hundreds of miles without stopping, you fill up that gas tank and you can, right? And that was one of the big criticisms of the all-electric Lightning. It had very limited range if you were towing, which truck owners want to do or at least be able to do.

The article seems wrong on a couple of counts.

Two stars colliding does not create a supernova.

A white dwarf that consumes matter from a companion may eventually result in a type-1a supernova. But that’s not the same thing as two stars colliding.

There's a toilet paper ad where they claim they were voted number one product of the year.

Shouldn't they prefer to be number two?
