  Wait. Are you eating hot dogs parallel to the dog or perpendicular?

  It is an indicator that you’re heading in the right direction or not on topic for your question. You don’t have to have an emotional response to data for it to relevant.

  You’re getting down voted because your comment is confusing music with musical notation. You can’t hear whether someone is playing a whole note or a quarter note. You can keep rhythm and say that note was 4 times longer than the last one. 1/4 notes will always be 1/4 the length of a whole note in the same song (assuming no time signature or tempo changes), but they don’t define a certain length of note in real time.

  You just come back after candy getting hours. Why waste treat time tricky. That’s what sugar rushes are for

  At that point you will have smoked 4% of 100 joints. Hey, math is easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Broccoli Blooms⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it usually used to indicate unwanted flowering, but in lettuces (and to a lesser extent, basil) it indicates the beginning of the flowering attempt by the plant. Most people will cull their lettuce after it bolts (stem starts to elongate into an inflorescence), but way before there are any open flowers or even buds.

  Broccoli is weird though. We want it to bolt, but not really flower. That’s an odd thing for most plants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Broccoli Blooms⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not exactly. It is bolting when it starts sending up a flowering stem, the very beginning of flowering. Every broccoli I’ve ever eaten has bolted, but not many of them have bolted and flowered.

  As long as the anglosphere doesn’t include the USA. Most people here would be able to guess what a sausage roll is but most wouldn’t have seen one.

  What is a “leftover fries”?

  I appreciate your sacrifice. It would’ve been me if not you

  That’s a weird way to say “take a walk”, but ok.
