This one never fails to get a solid chuckle out of me!
The comedic timing of him freaking out about the bush just a few beats after the firework chaos does down is just.... chef's kiss
Limonene can either smell like pine or oranges depending on what way the molecule is mirrored.
Damn, that's interesting. My first thought on hearing that was wondering if pine scented cleaning products are a thing because it's cheaper to synthesize limonene in both chiralities and then separate after the fact than it is to just synthesize the orange-smelling version.
It doesn't really hold up to much scrutiny, but it would be pretty damn cool if that fact explained both OP's question, as well as explained pine-scented cleaning products!
You know, normally I just block trolls and idiots, but tagging them descriptively definitely sounds more interesting...
I had to google what "387th Penny" meant. Apparently "penny" is short for "penetration flight". So this was his 387th flight into a hurricane

It literally sounds like a DDoS!
Not discounting your mild infuriation, but I am 100% certain that if they switched to being individually wrapped tomorrow, a complaint about excessive packaging would be one of the top posts here.
I'm not sure about Germany, but these have been sold in the US for decades now, and have always been 2 bars per wrapper as long as I can remember.
I have this exact puzzle!
The small differences actually make it fun to put together, and my spouse and I both enjoyed it!.

Except it's literally just an economics term referring to positions that can be reasonably learned through on the job training with little or no prior experience.
Stuff like this just muddies and distracts the conversation from the true issue, which is that those jobs deserve a living wage.
Hear me out for a second...
Maybe, just maybe, it's spending 3 hours in stop and go traffic that's the problem, not the transmission.
If LEGO and soda cans, which are very low cost, can do this, so can we.
This man is a certifiable idiot, and I feel bad for anyone working for him.
I feel like there is context missing here. The situation is just way too specific...

This right here is hitting on the real problem. People are fed bullshit from firehoses coming in all direction, so they feel like they are informed because of what they have passively taken in. It takes some real effort to step back and think "What if the things I've been hearing are not the full story?", and even more effort to take the next step and actively seek out information that might challenge what you have already heard and internalized. We are ALL guilty of this to some degree.
Precisely--it is 100% the point. If you are stressed out working 2 jobs and raising a kid, you are going to have a lot less energy to keep your bullshit detector running and the simple solutions to complex problems naturally sound more appealing.
