OT: 117th Obsequious Banter Thread: National Cookie Day is celebrated in December

It's one of those written in an ambiguous way on purpose questions so people on the internet will argue over order of operations for the 1000000000 time.

The comments are a sight to behold....a lot of "the answer is 4" in those comments.

It could be 4. It could be 36.

Saw this twice on IG tonight. I'm ready to throw my phone across the room reading the comments...

PEMDAS

Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

The answer is 4.

 

[Jack Straw]

It could be 4. It could be 36.

It IS 36. Paren’s first, then L to R.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Wow guess I was wrong. Even my own calculator says 36. Well shit. Guess I am rusty.

The 10 person disclosure panel and provision requiring UAP recovered craft to come into government possesion have been stripped from the defense funding bill.

Don’t feel too bad. It’s written as calculator input. There’s a reason that notation disappears after grade school arithmetic

Even if there’s nothing to the UAP/NHI whistleblower accounts, everyone should agree that defense spending should get more oversight. There’s no reason for disclosure to be controversial

@JojoTheWhale nevermind Sorry.

I love this idea, for its function AND its design. Very nice.

I was served a Twitter ad that made me aware of the dumbest conspiracy theory I have ever come across. There is a group of people who don’t believe planes are flying on traditional fuels because the capacities are too large to be believed. I am speechless.

It’s also quite the commentary on the state of who advertises on Twitter, but that’s another discussion.

The only advertisers left on Twitter are the ones that don't care if their ads show up next to some vile shit. So.... yeah

Meanwhile the site's fearless leader is crying "ad boycott" topKEK

Disclosure had significant momentum until a couple of Republicans in congress were paid off to kill it. This country blows.

Social media is a huge cesspool. My anxiety can’t deal with the shit on social media

I wonder how many cookie brands have been subjected to this travesty. So shrinkflation is not enough...gotta change the ingredients with cheaper ones too.

Giant food companies are quietly ruining your favorite snacks — and hoping you don't notice

From Coke to Nutella, your favorite treats are being ruined by a sneaky ploy known as 'flavorflation.'

It is simple. Company gets bought. Things change. Breyers used to be independant, the Sealtest bought them, which was bought by Kraft, and then Unilever.

Kraft parmesan cheese always cracks me up ...basically flavored sawdust.

@JojoTheWhale basic, standard hard salami is considered Italian food, isn't it?
