Supposedly the yellow ones have a little more flavor but I can never find those.
But yeah the best pink dragonfruit I had tasted like water with just the smallest hint of sugar and lawn clippings. So disappointing.

Good pick. The goo inside looks like vibrant chunky snot but tastes amazing.


That’s a good one. A local bar has Shit on a Shingle on the menu and it’s tempting to get every time. But when a friend joins up who has never heard of it, they’re like “What the fuck did you just order??”. Then a few beers later they get the courage to try it and discover it’s one of the best shitty drunk foods ever.


The quark flavors were given their names for several reasons. The up and down quarks are named after the up and down components of isospin, which they carry.[60] Strange quarks were given their name because they were discovered to be components of the strange particles discovered in cosmic rays years before the quark model was proposed; these particles were deemed “strange” because they had unusually long lifetimes.[61] Glashow, who co-proposed the charm quark with Bjorken, is quoted as saying, “We called our construct the ‘charmed quark’, for we were fascinated and pleased by the symmetry it brought to the subnuclear world.”[62] The names “top” and “bottom”, coined by Harari, were chosen because they are “logical partners for up and down quarks”.[41][42][61] Alternative names for top and bottom quarks are “truth” and “beauty”,[nb 4] but these names have somewhat fallen out of use.[66] While “truth” never did catch on, accelerator complexes devoted to massive production of bottom quarks are sometimes called “beauty factories”.


Yep, quarks are spin-1/2 particles. They also have electric charge and color charge (strong nuclear force).
Perhaps… Mobile pontifical ape exhibit?


Sharks also predate basically all big recognizable surface geology features on earth. They’re way older than the Grand Canyon or the Himalayas. It kind of makes sense once you realize they date back to the Pangea supercontinent.
Also, biologically modern humans are much older than Niagara Falls.


Ah okay, I get it now. You explained that perfectly, thanks! That’s a good weird geography fact.


I don’t understand the clock one.
The shark fact is impressive though. I like to tell folks that the galaxy is so big that the solar system hasn’t even made 1/4 of an orbit since the non-avian dinosaurs went extinct. Might add some perspective.
Nitpick: there are many species of shark so maybe you meant taxonomic genus or family.


If you’re not familiar with the flavors of quarks, they probably seem fake.
Of course they all have antimatter counterparts. But anti-up is not the same as a down quark, anti-top is not the same as a bottom quark, etc.
Pretty much same story as curry, but good ol’ Texas chili looks pretty unappealing. Of course it’s damn good assuming it’s made right.
