I put that shit on everything!

Wouldn't they be invisible? When I think about the mircoplastics in my blood.. I'm sure they're pretty damn small.. or I'd be dead

[-] lone_faerie 2 points 5 months ago

I imagine it's a bit like salt. On its own or in a liquid, it's pretty invisible. But put enough of it in one place and you'll be able to see it

[-] Kernal64@sh.itjust.works 45 points 5 months ago

The dollar sign comes before the number. Putting it behind the number is just another effect of micro plastics. 😢

[-] itslilith 30 points 5 months ago

Yet another American convention that makes no damn sense

"Hmm yes, I am going to buy that ice cream for dollar one"

[-] ccunning@lemmy.world 31 points 5 months ago

Thinking this is an exclusively American convention is yet another effect of microplastics…

We’re dooooooomed 😭

[-] itslilith 8 points 5 months ago

Sorry, too hungry, I ated them all 😞

I meant American and anglophone, don't think I'll forgive the British for that

[-] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 6 points 5 months ago

It's definitely not an EU thing. And the rest of the world don't count, especially New Zealand.

Whoever decided to use the comma as the decimal point definitely consumed too much micro plastic.

NZ doesn't even show on like half of the maps.

I dunno, seems reasonable to me in the same way that Spanish using "¿" at the beginning of a question makes sense.

That it's inconsistent with other units is certainly annoying, but if anything I think it's the more sensible way.

[-] CoffeeJunkie@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Spanish is definitely fucked, putting the adjective after the noun. You don't pet the brown dog, you pet the dog brown.

[-] xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

Languages have been using different word orders since time immemorial (see what I did there)

[-] lone_faerie 2 points 5 months ago

Idk, I kinda get it, adjectives are just descriptors. In Spanish, you can drop the end of the sentence and still get its meaning. You don't pet the brown, you pet the dog.

[-] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

This dog is black, not.

[-] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

It's a convention for writing checks. If the dollar amount on a check read "300.00$" there's nothing stopping me from writing "1300.00$" on there. But if you put "$300.00" that number is enclosed on both sides and there is no chance of being able to modify it (without significantly more effort that can be much more easily noticed)

[-] itslilith 5 points 5 months ago

Do it like $1300.00$ to fuck with LaTeX/Markdown renderers

[-] FreshLight@sh.itjust.works 17 points 5 months ago

In case anyone is interested in reading the text on the right:

[-] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 14 points 5 months ago

Good good

Let the microplastics flow through you

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

They're apparently not giving me a choice in the matter.

[-] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I try but they get stuck in my liver and kidneys.

[-] nonentity@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 months ago

All of those concepts were spawned from lead-addled generations, microplastics are their unleaded gift to their progeny.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

And that it’s no surprise it’s been so god-damn hot as of late, we’re never gonna be cold... You know the Devil is LOOOOORD

[-] menixator@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 months ago

needs more jpeg

[-] MuteDog@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Wait, how do I get the $400 per month health insurance?

[-] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 months ago

Why we gotta insult Osaka like that

[-] GluWu@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)
