That’s a fair point. I can try to avoid politics in this community in the future.

As for this post, I’ll defer to the community mod to either leave it up or take it down. No hard feelings from me either way.

It’s a TikTok meme that blew up a few days ago. Google “hawk tuah”.

That cheaper 88 octane fuel is a blend of 85% unleaded gasoline and 15% ethanol. It’s also known as E15 fuel.

The ethanol is an oxygenate: it adds oxygen atoms to the fuel mix so the fuel burns more completely. That’s good for vehicle emissions. However, the ethanol is less energy dense than gasoline so you will get slightly worse mileage.

This exact product was used in a case of intentional poisoning in Michigan:

It’s amazing humanity has survived. So many old products were like “Here’s some concentrated poison. Spread it in your house, on your food, and in the air you breathe. It also makes a great toothpaste and eyeliner!”

We went through all this trouble to develop the F-15. It would be a crime against humanity to leave it on the ground.

The original, I believe:

Some people had magazine racks next to the toilet. There was a whole Seinfeld episode about George taking a book into the bathroom.

Lllllllike a glove!
