I've learned that some people are just wrong, and that's okay. ❤️

I'm not understanding your counterpoint... it's a scale no matter which system you use?

To be fair, my husband might approve more if we just hang out instead anyway...

The fact that you used AI to write this is... perfection.

In depth comparison. I still buy pasture raised meat & eggs for my family for ethical reasons. You're right though, it's mostly appearance as for the actual product.

We thought you didn't know the band members, not the definition of mirage and oasis.

A mirage is an optical illusion, very commonly seen in the desert, and often portrayed as a wonderful water oasis when a person is dehydrated and lost. Of course, the band Oasis isn't standing in the desert either, so it must be a mirage too.

I'm black, for context. The guy said they were the most racist he's personally met. Can't really argue with anecdotal evidence. My family is from Jamaica, and I can say, with shame, that I did come the the US with some preconceived notions about African Americans. It's doesn't speak at all to the atrocious Emerald mines or even the MAGA flag wielders next door, but it is a real issue.
