C'mon you apes...pigs, frogs, rats, chickens, and, eh, looks at gonzo whatever.

Dude, it's in the synopsis in the post.

Both parent species are prolific breeders, capable of forming massive colonies and spreading rapidly. The fact that these hybrids are swarming—and potentially just as fertile—raises major red flags.

I see milk thrown around as the common thing people are supposed to know about. I'm lactose intolerant and have no idea how much a gallon of milk costs. It's unlikely you could find 10 things that everyone buys and has similar pricing across brands and variations.

The United States has no plans to ever pay its debts. Treasury bonds are just slightly appreciating currency at this point.

I think it'd be perfectly normal if they just didn't write around it and that was the amount of Millhouse that was planned in the episode regardless of the voice actor.

if it correlated with someone trying to print something it might be a driver issue. a single job every day on all printers is probably a network scan

they wouldn't ask you for your transcripts, they'd contact the university. If they think you faked your resume then it'd be silly to trust you to provide valid transcripts.

Nah, you just figured out the Hero's Journey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero%27s_journey

You can apply a similar rubric to Star Wars or Harry Potter.

It's right there on the top of the graph.

"Which of the following animals, if any, do you think you could beat in a fight if you were unarmed?"

It'll die when it's not getting the ratings to carry on anymore. Stop watching and it'll stop being made.

I'm not certain about the history of this particular person, but there's a military tradition built around carrying a pfennig.

from https://www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-history/military-challenge-coin-origins :

Another lower enlisted tradition began in post-WWII Germany as assigned U.S. troops would carry West German money with them. The exchange rate was so bad that the One Pfennig coin was hardly worth a fraction of a penny and had nearly zero value to American troops. So, only the poorest of the poor would bother saving them — until troops gathered to drink. If someone would shout, “Pfennig check!” everyone would empty their pockets to see who was poor (if you had the near-worthless coin) and who wasn’t (if you were above keeping them). If you were “rich” enough to not need to carry a worthless coin, you were rich enough to buy your brother-in-arms a drink.
