Yeah, that seems to align nicely with the instincts I outlined in my comment. No need to apologize. Thanks!

From what I googled, it's especially bad when you pair "man" and "female" together, which makes sense to me.

No stupid questions time: This kind of lurks in the back of my mind and I sometimes find myself hesitating to use the term "female" to refer to female figures in any context. I don't have to do that, right? Like, would "woman lawyer" be better than "female lawyer" in contexts where specifying gender might be relevant? I would conversely prefer the term "male lawyer" in the same context and "man lawyer" sounds just as odd to me as "woman lawyer". "Lawyer who is a woman" is a little verbose, too. Am I overthinking this?

TL;DR? It's not written like an article at all (i.e. the important information isn't what's included first like it's supposed to be). It's all one long buried lede that goes on and on.

I was curious, so I pasted it into a word processor. This article is literally thirty three pages long. It's really more of a short story than an article.

I feel like I heard somewhere that French inches were longer than English inches and that Napoleon was actually a little taller than average. Not gonna bother trying to find what youtube video I might have heard that from, though.

I think this is a pretty good representation of rams in pastry form. I can see the phallic resemblance, but honestly, I think this isn't bad at all. If you wanted to be sure they wouldn't be confused with anything other than a ram, perhaps you could get some food-grade paints and paint in eyes, nose, mouth, nostrils, etc. I think the faces being painted/frosted on would help eliminate the tendency to see a dick and make it less ambiguous.

I've had to read a few old German documents for personal genealogical research and good god, the handwritten words were hard to make out. Spent like 20 minutes just trying to read the phrase "ein und funfzig" (51, as in 1851). Someone else who'd read those documents completely misread them and listed his birthyear 20 years later than it should be, implying he was a 13 year old boy when he married a 30-something year old woman.

4% of a fart is oxygen, according to the article, which is enough to react with all of the hydrogen-sulfide, since 1 mole of oxygen is enough to react with more than 1 mole of hydrogen-sulfide (H₂S makes up around 1% of the total volume).

TL;DR: No. The half-life of hydrogen-sulfide (one of smelliest constituents of a fart) reacting with the oxygen in the jar from just your fart is 12-37 hours. The article gives an example of a particularly potent hypothetical fart that would only retain any distinguishable odor for 9 days tops.

It already exists as the intro to one of the maps in Nazi Zombies in COD: Black Ops

Not too far from the one I came up with:

Show me your feet, boys

And taste my soles

Treat my toes like a tootsie roll and lick away

Lol, they look goofy as hell without anyone depicted to oppose them. Like, just a group of guys dramatically giving war cries and striking battle poses to a completely uninhabited stretch of shore.
