Thanks copilot!
They wasted so much electricity coming up with that nonsense when they could have just said it’s FLUID and maybe directed you to some kind of remedial education center.
Hey, that’s my doctor
We call them “Flounces” actually.
I’ve chosen to read it as “fluid ounces” for years, never once questioning “how is a fluid ounce different from a regular one?”.
Fluid ounce is a measure of volume (8 fluid ounces per cup) ounces is a unit of weight (16 ounces per pound)
The most confusing part of this to me is having this feeling of only remembering seeing floz on orange juice boxes, so it could have been Florida for all I knew. Thanks for the clarification that I’m only going partially insane!
measures your solids in fluid ounces
It’s the Murikan way to copy milliliters, which are the same as cubic centimeters volumetrically.
Fluid ounces are cubic nurples.
By pure coincidence, you’ve chosen to read it the exact way it’s meant to be read.
If you only see the abbreviation fl oz and happen to live in Florida, I can see making the connection. People don’t talk about ounces being both a volume (fl oz) and weight (oz) measurement. Go metric and you don’t have to know!
Subreddit is wrong, there are stupid questions.
With the metric system, this would not be an issue.
I wonder if they like putting Kentucky Jelly on their toast.
When I was growing up in FL it was ‘five fingers’, but later was standardized to 28.35g.
That, in a nutshell, is a good indirect explanation for you if you’re still unsure how it could happen that Trump got elected for a second term.
That took me too long
Oh grow up and use liters like normal people.
Sounds like something someone from Florida would say
I was thinking this was going to be something like a logsday post but then I realized it was just as weid but different.
