I don’t know what to tell you; normally blood pressure is a numerical value of mmHg, but in this case, it came out as “best president ever”. ---

Nope! FDR’s got’em beat. By a mile. The graph shows FDR’s BP including the late war years. As I tell the students, _this_ is hypertension. None of that silly 160/100 stuff.

President Trump does not have a butthole. His system is perfectly balanced and he has no need for one. ---

> [@Superdude](#): > > There’s even a term for it: [“ragequitting.”](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rage%20quit) Ragequitting is just giving up out of anger. What Elon is accused of was intentionally killing his connection to make it look like he only lost because of a network issue. Not the same thing at all. What Elon allegedly did is referred to as an “[intentional disconnect](https://www.reddit.com/r/MyHeroUltraRumble/comments/17kgxho/what_an_intentional_disconnect_is/)” which is [very common](https://www.google.com/search?q=intentional+disconnect+game) in many online games. (Though Elon **may** have done a ragequit and used the intentional disconnect to cover it up.) ---
