If it’s not made with macaroni, should it be called “mac and cheese”?
- Yes, because it’s a commonly understood name for pasta in cheese sauce regardless of the actual shape of the pasta
- No - if it’s not macaroni it should be called “pasta and cheese” or refer to the specific pasta used
- Seriously? This is the hill you want to die on?

Over the next 10 years would you rather your favourite sports team:
- Has a magical 10 years, always in contention, most years actual champions. However in 2034 it’s discovered that they had fallen foul of Financial Fair Play rules since 2020 and all trophies and wins retroactively cancelled
- Most years in contention, maybe but not certainly actually win the championship once or twice, no fair play hammer in 2034

- I’m an American, and yes, I’m very patriotic.
- I’m an American, and I like my country well enough, but “patriotic” is a bit strong.
- I’m an American, and my country is just the place I live / am from
- I’m an American, and definitely not patriotic.
- I’m (also) a non-American, and yes, I’m very patriotic.
- I’m (also) a non-American, and I like my country well enough, but “patriotic” is a bit strong.

A few years ago, I was having blood drawn for some labs my doctor ordered when I began to feel light-headed. I let the phlebotomist know and she tipped the chair back to let me sit for a bit. She asked another phlebotomist if they had water available for patients. The other phlebotomist told me she could get me some water, but it would have to be in a sterile urine cup. If you had been in my position, would you have accepted the water? (What I did: I accepted the water.)
- Yes
- No, because I wouldn’t want to drink out of a urine cup, even a sterile one.
- No for some other reason.
- something else

You go to a restaurant and order soup. The waiter tells you that for some odd reason, they have no soup bowls available, but they do have a supply of new hospital bedpans. He shows you evidence that the bedpans have never been used, and are completely clean and still in their original factory packaging, and you are convinced that this is all true. Would you eat your soup from a bedpan?
- Yes.
- No, because I wouldn’t eat out of a bedpan, even a clean new one.
- No, for some other reason.
- Something else.

He shows you evidence that although the bedpans have been used they have been washed and sterilsed so many times since that there is zero chance of any fecal matter remaining and you are convinced that this is all true.

You walk into a national coffee shop chain and order a coffee. It comes in a plain white insulated paper cup with “Urine Cup” printed on the side. You look around and notice all the cups are the same. The chain is not named “Urine Cup.” The staff has no explanation. Being a coffee shop, there’s zero reason for any cup to ever have been used as a receptacle for urine.
Do you still drink from it?

Regarding airplane “classes,” I’ve always hated the euphemisms.
- The names (First, Premium Economy / Business, Economy / Coach) are fine
- They should be honest and call them First, Second, Third
- The names are arbitrary: I don’t care if they call them Wizzle, Hopperbopper, and Fangle, so long as I know what I’m getting
- I have a different opinion about names not listed above and / or below
- All planes should be classless: same seating and service for everyone
