The teacher was pretty cool, so I feel like she would have let us try it, but I’ve never met a science teacher who doesn’t have a viscerally negative reaction to the idea of eating something made in a lab. Honestly, the alcohol was probably an excuse

Root beer used to be commonly mildly alcoholic (.5-1%). We made traditional root beer in my AP bio class in high school, and weren’t allowed to drink it because of the alcohol

I’m an immigrant in Germany who thought that was just a normal word for spiked hot cocoa 😬

Yeah, it’s a generally unpleasant accusation that doesn’t really apply here, like calling a random infantryman a hitman, because they were paid to shoot people.

Except, even in light of current events, most people still consider shooting people to be worse than having sex with them.

Well of course she doesn’t have one, she dropped out

That’s such an unpleasant euphemism. Better than gash (and leagues more polite), but not much.

She never took a dick, they all stayed attached. Rather, she engaged in coitus.

See how silly that sounds?

In Germany you can eventually get in trouble for not paying it, but afaik that’s not the case in the UK.

The BBC is weirdly aggressive about trying to get people to pay for their TV usage, but they’re also pretty impotent. They’ll try to come into your house to see if you have a TV set, at which point you’re probably obligated to pay for the license. You don’t have to let them in, though, so all they can really do is pester you

Yes. Minus the tittle, but that’s reasonable imo
