Regardless of material, I hate the mentality of replacing your wardrobe every year. It’s just so wasteful.

Tanning beds also used to be a HUGE thing. The people that really frequently went to get a tan have much more leathery skin.

The $35k may have been referring to the sign on bonus. I don’t know if sign on has gotten that high, but it was the first thing I thought of.

Better idea: take that ice cream, put it in a mug and pour a shot of espresso over it. Bam, you’ve got an affogato (an Italian dessert drink).

Again, that’s incorrect. Pounds (Lbs) are the US measurement for mass. Feel free to provide a source to the contrary. I specified pounds mass vs pounds force because in an engineering space, it’s worthwhile to be specific, but the Pound (lb) is all that is specified in any documentation as the unit for mass in the US system.

That’s incorrect. They are, in engineering contexts, referred to as pounds mass (lbm) or pounds force (lbf) respectively. The US Customary Unit for mass is the pound (lb) (aka pound mass, lbm)

It’s just a pun. They’re both units of mass, hence there would be mass confusion.

It doesn’t work with the pun, but the more confusing part for people would probably be the fact that pounds are used for both mass and force, but in SI, the units are different (kilograms for mass vs newtons for force), though that doesn’t really matter for most people.
