The funny thing is that my first thought was along the lines of, "fool, can't you spell?" The second thought was, are these really in Australia, but then I remembered seeing one at the old entrance to the Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida. Which led to the third thought of, I'd better check on things before I shoot myself in the foot.

So, I shot the other foot, apparently! :)

I sometimes forget that those stars are actually massive suns, planets, and other celestial bodies. It’s amazing.

You telling me there weren’t actually like 20 moons all lined up next to each other that night?

Boab means penis in Scotland

"BuT pLaGiArIsM!"

Despite provoking the ire of the reddit professors who want to impose their college plagiarism policy on a reddit comment, I appreciate it. Because I, too, was wondering if they meant baobab.

This kills the asteroid

I'm good, yeah. Actually having a great day. I appreciate your asking. How you doin'?

They called them upside down trees when I was in Tanzania years ago

That was a different timeline. We're stuck in this one now, unless you can come up with enough plutonium for the reactor to get the 1.21 gigawatts of power we're gonna need to fix this.

Thank you!

Unfortunately I live a few hours south of Lone Pine, and I had to go to work after, so I couldn't stop anywhere! But I'll try and remember to stop there if I'm ever in the area again

The idea is that either the seeds floated over to Aus from Madagascar cause they’re mainly found in northern WA. Potentially have also been brought over by African ancestors because the fruit was valued.

Glad to hear it. Thanks for saying so.

Wow! How old is this tree ??

Oh no! Plagiarism! Oh wait, this isn't a college research paper but a comment on reddit. Nevermind, you're over reacting.

Nothing about that absolute unit of a tree ?

Sure, >, or sometimes coming from Reddit, a simple straight vertical line.

But, honest to God, when I say I did some research does that not kind of indicate the same thing?

The plagiarism replies are approaching silly, but you clearly know how to use > to denote a quote...

I don't know where I'd side if this went to r/karmacourt

Whoa, I hope you stopped at the Still Life Cafe on your way in our out? That place was amazing when I lived out that way. Best french food, hands down.

The great deku tree.

That's gorgeous. My new phone wallpaper.

Did you seriously just seethe at someone for having the audacity to look up information, and then share said information?
Are you okay?
