> The term "ice cream" is pretty well regulated in the US. Really shows where our priorities are as Americans. Most natural food products are regulated in the US [0]. Ice cream is …

It’s also very over-designed; there are multiple different styles for headings, subheadings, pull quotes, section headings, etc etc. All with their own colors, font faces, font siz…

Any particular reason that “Andiamo” is so popular? It’s apparently Italian for “let’s go” but why is in the top 10? Is there some reference I’m missing?

The icons for the different shapes don’t really make a lot of sense. It’s not really obvious how some of them work and many are quite unlike the actual pattern (which you have to s…

Because the start of the movie is where the hero does the things that lead to their victory

Because the author is making a reference to a song with the title "Colorblind", as explained in the footnote: > The post title comes from “Colorblind” by Super Furry Animals, a B-s…

Nothing in that article suggests that the actual stones come from Europe. It seems like it would be rather impractical to import that much heavy material. This report [0] from the …
