    Taste buds are arranged by flavor in four sections of the tongue. Complete load of horseshit.

    Multiplication tables (I still know them mostly). I have a calculator on damn near every device now.

    Things will always get better <-- this one is the biggest lie of them all

        6 x 6 mothefuckers. Y’all tell me that didn’t immediately form “36” in your brain.

          Nope, went through “(6 × 5) + 6”. Slightly slower, but much more flexible since you can do that with any (base 10 representation of a) number that has a reasonable number of digits.

      Is it so bad to know your multiplication tables? It’s lowk a quality of life thing yknow. imo it’s just a good thing to know so you aren’t entirely reliant on the calculator for an answer.

      I need to use multiplication at work every single day, it’s extremely handy to remember them.
