Reply to comment by Consider2SidesPeace in TIL about the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) - a US government agency maintaining a reference catalogue of almost any item known; from peanut butter to New Jersey waste water samples. And everything is for sale. by samgarita

If you’re responding directly to the OP then why are you just spouting what you know they already saw in the video?

Cause the rest of us prolly didn't see the video. I sure didn't. But I mean, I would. Tho its a lil odd when you make a comment and get a reply for the benefit of others, and not really a response to yourself. This just kinda seems like the post version of that, lol.

YT - Veritasium chan link

Sorry if I offended anybody I was just being lazy. LOLz, you get older in the tooth and it's hard to remember what rabbit holes you've been down. I recommend the Veritassium channel if anyone's interested in weird science bits. (no affiliation just a fan)

Dug up the link I referred if anyone's interested. There's even a reference they sell for the common diet. Weird but interesting stuff. Bests~

Hey I feel ya, plus sometimes you just might not realize how you come across. Mix that with being annoyed or something and it's easy to come across the wrong way on reddit. Though I gotta be honest, when I saw your comment I didn't think it was gonna even be downvoted lol, I certainly didn't downvote you. Thanks for the link!

The other day I did something kinda like that, but worse actually and didn't realize in the moment I was actually being an ass. Shit happens. That's what my mom always told me, haha.

I am glad when people add info in the comments in a place called Today I Learned, because I am actually here to learn things.

How about you?
