To correct someone from saying "so" too much:

"Sew buttons on ice cream"

"Hey" too much:

"Hay is for horses"

"Well" too much:

"Well, well, well - that's three holes in the ground"

Micromanage much?!?!

This was clearly made by a mosquito. So biased.

Dolphin died March 2022, then the publisher received the manuscript in June 2023. Then review took until 10 April 2024.

More generally, they weren't doing this in response to the recent outbreak, it was sort of a coincidence that the disease gained media attention at the same time of this paper's publication. Academic researchers are expected to publish around 2 papers a year, and each paper tends to take a couple years.

tl;dr: it's an academic study, not the dolphin CDC. blame the publishers and universities, not the researchers.

I'm guessing, but it's probably because they are testing for bird flu on a long-dead dolphin via necropsy?

Surprised no one mentioned this, but carry-on bags are no longer free for all - only free for the first ones in line.

Have you tried not using it to wash your dog?

Yep! Measles is sooooo contagious and takes a week or two to show symptoms.

50+ kids already have it now.
