who the gently caress thinks chocolate milk comes from brown cows lmao

that keeps coming up in dumb slow news day stories every few years as wacky evidence that people are morons and i'm pretty sure they're either phrasing the question weird or people are answering that of course it comes from brown cows because like, most cows are brown, so all milk comes from brown cows.

e: i finally went and looked it up and yeah i called it lol

https://theconversation.com/take-that-chocolate-milk-survey-with-a-grain-of-salt-80178

quote:

An NPR interview with Jean Ragalie-Carr, president of the National Dairy Council, is the closest we can get to the actual wording of potential responses: “there was brown cows, or black-and-white cows, or they didn’t know.” But as Glendora Meikle of the Columbia Journalism Review points out, we don’t know if those were the only options presented to respondents.

This matters. For instance, if respondents associate some color cows with dairy production and other color cows with beef production, it’s easy to see how people could become confused. If this is the case, they’re not confused about where chocolate milk comes from, but about the difference between dairy cows and beef cows.

e2: lol

quote:

We reached out to Lisa McComb, the senior vice president of communications for Dairy Management, Inc., about the survey. She confirmed that it’s not publicly available. “The purpose of the survey was to gauge some interesting and fun facts about consumers’ perceptions of dairy, not a scientific or academic study intended to be published,” she told us.

they totally just made up the numbers didn't they

Bareback Rodeo posted:

I've only been mugged once. It's kind of a bad story to tell people. The back story is that I'm usually really timid and when I went to high school I used to carry a knife around to make myself feel tough.

Anyway, walking home from school one day this older guy with long grey hair asked me if I had some money for the bus, so I took out my wallet and he punched me in the head. Long story short I pulled the knife out of my pocket and slashed him across the face. It was loving scary as poo poo and I didn't know what to do. He was keeled over on the ground screaming about his eye, so I just threw the bus money at him and said "good luck" or some poo poo and just ran as fast as I could.

anyway here's his collected works from the helldump goldmine

he shows up in there a few pages in btw

Of course not. They were only just able to update their script generator with words like "podcast" from 2010, after all.

It will take another 10 years before they can make a murder mystery where the protagonist is an eccentric youtuber who's consulting with the police.

Mayor London Breed and other prominent elected officials who have come out against Prop. C largely echo those criticisms. In a coordinated effort this month, Breed, state Sen. Scott Weiner and Assemblyman David Chiu released statements saying that while they support the measure’s goals, they would be voting no.

Breed said the “risk that concerns me the most” is the potential for companies impacted by the tax to move their operations and jobs elsewhere.

“We cannot afford to lose even more jobs for middle-class San Franciscans, the jobs in retail, manufacturing and services that are most likely to flee the city under Proposition C,” she said.

The businesses subject to the tax make up 15 to 20 percent of the city’s job base and already pay around 40 percent of its business taxes, according to a report on Prop. C from the city’s chief economist.
