Obviously people are being price gouged, but just saying "record profits" without really being able to explain it feels like I'm just repeating what I've heard people say and not speaking on an informed level. What does it actually mean? Like before or after production and transportation costs? Before or after taxes? Raw product yeild? Something else?

What is the most WRONG thing a teacher, professor, or school book told you?

    When I was 14 in high school health class, we were told there was a difference between "semen" and "sperm." Wearing a condom stopped the "sperm" but not the "semen," which was where HIV lived. Then the teacher brought out chicken wire, baseballs, and a fire extinguisher to drive the point home.

    Yeah, evangelical times were crazy back then where I grew up.

    I mean to be fair, we used to get those stupid hug emojis from our scheduler when she had to "apologetically" deny a day of PTO that was dead smack in the middle of a stretch of requested days off for a vacation. That emoji really just became a symbol of hatred in our department. 🤗🤮
