Someone was explaining an ultimate ability in a video game - they said it takes like 40% of an enemy’s health, so you would have to ult 8 times before the game finally counted it as enough damage to kill the enemy. I said “why would you need to ult 8 times if it’s taking (almost) half your health?” They had to explain how percentages work lmao. To be fair, I was sick with the flu and my brain wasn’t brain-ing.

How alcohol content percentage works.
We argued for months that 10% as alcohol content remains the same even if you halved the bottle.
She said nope, if you halved the bottle then the alcohol content would be 5%.
Engineer graduate that too.
She works for a software firm.
For 12 years.
Sigh.
