- Green
Isn't it weird how green apples are lime green, and limes are green apple? A green apple lollipop looks like a lime on a stick, and a lime green car looks like a giant Granny Smith. Also, if you Google "forest," you see a lot of light green tones, not the dark shade of "forest green." I wonder what other things we get wrong in our daily lives that we don't even realize.

- Extraordinary Claims
They say "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." I disagree. I think many extraordinary claims in math and science have very simple evidence. The fact that e^(i*pi) + 1 is equal to 0 (where i is the square root of -1, e is about 2.7, and pi is about 3.14) is quite extraordinary, but the proof is rather straightforward. I think the existence of extraordinary claims with less than extraordinary evidence makes the extraordinary claims all the more extraordinary.

- Algebra
If P and Q are statements, then the statement "P and Q" is true if both P and Q are true and false otherwise. The statement "P or Q" is true in all cases except when both P and Q are false. An implication is a statement of the form "P implies Q" or "if P, then Q" (written symbolically as P -> Q). An implication is false if P is true and Q is false; it is true in all other cases.

- Good Day, Sir!
Wrong, sir. Wrong. Under Section 37B of the contract signed by him, it states quite clearly that all offers shall become null and void if, and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy, "I, the undersigned, shall forefeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein and herein contained" et cetera, et cetera, "fax mentis incendium gloriae cultum" et cetera, et cetera, "memo bis punitor delicatum." It's all there, black and white, clear as crystal.

- Stop Correcting Errors
Why do you insist on correcting my errors and then giving me a penalty? I will correct my errors myself, thank you very much. Like, how is that even a good feature? Someone had to take the time to program when to correct errors and how much penalty to give them. Seems like a lot of work for such a useless feature.
