Having an opinion about something doesn’t necessarily mean you’re knowledgable on the subject. Makes sense, right? Well, not everyone seems to agree. This person happens to have a master’s in biostatistics and did their research survey methodology for a national health survey. Someone else tried explaining to them that are surveys are nonsense and that they shouldn’t be used in scientific research. Essentially, that person didn’t understand what representative samples are. They were also convinced that people who take surveys always lie for no reason and never tell the truth. The professional let the other guy go on being wrong after a couple of comments back and forth. They were bored of arguing by that point.

This person happened to overhear their Italian-American coworker explain to another coworker that Tiramisu is Japanese. He has a rather lengthy explanation, too. According to him, the Japanese invented it. That’s the reason it has the phonetic structure it does. In fact, he even pronounced it with a Japanese accent. However, he said the French perfected it, creating the modern version people are familiar with. The person who overheard the entire thing also happens to be Italian-American. Tiramisu is Italian for “pick me up”. This guy just didn’t have the heart to correct the coworker in front of the other coworker.
