$27,000 does not seem like enough money to endure 27 bee stings simultaneously.
The words of either someone immensely privileged or deathly allergic to bees.
Has enough money to say no == immensely privileged apparently
Yeah, if 27k won’t significantly change your situation you are privileged.
We’re not talking about 27k for one day of work. We’re talking about an acting gig with months of training, rehearsals, costume fittings, make-up, traveling, shooting, reshoots. It’s a full-time job.
I already have a job. I’d prefer to keep doing what I’m doing rather than that gig.
Bro you wouldn’t have to act in Hollywood, you would simply need to get stung by a bee or multiple bees until the total number of stings is 27. Pretty easy money unless you’re allergic.
I’d do this for 10% of that price without hesitation. I’ve been stung my many bees in my life and never got paid for any.
In your mouth though?
That’s a good point. I suppose that depends how many in the mouse and how many on the face.
The 27k this article references is for the bee stings the actor endured. Which more than likely happened over a few takes spread over a day. At an 8 hour work day, he made $3375 an hour that day.
$27 isn’t really a lot considering each bee was supposed to be $1000
American notation - they use comma every three orders of magnitude, and dot for decimal separator. It’s almost as retarded as imperial measurement system, but what can you do.
I’d love to hear what’s objectively ‘wrong’ with this one. They’re arbitrary symbols. If anything, isn’t the decimal more akin to a full stop, while a digit separator is more of a pause?
Yeah, it is objectively bad, because introduces confusion. These systems are supposed to remove ambiguities, not introduce them
If we are being pedantic, technically you should use a space to separate the thousands (e.g. $27 000), as this avoids the ambiguity.
If we ignore that and only focus on comma (,) and period (.) decimal notations, then period for decimals would win out, as the larger majority of the world population use it. So $27,000.00 would be the correct way.
But until the whole world agrees on one, we are stuck with multiple, so you can just rub your two brain cells together and realise that the 3 trailing zeroes probably mean it is in the thousands (along with the rest of the context).
(no shade at the original comment, which was clearly tongue in cheek, idk why it is downvoted lol it was funny)

Exactly. Space doesn’t introduce confusion no matter what sign is used as decimal separator. It’s a such a simple, elegant solution, world would be a better place if people were acrually using it.
Dafuq? It makes way more sense than using a dot for the separator and a comma for the decimals. Commas are literally for separating related ideas in a single sentence. The thousands position is related to/part of the hundreds place in a single number. What’s your crazy logic for using a terminator within a single number representation?

How about using spaces?
