Weird, all my milk pans are 16 inches wide.

Edit: TIL what a milk pan is. A small sauce pot with a little spout on the edge, for heating milk. Still a weird comparison.

I think there was a larger one in Florida elected as governor.

Americans will use anything but the metric system to measure things.

Milk pan, abbreviated "mp" is part of the metric system, hence not being taught to most Americans.

Ten times smaller are individual egg pans, or "ep".

Ten times larger you've got pizza pan, aka "pp".

Politics is everything, and since the fascists are trying to take over they'll turn absolutely every possible opportunity into culture war bs instead of staying the hell out of people's lives, and spending taxes on those who pay them.

Reports of pie plate sized snowflakes from soldiers waiting out a storm in 1887 probably included a large measure of alcohol and bullshit.

I have no idea what you were doing Googling "world's largest snowflake", but I appreciate the tenacity, OP.

You can see bigger ones at your local liberal arts college all year round

It's a reference to DeSantis receiving recently a snowflake art piece where every spike of it was a fairly hard to read text fascist that he took a picture with.
