I don't care about political correctness, but I think most of society has accepted how dumb it is to refer to First Nations as 'Indian'. They live on opposite sides of the planet, it's just common sense to call them different things.

The First Nations name is also stupid. Wouldn't the first nations be Mesopotamia, Indus Valley, and Egypt? What is wrong with Native American or American Indian?

I thought there was already a discussion here pointing out that that's got to be the worst definition of nihilism ever. Maybe QM used the same clue on a different quiz or else the discussion was deleted. Positively cringe worthy.

Yes, I'm sure to have made a comment about that somewhere too. I don't like that definition either. Nihilism is beyond that, it's a destructive philosophy.

I'd say the counterpart of a proton is an electron since they have opposite charge. I know the quiz is for words that start with N so that drives your mind towards neutron, but I don't think the clue is accurate.
Arp2600

Level 86
Jul 2, 2018
I may be wrong, but I think that a counterpart is not necessarily an opposite. Maybe it could be specified that it's the counterpart in the nucleus?
Dimby

Level 77

For every proton there’s an electron. I think that’s pretty much the exact definition of a counterpart. The neutron clue definitely should be about a particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom.

My first guess for "inert gazeous element" was nitrogen. Of course, it's not 100% inert, and it's a diatomic molecule, but it matches the definition fairly. Maybe it would be better to ask for a noble gas?

Surely "Woman's sheer stocking" would be better wording? (What is a "sheer woman", exactly?!) Or even just "sheer stocking" or - even better - "hosiery", seeing as nylon could refer to tights rather than specifically stockings.

I always get briefly stumped by novel vs novella, since "novel" is simply the English translation of the Italian word "novella" even though as a literary term "novel" refers to a "romanzo" in Italian...
