In Marcus’ ear weeknights on ZB, but most of my feed will be Wordle scores and pictures of my cats. He/him. I'm not the Dan Goodwin who climbs buildings. linktr.ee/danfromnz

I moonlight two days a week as a high school teacher aide, mainly in maths and science classes, so they're going to get an earful of this tomorrow all day long.

Poor souls.

Oh goody - you're letting me tell a talkback audience there are 'alternative truths'...

Appreciate you immensely. Thanks for humouring me.

But if the question was subtly rephrased to something like, "Describe the car's journey around the roundabout" you still wouldn't say "it went 450 degrees around the roundabout", would you?

Seeing as you're a LITERAL DOCTOR and have taken the time to reply...

How do you describe the movement a car makes around the roundabout, without *incorrectly* using 'degrees'?

A diagram of a roundabout. A red line shows a sneaky "all the way around to turn left" path.

A diagram of a roundabout. A red line shows a sneaky "all the way around to turn left" path.

Settle this for me (and talkback): If a driver follows the red path around a roundabout, have they made a 270Β° turn, or a 450Β° turn?

Please explain your reasoning.

Rode passenger in a friend’s car this morning. Did something nasty to my shoulder while twisting and reaching across my body to get my seatbelt and put it on.

Yes, I’m 37, why so you ask?

There should be an added option to have the cat meow at all hours of the night until you get up and feed them crunchers so it REALLY feels like home.

100% here for this idea.
