Scientific Method
C was holding a kitchen magnet up to her ear last night.
"Hmm, what's happening?" I asked.
"I need to find out if my earrings are magnetic," she said. She was having an MRI on her spine today (sciatica, like me).
"Is a kitchen magnet with a smiling bagel on it the best way to determine this?" I asked.
"I really don't want to take these earrings out," she said. "I don't think I've taken them out in decades." She has multiple ear piercings and a little hoop in each one.
She searched Google for 'Can I use a kitchen magnet to determine if my earrings are magnetic?' Second slater, she looked at me. "It looks like I can, according to AI."
"Those last three words are concerning," I said. "And so is the strength of kitchen magnets."
She took them out in the end, and not easily, either.
