I'm cleaning screenshots out of a desktop folder and I found this. Two years ago I wouldn't have any idea what this meme was about.

The minimum amount of agricultural land necessary for sustainable food security, with a diversified diet similar to those of North America and Western Europe (hence including meat), is 0.5 of a hectare per person. This does not allow for any land degradation such as soil erosion, and it assumes adequate water supplies. Very few populous countries have more than an average of 0.25 of a hectare. It is realistic to suppose that the absolute minimum of arable land to support one person is a mere 0.07 of a hectare–and this assumes a largely vegetarian diet, no land degradation or water shortages, virtually no post-harvest waste, and farmers who know precisely when and how to plant, fertilize, irrigate, etc. From the FAO (the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (1993)

.5 hectare ~ 1.24 acres

Cops face plenty of perils in the line of duty—and now they can add an unusual one to the list. In a viral video that made the rounds last week, a uniformed Boston police officer spilled out of the City Hall Plaza playground slide face-down and rattled around like a soda vacating a vending machine. He suffered minor injuries, NBC10 Boston reported. But the incident provided some major entertainment.

Its been many years since I bought a can of ~~soda~~ pop from a vending machine but the second I read that I heard the exact sound in my head lol.
