minus-squareDarkNightoftheSoullinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down2·edit-29 months agoYou don’t have to agree with me that saying Niacin is the substance found in Five Hour Energy commonly called by laypersons simply “Vitamin B,” You might disagree with my sentiment that this isn’t an academic paper or a research laboratory but rather popsci communication and the context and content of the article makes it impossible to mistake which “Vitamin B” I am referring to (It’s practically the first thing to read for fuck’s sake). This doesn’t mean you get to insult me for expressing my opinion. Especially ironic to dismiss my opinion as not-an-opinion when you’re trying to be supportive of pedantry.
