In Candyman, the scene where Tony Todd had bees flying out of his mouth were REAL BEES. Todd only agreed to do the scene if they pay him $1000 for every bee sting. He earned $27,000 for that scene (files.catbox.moe)

American notation - they use comma every three orders of magnitude, and dot for decimal separator. It's almost as retarded as imperial measurement system, but what can you do.

I'd love to hear what's objectively 'wrong' with this one. They're arbitrary symbols. If anything, isn't the decimal more akin to a full stop, while a digit separator is more of a pause?

Yeah, it is objectively bad, because introduces confusion. These systems are supposed to remove ambiguities, not introduce them

Introduces confusion how? Because it doesn't agree with the arbitrary convention you happened to grow up with? Why is your preferred convention not equally objectively bad? I thought Americans were supposed to be the egotists.
