    Meme aside, is this based on inflation? Some sort of global market?

    If it’s inflation it’s not accurate. 100 2026 dollars is equivalent to 70 2013 dollars (not $50).

    Just trying to fact check the math. I’m fun at parties.

      I think if you include cost of living and cost of purchasing property, the US dollar is easily 50% less effective now than in 2013.

        Meme aside, is this based on shaking a cow? Some sort of bovine agitator?

        If it’s shaking a cow it’s not accurate. Shaking a cow produces only 120ml of foamy milk (not 750ml).
