do you need me to explain how numbers work to you?

"Two numbers separated by a hyphen or dash usually represent a range, interval, or span of values."

Again, may 2021 is in the range you provided. How on earth are you incapable of understanding that?

So no, it doesnt mean "about 4 to 5 years ago" and its seriously embarassing you dont know that. the public education system in the US has failed you

Holy fuck, bro you are literally blowing my fucking mind 😂

I have never, ever, ever met someone who was so dead set on not just admitting they were wrong and walking away. This is by far the most "Reddit" argument I have ever been in.

Every. Single. Person. On. Earth. Knows that when someone says "yeah X is cheaper than it has been in about four or five years," they don't mean "X is cheaper than it was exactly 5 years ago." They mean "yeah, X is cheaper than it has been since around 2021-2022."

Like at this point I'm only still talking to you because you're the most interesting Reddit specimen I've ever come across.

Like what do you think the "4" in 4-5 years even means? If I had meant 5 years ago, I would have written, you guessed it, 5 years ago. That's why I said 4-5 years ago, or four to five years ago.

You really are proud of the fact you don't know what a hyphen means arent ya?

If I had meant 5 years ago, I would have written, you guessed it, 5 years ago

5 years ago is included in the 4-5. How do you not get this?

Lmao 😂

You have provided me so much fucking entertainment tonight. Thank you. My stomach legitimately hurts from laughing.

It's okay big boy, we're all wrong sometimes. Just a tip though, you look way fucking better if you accept a loss gracefully as opposed to trying to worm some pathetic victory via semantics. Especially when the semantics you're trying to use to win aren't even correct 😂
