The binturong is an incredibly striking creature which I only learned of recently. Upon seeing it, I wondered if it was real, for it has been so long since I saw an animal that 1) I was previously unaware of and 2) looked so different from all animals I've known before. The binturong is a tree-dwelling mammal native to Southeast Asia, where some communities use it to make 'kopi luwak', a bowel-centric coffee typically made with the assistance of a civet. It is said the binturong smells like popcorn. And it is also said my heart smells like popcorn.

This isn't a physics problem, it's a problem of knowing what a spring scale is and how it functions.

My bathroom scale reads 300 pounds, which means I weigh 150 and the floor supplies the equal and opposite 150.

This is really more indicative most people do not understand spring scale's than physics.

This reminds me of how I got a wword problem related to golf wrong because I didn't know how golf scoring worked.

This isn’t a physics problem, I think a lot of people just don’t know how spring scales work.
