Sort of tacos but more like burritos were also consumed.
dammit, we tuesday'd on our monday and ended up grilling sausages on our tuesday!
How magnetic are you now?
I'm stuck to the wife's knee implant, or is she stuck to me?
Joke’s on you, her implant is probably Titanium!
I prefer jousting, myself
Whip it, whip it good

From Wikipedia "Stainless steel[1][2][3]: 276 is a group of ferrous alloys "
Stainless steel is mostly iron and can be magnetic, but it depends on the crystaline structure. Austenitic structures are not. You can actually take a piece of stainless like is on refrigerator, that is not magnetic, and make it magnetic by bending it back and forth, work hardening it by changing the crystalline structure away from the austenitic form.
implants use non-ferrous SS as they need to be MR safe.Captain Pedantic here with a PSA

Since we’re having a pedantic day, ‘Ferrous’ means ‘made of iron’ so you mean ‘austenitic’.

Although some alloys with higher nickel/chrome content are more rust resistant, stainless on it's own will still rust. To make it truly stainless it needs to be passivated, a process that dissolves and removes any iron near the surface of the metal.
