i hate it when people mistake "etymology" with "entomology." like, i know where they coming from but it still bugs me

[21st-century-minutiae]

"Etymology" is the study of word origins and developments. "Entomology" (which sounds very similar especially when not articulated) is the study of insects. Because of the phonetic and lexicographical similarities, which juxtapose greatly with the very different meanings, it is a common joke in the early twenty-first century to replace one for the other.

In this case, the word play is about the common joke. The second part of the joke is a reference to the two different fields. "Know where they are coming from" is a reference to etymology. It usually means "sympathize with" in a metaphorical manner, but in a literal sense it is a reference to something's origin, like etymology.

"Bug" metaphorically means to annoy, but is also an imprecise, informal way to refer to small invertebrates, such as insects which entomologists study.

This would be understood to be a joke. People usually don't have a strong pet peeve about mixing up two specific words. Not when they are both too uncommon to seldom appear in the same context, except in jokes like this.

Game show called "What's Wrong With You" where a bunch of doctors compete to see who can diagnose a mystery illness (chronically ill patient whose lab results keep coming back normal despite obvious symptoms) first and most accurately. Pros:

Doctors paying off their medical loans with prize money

Chronically ill people getting free testing (MRIs, CAT scans, X-Rays, bloodwork, etc) and possibly a diagnosis

You can ding points for 'anxiety' and 'you just need to lose some weight'

Doctors are incentivized to find an answer, not just find something billable

Cons:

HIPAA

Wrong Diagnoses made because they were rushing

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

@flipflibberinflippinghell

Use the Walgreens Brand which is pretty cheap and it does wonders and doesn’t leave me with a white cast. And I’m dark as hell so I hate looking ashy but not all sunscreens are made equally and it’s one of the better ones I’ve used.

[angelic-tokkii-deactivated20220]

Wait cocoa/shea butter and coconut oil don’t protect you from the sun we really do need sunscreen??

[futureblackwakandan-deactivated]

Yea fam. All that “we don’t need sunscreen” shit is a myth. Combine that with the fact that most dermatologists don’t know how to spot skin cancer in Black people and it’s a nasty combination.

[jamaicanblackcastoroil]

Yeah, it’s harder for us to get it but when we do it’s deadly. I know two people who died of skin cancer, both were Black.

[lo-cotidiano]

“While incidence of melanoma is higher in the Caucasian population, a July 2016 study in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology showed it is more deadly in people of color. African American patients were most likely to be diagnosed with melanoma in its later stages than any other group in the study, and they also had the worst prognosis and the lowest overall survival rate.”

Sorry about the link, I’m on mobile. But this is from August 2016, which I know isn’t the most recent but it’s still SUPER IMPORTANT. Y’all please wear sunscreen. With Google it’s even easy to find smaller, Black-owned brands.

[sensei-aishitemasu]

https://blackgirlsunscreen.com/ is Black-owned!

[themardia]

I’m gonna second the rec for Black Girl Sunscreen, it’s affordable, Black owned, and immediately melts into the skin without leaving any gross white cast.

[daysleftofsecondterm]

Please put on sunscreen. Even if it’s not the one recommended, just, put on ANY sunscreen. Any is better than none.

I really think we should stop saying "kid-friendly" and start saying "ad-friendly". We shouldn't indulge these companies and their excuses anymore. I also think that continuing to pretend that this is about "protecting the children" pushes a lot of the blame onto kids and teens, who don't have the political power to push through any of this censorship legislature. Corporations and governments are to blame.

gambling with angels is easy. they can't lie but they have addictive personalities; it's easy to clean them out then make them divulge secrets about the business of heaven to call your bets. my dad used to say "hey, watch this" and summon angels to play poker with him with a sort of bone flute he inherited from his grandpa, and they'd be holding horseshit and still want to call him. i'm talking "raise on a two pair" level bad at it, but they couldn't stop trying to win. my dad taught me all the secret names of God before i was out of grade school and i would use them to curse my enemies so they came down with leprosy. you can cure leprosy these days but it still sucks, especially for a child. but they had it coming for pissing me off

@sadgreysheep

I have finished watching The Parent Trap (1961) and it's a good movie I think. Id like rewatching it though im not sure id go out of my way to if that makes sense. The two lead actresses did a very good job at being twins in a way that wasnt off putting.

Very dated in a lot of subtle (and not subtle) ways that sorta add up and i think thats neat.

Has a vibe to it that I can only describe as anti divorce propaganda. I dont know when no fault divorce became a thing but depending on when that was that probably played a part in that.

Makes me wish there was a movie that was the opposite. Pair of twins doing everything in their power to get their parents divorced because they suck ass as a couple. And the entire time you're rooting for the twins and the audience cheers when the final breakup scene happens amd theres an epilog of the parents signing divorce papers. That probably already exists now that I think about it.

Im sleepy.
