    I love that one. I'm right in thinking it's specifically tap water, right? (As in the water provided by the council, you wouldn't use it for Evian or whatever).

            I fucking love the etymology of animal and food words. My favorite is deer, which is related to the German Tier, and originally meant “animal,” because I imagine early Germanic speakers looking at a deer and thinking “this is it, the quintessential animal.” I get it, honestly.

            Not really early Germanic though, because every other Germanic language kept the meaning of "animal". It's only modern English (since the 1500s) that narrowed it all the way to one specific species (or family of Cervidae).

            My guess would be that the language gained the word "animal" from French and "deer" was pushed from its niche and forced to specialize?

                      It’s a play on the double meaning of moist

                      Moist = damp

                      And

                      Moist = cool

                        I dunno, man. I've heard it being referred to as "aqua-cola". I've also heard it's incredibly addictive, which makes sense because not a lot of time has to pass at all before I start to crave more of it. It's practically impossible to resist.

                        Should've never been started on that shit. I dunno why it's so normalised in society...

                                          The modern English word "bear" originally came from a proto-Germanic word meaning one of "brown one" or possibly "wild animal". There was an actual name for bears, but speaking it was taboo in case it caused a bear to appear, so the euphemism eventually replaced the real name.

                                          When I learned this originally, I was taught that the true name was lost to time, but Wikipedia just says it was "arkto" so whatever.
