Twin Tangent 16: Why is it called...
from Or So They Say ... · host orsotheysay
We've talked colloquialisms before, we've talked etymology, and this is still in that umbrella, but sometimes there are names for things that just don't make any sense, but we never think to question it, until now. Leave it to the twins that think too hard about everything to break down the origins of everyday objects and items. Some of them are a little more straight forward than others, and some of them are just gross. But all of them are at least mildly interesting.
