HAHA found this superrrr interesting thing from fanfiction.net! xD (FINE-- yesyes i know, not doing work again and digressing on the computer since morning OMG i really suck ;D)

There is no egg in eggplant; neither is there ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England, or french-fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. Quicksand works slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce, and hammers don't ham?

If it is louse/lice and mouse/mice, why can't you eat your rice one rouse at a time? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, two geese. So one moose, 2 meese? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd or an end?

If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what language do we ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are the opposite? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which an alarm goes off by going on.

Why do we drive on a parkway and park in a driveway?
Why is flammable a synonym for inflammable, but incapable is the opposite of capable?
