Language can sure be a lot of fun.
CONFUSING WORDS The meaning of words can be quite confusing, And here’s the best example that I’ve found. Why are hemorrhoids called hemorrhoids, And asteroids called asteroids? Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Michael D. Schafer © April 18, 2018

Well, I never looked at them that way before
That is, if I ever looked at them.
You know what I mean. I think.

It does not matter what they call them, when you got them and they hurt , I would say a good name for them would be

"PAINEROIDS" or somethin' close to that. Nice write Michael,

Thank you for a laugh on this dreary day. The word "dreary" I like. It fits the feeling. Now you have me analyzing words.
