    This is so dumb but I love it so much. I’m gonna create another account just to upvote this brilliant idiocy.

    The fact it’s not called “antomolgoy” is a tragically wasted opportunity.

    I’m totally here for the sentiment, but I think it’s just because the average person might not know one or the other of these words. They’re both pretty specific in their usage.
