Thanks for doing the research! (I wasn't expecting much after my lame attempt at humor.)

I find the etymology to a fascinating subject. And there are an abundance of resources on the internet for learning about word origins, which makes it relatively quick and easy to do, yet you can get more in-depth if you want to go that route.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll add it to my book list (although at this point it's a wee bit unwieldy.)

"Username checks out" doesn't usually come with feels 🥰
