The word ‘stan’ comes from the Eminem song "Stan," which is about one of his obsessed fans.

What if Eminem named the fan ‘Dennis’? 

We could be saying, “I dennis Beyonce.”

‘February’ is the ‘Wednesday’ of months.
At least the hardest month to spell is also the shortest.

'Gaslight' comes from a play and movie of the same name in which a man attempts to trick his wife into believing that she is going insane.

We promise we're telling the truth.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Today is National Thesaurus Day.

Personally, we find these made-up holidays contemptible, abhorrent, nauseating, repugnant, and unpalatable.

"You and I" or "You and me"?

Which one is right?

Both…depending on whether ‘I/me’ is the subject or the object.

-"You and I are going to the store." (subject)

-"This is for you and me." (object)

'Escalate,' as in "tensions escalate," comes from the word 'escalator.'

It first appeared in print in 1944.

'Escalator' originated as a trademarked term for the Otis Elevator Company's moving staircase and was demonstrated at the Paris Exposition in 1900.

‘Cleave’ can refer to splitting something apart.

‘Cleave’ can also refer to the uniting of two things.

…what?

A word that is also its own opposite is called a ‘contronym.’

‘Soup’ was a slang term for drugs that were injected into a horse to make it run faster.

A racehorse that was on PEDs was said to be ‘souped up.’

We now use the term to refer to anything that is enhanced.
