  1. I am irrationally angry about inflammable and flammable meaning the same thing. BASED ON THE ETYMOLOGY IT SHOULD BE SPELLED ENFLAMMABLE.

      It’s the same with disgruntled. “Dis” in this case is an intensifier, as opposed to negating. To be gruntled was a thing.

        My spouse just asked me how I’m still alive, given the fact that I didn’t know that inflammable meant flammable.

          I countered with some smart-ass comment about understanding Latin therefore making me superior. idk, it’s almost midnight.
