Anyway, y'know what really grinds my gears? Grapefruit. Who the hell thought it was acceptable to just bail out of giving this fruit a name of its own?? Why didn't they give it a proper name? What... did they run out? They ran out of fruit names, is that it? Were the people who name things just tired and didn't feel like doing one more? Were the people who name things sitting around a table in an office thinking up fruit names, and they realized that they missed one, but then it was 5 o'clock on a Friday and they were just done so they said "f*ck it" and just stole another fruit's name? I mean, seriously, what the f*ck?
You can't just steal the name of something else, then add the generic category of thing after it and call it a day. Imagine if we did that with any other fruit! Why not have bananafruit? It's not a banana--it's a completely different fruit! Why not? How about applefruit? Why not do vegetables, too? How 'bout carrotvegetable? It's not a carrot! Cornvegetable! It's not corn! Why stop there? How about beefmeat?! It's not beef! It's actually meat from a rhinoceros! We just call it beefmeat because why the hell not?! Why even stop at food?! Why don't we call dogs catmammals? Sharks could be halibutfish! Penguins could be seagullbirds! Motorcycles could be carvehicles, and airplanes could be helicopteraircraft! Lol, I could go all day.
Grapefruit is total bs. The absolute only way I can think of in which this idiocy occurred is this:
I'm officially starting a petition for grapefruits to get their own name! Or... something. Or not. Whatever, I don't care. I'm done.
