As a kid, I had a small dictionary, so I checked whether "gullible" was in it in order to mess with my little sister. It wasn't there, but I still got in trouble when my mom overheard me telling my sister, "Did you know gullible is not in this dictionary?"
I was miffed because I was telling the truth.
It's eth, actually, not thorn.
I had thought that eth was used in Old English for the voiced "th" and thorn for the unvoiced "th", but Wikipedia says they were used interchangeably for both sounds.
You're right otherwise. Thorn was not available on printing presses because they were being made in countries that didn't use the letter, which is why the letter Y was used instead until "th" became more common.
humans just put certain expectations into the word.
... which is entirely the way words work to convey ideas. If a word is being used to mean something other than the audience understands it to mean, communication has failed.
By the common definition, it's not "intelligence". If some specialized definition is being used, then that needs to be established and generally agreed upon.
The cream would rehydrate them.
I have it on pretty good authority that everyone
That's where your comment went wrong. Just about everything that anyone claims "everyone" does is false. Maybe "lots of people," "most people," or even "by far, most people" do a thing, but literally "everyone"? BS.
I don't like looking at breasts, and I have absolutely no interest in them.

It doesn't cost anything to copyright something. You just automatically own the copyright to something you create.

Well, if Musk said it, it must be true. /s
"Thong" can mean a type of sandal, also known as flip-flops, but it's also the name of a type of underwear or swimsuit bottom that's basically a string in the back.
I grew up calling flip flops "thongs", but as I got older, people were almost exclusively using that term for the underwear, so I switched terms to avoid confusion.

That depends on how you define breasts. From Wikipedia:
The platypus' mammary glands lack teats, with milk released through pores in the skin. The milk pools in grooves on the mother's abdomen, allowing the young to lap it up.
Because eating less doesn't require any effort.
Eating less takes a lot of effort for me because if I eat until I feel reasonably full, it's actually too much food, and I gain weight. If I'm maintaining my weight, then I'm constantly hungry. If I'm losing weight, I feel like I'm starving.
I used to be pretty thin, even slightly underweight. Then I went on a medicine for a few months, and it completely ruined my appetite. I'm currently on a medicine for something unrelated that happens to curb my appetite, and it's the only reason I'm not severely overweight.
Dude.
He has a pocket in his cape. It's where he keeps his Clark clothes, shoes, and glasses when he's Superman - super-compressed first, of course.
