Tangents and secants are how we learn.

And if we don't stop to smell the roses, how will we remember how good roses smell?

So let's not defenestrate curiosity wherever it leads with the culture of "no," because you're not a moderator. So don't pretend to be the king who decides what is permitted and forbidden to be discussed; that's contrary to an open and free society.

There's nothing wrong with "viruses" or "octopuses." Please read and understand that "faux Latin" means these tweaked "smarty" words aren't even Latin half of the time.
