    Etymology. This is silly. Are you not an animal?

    Me either. I am a rather fungi.

    So silly: do you refer to the palms of your feet? Do you refer to the back paws of a dog? Just dumb.

    And you used effectively ineffectively.

    Like, what effect are you affecting? You realize the difference between nouns and verbs, right? Because we are discussing nouns.

    Just, I don’t know, etymology.

    Oh, you sky-intists. You won the smart award for this.

    And did you read it? You rub the palm.

    (slow clap using my paws…)

    Ok, so you know how you have features on your palm that stand out? Like the base of your fingers, the base of your thumb, and the opposing side: That IS your paw.

        Are you from another world? You don’t know where your paws are? Jesus on a cracker, you are so damn ignorant.

        Do I need to explain that you also have thighs? Not just chickens have them.

        Seriously, what the hell do you use for grip? Your paws. This is insane.

        Google grip with your paws. OMG, you are going to get your goddamn mind blown.

        I know you haven’t worked construction, but you probably should wear a hard hat just in case.

        Really cannot fathom why in the world I am having to explain something so fundamental.
