The Little Things
'Hullo chaps', bellows Richard McBeef, of 'the internet' fame. My boss has managed to make 'shown' into a two syllable word and it drives me round the fucking bend. Tell us about the little things that people around you do, which annoy you for more than they rationally should. Vent your spleen.

What you bought was a terrapin.
Turtles live in the sea, you massive cunt. Why get upset about people calling apes monkeys, and then call a terrapin a turtle? The little thing that has pissed me off today is your post.

"Terrapin" is not a well-defined term
It was invented by people who use the word turtle incorrectly, because they realised that they actually needed a word that meant the wet ones.
I have a musk turtle and two mississippi map turtles. The word "terrapin", you'll notice, does not appear in these species names.

That's because they're American species.
If you're going to claim a turtle is a terrapin just because it comes from the US, then a tortoise is also a turtle.
