I recently saw a bumper sticker with someone in a white powdered wig on it and the words 'bigwig'. And went 'oh. Is that where bigwigs came from? When muckity mucks wore wigs?"
Coming in like a week and a half late to say: I was in late high school when I realized that ad was short for advertisement. I just never thought about it, they were two different words that meant roughly the same thing and I never mentally held them up next to each other before. I was mercilessly mocked for a decade.
Mori: I am apparently Old because I know the CC on email stands for carbon copy, and have actually used carbon paper. (Our old man gave Tiny Us a sheet to trace Care Bears with.)
