Things that don't make sense!

I just found out that peanuts aren't nuts at all--they're "pods". Thanks, biology, for ruining everything! I mean, come on! It says "nut" right in the name! But I guess it's too late to change it. "Peapod" would be pretty confusing. I wish I could go on thinking that a peaNUT is an actual NUT but I can't. Now that my eyes have been opened, I cannot go back. *sigh*
