@depthsofwiki It gets weirder - the Latin "patior" means "to suffer" (where we get the "Passion of Christ"), Spanish missionaries who came across the passionfruit in South America named the plant's flower "passiflora" as its five stems reminded them of Jesus' five crucifixion wounds

@depthsofwiki Sorry everyone, pog never meant "play of the game" the emote was named that because gootecks was in a video where he played with POGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
