Homophobia means they hate gay people.

You mean hypochondriac.

[–] joby 90 points 5 months ago (3 children)

No, that's a person who always believes they're sick. You're thinking of hemophiliac.

[–] [email protected] 64 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No thats when someone's blood doesnt clot and they bleed to death from a paper cut.

You're thinking of homosapiens.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No that's humans. You're thinking of homeostasis.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that's self-regulating body temperature. You're thinking of herpetology.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that’s the study of amphibians and reptiles. You’re thinking of horticulture

[–] [email protected] 28 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that's the art and science of raising plants. You're thinking of hors d'oeuvres.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that's European cuisine. You're thinking of homesickness

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

No. That's being far from home and missing it. I believe you meant homeopathy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, that's a medical pseudoscience. You're thinking of heliosphere

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

you're mistaken, since that term refers to the outermost atmospheric layer of the Sun. the term you might want to use here is "histogram".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I believe your statement might contain a slight imprecision, as a histogram is a bar graph displaying the frequency distribution of some value. Did you perhaps mean to say "homogram"?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

It seems like we ran into a misunderstanding, because a homogram is a type of poem. I believe the term you were looking for is haplotype.

This that thing where if you want the right answer you just post the wrong answer on the Internet.

It's called Ohms Law

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Nah, ohm's law is one of the fundamentals of electrical theory. V = I R

voltage = current x resistance

You're thinking of Murphy's law.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

No this is that thing from redd... Wait how did you make me do that??

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago (2 children)

It's heterochromia guys, jeeze.

I use Arch, btw

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

No, that's hating the monochrome straight people flag
