MonkeMischief, Why did my brain automatically add: 🎶"…From your roommate back in Boulder we ain’t ever getting older…" 🎶
caseyweederman, Sounds like a Mountain Goats song
illectrility, I came here to say that opossum is spelt with an o. I was wrong, it’s optional
LordAmplifier, Since when did they change it to opossum? When I was comin’ up it was just possum. Opossum makes it sound like he’s Irish or something. Why do they gotta go changing everything?
mxcory, Opossum (North America) and Possum (Australia) are two different animals.
However if you are in the US and say “possum” people will know which animal you are most likely talking about.
There is nothing wrong with saying possum instead of opossum in general conversation though.
Quick search says they have had their name since early 1600s.
LordAmplifier, That’s true, and I don’t disagree, but I was trying to make a reference to this Breaking Bad scene. I still appreciate the random biology lesson <3
mxcory, Gotcha, I have hardly watched Breaking Bad, so that is why I missed the reference.
