People always out here yelling "reported" when I'm like "so who the fuck was the first to ported?"

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

The "port" in "report" comes from the meaning "to carry," so I guess the first person to ever receive information that they intended to relay to someone else was the first to port.

Other comment is amusing, but to my understanding, the actual answer is that the prefix "re-" has different connotations in the original Latin. Over time, it got streamlined in English into just meaning "again," but originally, it carried the connotation of returning, of turning back. You can kinda see how repeating an action could be viewed as similar in concept to the concept of turning back (for instance, if you need to redo something, you need to turn back and start over).

So to port means to carry something somewhere, and to report means to carry something back, like a scout returning to base with information.

Except in this case, we're the scouts, the mods are the base, and the information is Alabaman egg

Ah, okay. Well, now I'm curious what rule you were joking was being violated.

[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

for supposedly showing the death of an embryo (in Alabama).

Just to be clear, I didn't report anything. I was just making a joke that didn't go over well.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

Okay, now I got it. There was too little info for me to make the connection. "Reported for murder" or something like that, I would have figured out.
