Quentin Tarantism

Tarantism... is that a real phenomenon? I can't imagine there'd be a word for it if it wasn't a real thing, or people at least believed it was a real thing due to mass panic. But seriously, what the fuck?

It is! It has the same etymology as the Italian dances called "tarantelle".

Yes, I was right about it being mass hysteria, but it's interesting nonetheless

I love these comics, I always know at least one of the words (and therefore get to feel smart), and learn some new ones with cute illustrations.

Every time I try to use my Samsung swipe keyboard to type "good morning" it always auto corrects to "good moribund".

Good to know it's a real world.
