We are a species that calls itself a youman. The fairer sex is called wombman. The place we inhabit we call earth after the ground we walk on. Most of you live in a country that calls itself Us.
Simplicity, I can dig that 
Can you find more of these Captain Obvious words?

Demonstrably not so, good sir. I began my reply in full confidence that I could both add something and be amusing. My failure should demonstrate at least the potential futility of presumption upon others for one's own lulz.

I would think any member of the establishment that owns and runs this place at a grass roots level should be allowed to bend the rules a little. Seems only fair if you put so much work into making this place available for the masses that find their home away from home here.
I find the world is one big 'ol fucking paradox myself. So many lines of questioning and deep, introspective thought seem to lead to this conclusion. I have experienced it a few times, but spiritual masters I have met seem to see it everywhere.
Seems important to be able to laugh at the absurdity of it all if one is to gain true inner peace IMO.

That not on topic enough for you?

The most common words that a language uses are the shortest and simplest which says something about the words we use every day. Most words used for describing important things are as a result simple and human centric.
Such as calling the earth "the world," or calling the rock orbiting the earth "the moon," or calling ourselves "civilized." How would we know what civilized looks like if we've only ever seen ourselves? Also the use of the word "life" in "pro-life" or "life is unfair" etc. which always refers specifically to human life despite the word itself being generic.
The fact that we hold the term "we the people" in such high regard is another good example of this. As if no other people exist.
German is waaaay better for this kind of thing though. Everything in German is like a compound of multiple simpler words.

Lets see...monkeys love playing with keys, also monks are smart, monkeys are smart for wild animals.
People pee everyday: PEE-pole.
Racecar is the same spelling backwards. But why?
Look has two "oo" like eyes or binoculars, and lol looks like a person throwing their arms up in joy.
Or someone scared to get eaten by a shark. Help! lol |\
Shark rhymes with Nark, both are very bad trouble.
Bang rhymes with wang, and both are directly related....
I think i see it now Who-Man.

They actually specifically chose the name "he-man" because it was so completely and utterly generic. They wanted kids to buy it and play with it no matter what the kids were into or liked (sci fi, fantasy, etc.), so they designed it to be as generic as possible.
