once again, we’re delving into another fact that legit blew my entire mind to pieces 🤯
#tdil that the ‘#’ isn’t actually called a ‘hashtag’ 😱 #saywhat
honestly, my brain is actually all over the room!? since when was the # key not called a hashtag!? like, i use them every single day and i didn’t know this! #ivebeenliedto
anyway, it’s actually called an ‘octothorpe’ 🐙 (or an octothorp) … and, sadly, people don’t actually know why it’s called that 😂
there are many theories that the octo part is to do with the eight points on the symbol but no one really knows where the thorpe part came from 🤷🏻♂️
you know, there isn’t much else to say on this 🙈 i just wanted to get the actual fact bit in 😂
peace 👍🏻 #tdil
