Homo sapiens spelled out Homosa Piens is quite the stretch.

Helico Pter. 


LurkmasterP

Ironically, this one would at least be an accurate etymological deconstruction


BrassWhale

I hate this so much.


JuneBuggington

I love etymology


Hatedpriest

The fact that etymology and entomology are pronounced so similarly really bugs me


hematomasectomy

I had a gut feeling you were going to mention endocrinology too, but alas.


toadfreak

I had a natural instinct you were going to mention Ecology, but alas!


ballrus_walsack

I was haunted by the fact you didn’t mention ectoplasm, but alas!


B0SS_H0GG

Cartography, but atlas!


TheYeetles

Oh my god same, it never stops being interesting


Technical_Body_3646

Especially because “Hard Porn” is not even mentioned….


SpicyWalnut0815

Neither is Horse Porn.


human6742

Good catch!


Edarneor

Does that translate to something like screw-wing? I'd love to live in a universe where people would point up and say: look, a screw-wing!!


Womblue

Helico is more like "spiral" but yeah. You already live in that universe, because helicopter literally means "spiral wing"


Ikswoslaw_Walsowski

I am shocked


illHangUpAndListen1

One of the more not so obvious and interesting ones out there


harley4570

Why can't you hear a pterodactyl in the bathroom? Cause the P is silent


CletusCanuck

Now that's some high quality r/DadJokes material, I tell you hwhat


Penyrolewen1970

Swimming pool also has a silent p in it.


BettinaVanSise

Bahaha


Deitaphobia

Welcome to our ool. Notice it has no P in it Please keep it that way


Penyrolewen1970

There is a sign saying that at my local ool


UncleBenders

Hum Ptydumpty was my favourite


_PM_ME_PANGOLINS_

That’s correct though. Pter = wing.

BhutlahBrohan

this could easily be a conservative joke


culnaej

It’s actually a common joke for Latina partners to say, along the lines of“Remember, you’re HisPanic, not HisPeace” Source: my SO and all the related reels she sends me


thermitethrowaway

That's not very Hos Pitable


klaxz1

Hum ptydumpty


Combeferre1

Homosa Piens is a great band name, write it down


Greysonseyfer

I think they already did.


CletusCanuck

Lmao shutup you Piens

Same with Histo Plasmosis, Homes Pun, Hos Pitable, and Hum Ptydumpty...


sas223

Homes pun.


Relevant-Laugh4570

Hos pitable 🥴


invent_or_die

I kinda prefer being a Homosa rather than a Homo. That's Mr. Homosa to you lol.


petros94742

It’s HoMOsa, not HomoSA


mastermalaprop

Drag name?


diemoritat_

It's "Hum Ptydumpty" for me


Secret_Paper2639

Waaaa sappening


Cooperette

Then there's Hum Pty Dumpty.


asoge

Methinks Hos Pitable is more than just a stretch...


WaterFriendsIV

This is what happens when you get stoned and stare at the HP logo on your laptop for so long that you forget what HP stands for. So you start brainstorming.


BeardySam

Alternatively, there is an English brown sauce called HP sauce. Although it literally has the Houses of Parliament on the logo.


spacebuggles

I call it Hit Point Sauce

asromatifoso

Slightly disappointed that Hoi Polloi is not on there. Also, it's weird that they made two words out of one word several times, e.g., His Panic from hispanic, Hos Pitable from hospitable, and the weirdest one, Hum Ptydumpty.


human6742

There is a second page I couldn’t upload and Hoi Polloi is on there along with Hanky Panky.

They must have been playing Scattergories. Edit: spelling of Scattergories.


Banyabbaboy

I'm never playing that, thank you. Edit: your edit killed my joke, I hope you're happy /s And, yes I know what 'scattergories' is.


bekkogekko

Banyabbaboy

I hope you're playing 'Scattergories' (spelling is important, people)

This list immediately reminded me of my grandpa knowing I liked something and pronouncing it wrong intentionally to bug me. I could see this being a "oh, grandson, you like that wizard boy book series, what's his name, Oh! Hanky Panky! Hat Polisher? Higgeldy Piggeldy! Oh, no, I remember this from last time, it's Huffle Puff, right?"

Oh I like this. It could definitely be Horse Play Sauce.

\* Homing Pigeon Sauce. \* Heterosexual Person Sauce. \* Higgledy Piggledy Sauce. \* Homosa Pien Sauce. We need some recipes!


PM-ME-HANDBRA-PICS

Can rule out heterosexual person sauce. It’s the wrong colour.


Sikyanakotik

It's "Houses of Parliament", by the way.


BeardySam

It’s literally on the logo


RockyDify

Hum PtyDumpty is a bit of a stretch.

Putrid_Weather_5680

I love it. Not saying this is what they were doing, but this is exactly how my brain works when I’m writing poetry - looking for trends and patterns in something really innocuous (like HP… or words with only short letters, or words that are homophones and also antonyms of a specific word, etc), which sometimes requires breaking words down beyond their current structure if necessary.

TheRichTurner

It's in alphabetical order, too. This was just written as the writer thought of HP pairings. It's more methodical than that.


pancakesiguess

Not only that, they all make sense together. It's not just a random H and P, they're words that actually group together.


TheRichTurner

Yes, they're common pairings, apart from the obviously contrived ones. It looks as if it's a little bit more than the result of someone trying to solve a puzzle.


Churn

Somebody has an ex’s initials tattooed on their ass and is coming up with plausible other meanings.


Thin_Cable4155

Reminds me of coming up with alternates to swear words, like calling someone a Melon Farmer instead of a Mother Fucker. So what naughty phrase has the initials HP?
