technically a subpost, but like, more just bc it got me thinking
@MindmeshLink we don't understand why "hyper" is the FurAffinity word for "comparatively giant specific body parts" in the first place - we checked EtymOnline but it didn't say
...although EtymOnline did mention "hypertrophy" so is it short for that? it's not clear and also it's ambiguous anyway
re: technically a subpost, but like, more just bc it got me thinking
@MindmeshLink @packbat it originated in the MUCK scene i believe, where it was indeed short for hypertrophy
