No pictures?!

It's currently 1 a.m. and I am probably keeping my roommates up, but I was lying in bed when I had this sudden realization:

Plato = platonic love.
Pythagorus = Pythagorean theorem.
Homer = Homeric simile.

Then I started thinking about the ancient Greek Hippocrates, and what he was responsible for discovering.

Except the problem was, I thought his name was spelled "Hypocrites" (pronounced hip-PAH-crit-ease, in case you were struggling). This made me come to the conclusion that he was responsible for hypocrisy, and that at some point in time, there was a guy who went around consistently saying that things were wrong and then going ahead and doing them anyway. He probably had no friends and was a real jerk.

So I got out of bed and hopped on the internet and Googled "hypocrites" thinking I'd get the Wikipedia page of some ancient Greek douche bag. I just kept getting dictionary definitions for the word. In my half-sleep, I failed to realize that hypocrites is the plural of one single hypocrite, and that it was leading me nowhere. So I Googled "hipocrites", thinking that maybe he spelled his name differently in ancient Greek. Thanks to Google Instant Search, I came up with the wikipedia page for Hippocrates, the Greek guy whose name I was thinking all along, just spelling wrong. And then I was like, "OHHHHH like Hippocratic Oath? Like a doctor?" And sure enough, Hippocrates was a doctor who did a bunch of cool shit. I guess. I didn't actually read the page, just skimmed until I saw "doctor" and then admired the drawing of the bust that is based on his head and shoulders.

Hippocrates = Hippocratic Oath.

Makes a lot more sense than Hypocrites.

But I still think that Hypocrites would have been a huuuuuuuuge douche bag.
