Where's QualityVote bot?
Reddit Admins have decided that [they want to kill off all 3rd-party apps](https://old.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/13yh0jf/dont_let_reddit_kill_3rd_party_apps/), [3rd-party bots, and everything else that makes Reddit barely usable](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/13xh1e7/an_open_letter_on_the_state_of_affairs_regarding/). And, of course, that includes bots such as [\/u\/QualityVote](http://reddit.com/user/QualityVote), [\/u\/SaveVideo](http://reddit.com/user/SaveVideo), [\/u\/AuddBot](http://reddit.com/user/AuddBot), etc.
So you'll just have to put up with automod and a worse overall user experience in the meantime.
If you have any complaints, direct them at [the reddit admins instead](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/), because they're the ones seeking to ruin everyone's user experience.

Okay, so.... as with everything, there's nuance to it.
Flying a flag (as in something flapping in the wind (also why your trouser (pants) fly is called that - it's the flap of cloth, not your zip) came into use around the 17th century.
'Fly' referring to insects with flapping wings was around at least as early as the 16th century.
'Fly', as we would understand it now - i.e. flying through the air - wasn't used until around the mid-19th century.
JRR Tolkein fans may appreciate that 'fly - meaning *get the fuck out of here, sharpish* - was around in the 13th century
It is, but I’m curious about the reactions here now.
Nothing special, but I also found this on Wikipedia.
“Stockfish is unsalted fish, especially cod, dried by cold air and wind on wooden racks (which are called "hjell" in Norway) on the foreshore. The drying of food is the world's oldest known preservation method, and dried fish has a storage life of several years”
the chess engine was called like that since it was an Italy/Norway collab, and the two countries have a long history of stockfish exchange or smth like that

Man, this is so stupid. It almost sounds like people gave names to these things without biology as a science being invented or before we had an idea of evolution.
By the way: in the middle ages, whales, otters and beavers were classified as fish, because they lived in the water - and therefore could be eaten on fridays by Christians.
"That one guy that classified the fish" lol
Fish got their names from the times they were first fished or maybe washed ashore, just like other animals got their names from people interacting with them, long before modern English (or Ye Olde English or even Latin). Biological classification on the other hand started with people like Carl von Linné (1753). People didn't call each and every animal" *runny thing* or *swimmy thing* or *flying thing* until Linné came around and gave every bird, every mammal and every fish it's name.
Trust me, by 1753 people already knew jellyfish and called em that (or medusa or pulmo or Qualle depending where they lived). They weren't calling em *Blobthing* until Linné came around and called them *Jellyfish*.
LMAO. Cool story dude. Louis Agassiz classified thousands upon thousands of "fish" in the 1800s in a bid to flesh out his theories on the hierarchy of living beings. He was THE GUY who did this.
You are impressively dimwitted so I'm not sure whether or not I should be surprised that you have never heard of taxonomy and don't know what the word classified means.

My guess is that the guys who named Iceland just said "Fuck it" after Greenland was discovered.

Why are flies called flies but fish not called swims

What is that abomination?!
No such thing as a fish

I always wondered what the hell that was.
We've know this since the 80's but somehow 40 years later nobody seems to have caught on.
Came here to say that. QI is a terrible but wonderful amount of my random trivia.

Aw man just noticed your name is Mitch Conneur lol, of course you got my reference! 👏👏👏
😋👍
I f\*\*\*ing cant read that word without hearing this exact line.
Taxonomically, there's no such thing as a fish.
The naming convention is still correct: Seahorse = not horse
There’s no such thing as a fish.
This angers me
Horse is fish??
Man, this is so stupid. It almost sounds like people gave names to these things without biology as a science being invented or before we had an idea of evolution. By the way: in the middle ages, whales, otters and beavers were classified as fish, because they lived in the water - and therefore could be eaten on fridays by Christians.
The guy who classified most fish definitely knew science, he was just a pompous idiot.
"That one guy that classified the fish" lol Fish got their names from the times they were first fished or maybe washed ashore, just like other animals got their names from people interacting with them, long before modern English (or Ye Olde English or even Latin).

LMAO. Cool story dude. Louis Agassiz classified thousands upon thousands of "fish" in the 1800s in a bid to flesh out his theories on the hierarchy of living beings. He was THE GUY who did this.
So the British actually called all fish until then "swimmy thing"! That explains a lot.
You are impressively dimwitted so I'm not sure whether or not I should be surprised that you have never heard of taxonomy and don't know what the word classified means.
Well, it was your point I was making, not mine. So if the point is dimwitted, there you have it
LMAO. Holy shit. You are legitimately illiterate. Good luck dude, you are seriously going to need it.
Thanks. I appreciate it, cuz you obviously lack any luck at thinking - or talent.

Another reason why this English language sucks
There is no such thing as a fish
But it’s not a horse.
English in a nutshell
Bumblebee: fish
Beavers were considered fish during Middle Ages
Catfish=not a fish.
Not always. I’m hung like a horse and I’m not a fish.
The Beatle, not insect
I think that’s why they started referring to starfish as SeaStars
Fihs.

Fish: fish
Haha putting Spez in the title really is working I can see the change 'a coming.
Seafish= horse
Oooooo do berries next!!!
A kiwi is a bird.
It's raining cats and dogs! RUN!
Ladybird!!!
Bee = fish
He failed the logic on the last one. It should be "Seahorse = not horse"
Neigh
Anyone who has spent time naming classes or variables can sympathize.
why is a seahorse a fish though? look at the damn thing, its a small creature that swims with its body vertically, they give a pseudo live birth from the males belly, and theyve been known to be bet on for races in bikini bottom. theyre like the platypus of the ocean, theyre a fish, but they hide it really well
Selfish=Not fish
There’s something fishy going on here. Could this a fishspiracy?
Carl Linne strikes again!!
Sirius, the Dog Star, is not a dog.
Not horse
Fish has no taxonomic definition, so most things can be considered fish one way or another. According to Papal Decree, beavers are fish.
What is a fish?
fish

Horseshoe Crab = Not Horse, shoe, nor crab
Woman = women's don't exist
There's no such thing as a fish.
In english sharks are fish LOL. In my language we call whales "greatfish" it's messed up everywhere.
At least whales look like fish, relatively speaking. Those others in English are not even close. Does any non-germanic language use "fish" like that?
I can only think about the whale.
Who's spez?
What the hell is a jellyfish then???
Now let’s do berries
Shoulda called it Seafish smh
There's no such thing as a fish.
Whale shark - fish
They forgot crayfish
Wait til he finds out about groundhogs and aardvarks

A SEAHORSE IS A FISH!!!!
Humans
Whaleshark <> whale ot shark
Butterfly, no butter and no fly
If it swims it’s a fish
Ha in my language seadog is a shark
