For some reason it gives you anxiety? Even if the question has nothing to do with anything gross or nasty. Like right now I'm wondering why so many symbols for currency in different parts of the world resemble the first letter of the English alphabet they start with, like the Euro or the Japanese Yen or the South Korean Won, but the dollar sign in Canada and the US looks like a letter S.

Never mind, I just looked it up. Apparently the theory is that it used to be an abbreviation for the Spanish word Pesos, or Ps. That's kind of interesting.

Always worthwhile to look things up, however odd the questions would seem. I've seen some truly odd questions that make me feel that mine are comparatively run of the mill.

The internet is not gonna laugh at you for asking a dumb question. If thats what you're worried about.

The Internet seems to have an unrealistic idea about penis sizes. That's one question definitely not worth asking.
