T-Rex: Let's say I decide to say a word only once in my ENTIRE life. That's a hapax legomenon!

Narrator: HAPAX LEGOMENON
Narrator: "just as cool as it sounds"

T-Rex: Hapax legomenons are words that are only said once by someone! They're also words that only appear once a book, or even once in the ENTIRE RECORD OF A LANGUAGE. Like "gopherwood"! It only shows up ONCE in both the Bible AND in the entire written record of Classical Hebrew. That's one heck of a hapax!

Utahraptor: What does it mean?
T-Rex: Nobody knows! It's a kind of wood? Probably?

T-Rex: It's there because God's all "NOAH BUILD AN ARK OUT OF GOPHERWOOD OKAY" but now we're all, "What? Um, maybe he meant cypress wood? Did somebody transcribe this friggin' poorly?" It's cool how unlikely we are to ever discover anything new about a hapax!
Utahraptor: Its precise meaning will forever remain a mystery!

God: T-REX GOPHERWOOD IS JUST WOOD THAT WAS PEED ON BY A GOPHER
God: I CONFESS I FIND THE SCENT
God: INTOXICATING
T-Rex: YES ITS PRECISE MEANING WILL FOREVER REMAIN A MYSTERY

March 25th, 2009: At Webcomics Weekend this very nice lady named Marie and her friend Henry came up to me and told me they loved my comic and it was very flattering! But Marie was holding a covered container in her hands and only at the end did she open up the cover to reveal her gift to me:

THE CHOCOCHOP CAKE. Chocochops are of course the chocolate pork chops with a real pork chop bone. Chocochop cake is chocolate cake with no pork chop bone, BUT with icing that causes cognitive dissonance. It was the most impressive cake, and the fact that the icing looked SO MUCH like pork fat was amazing. We shared it and it was delicious! Thank you Marie!
