    I wonder what other artefacts like that we have.

    I'm sure some streamers use "Tune in", which refers to radio dialing.

    "Dashboard" means a whole lot of things, but originally meant a board on a carriage that prevents mud from being "dashed" up to the passengers by horses (I think).

    Uh..."meal" is literally a kind of grain that most people probably don't eat regularly at all, let alone 3x a day.

    A <- ox

    B <- house

    C <- some kind of weapon we don't even have a name anymore

    D <- fish

    And so on. This set has been running around for half of the world for thousands of years and yet nobody thinks it's a problem.
