Do you think April Fools Day is bollocks? Well, you're right, etymologically speaking! Fool comes from Latin follis “bellows, inflated ball”, since a fool is a kind of puffed up person (think windbag). Follis in turn comes from Proto-Indo-European *bhel- “blow, swell” which has a number of derivatives referring to, um, male swelling, hence bollocks from Old English beallucas “testicles”.
The #ConnectedAtBirth #etymology of the week is FOOL/BOLLOCKS #wotd #fool #bollocks #AprilFoolsDay

Happy Monday! My #wotd is the Casio GShock DW5600UE. Sometimes, when I look at this one, it feels like the F91-W's beefier younger brother. The F-91W is a kung fu master and the DW5600 is a Marine Force Recon. #watches #digitalwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #GShock #DW5600UE #horology #horologist
