So it's not really child-unfriendly if kids don't even notice

I wouldn't call a bikini that child-unfriendly. It's just a type of swimwear. I had bikini in my language textbooks when I was younger.

I believed Santa would break in through the windows on Christmas Eve. In my country, chimneys are very small or non-existent.
I also believed that you should leave Santa some alcohol instead of milk, but it turns out my lactose intolerant stepdad just had a preference.

Not with "very young" age wise but knowing Japanese wise before starting to learn a bit: That kanjis have to be learnt one by one in terms of stroke order and composition.
However kanji can be broken down into parts to create mnemonics, e. g.
However kanji can be broken down into parts to create mnemonics, e. g.
- 緑 (green) = 幺 (small) + 川 (river) + 彐 (pig's head) + 水 (water) - The pig's head caused the small river to turn it strong green.
- 魔 (evil, magic) = 鬼 (demon) + 2*木 (tree) + 广 (shelter) - Tree demons do magic under shelter better.
- 森 (forest) = 3*木 (tree) - Many many trees.

It’s not child unfriendly if it goes over a kids head. Also bikini is just clothing

Imagine living in the French city of Bitche which is pronounced in French like the B word. This is just a city name and children live there happily just like in other French towns nearby.
(To the mods: filter evasion because that is an actual city located at 49° 03′ 09″ N, 7° 25′ 33″ E and not an insult)

Except they don't always go over the kids' heads, and even when they do, the child may repeat them out of ignorance.
On a related note, I wish the only pronunciation for the planet Uranus was "yur uh nus" so people would be less likely to make disgusting jokes about the name. Heck, name it something else, even; "Steve" would be a kick-ahh planet name.

I used to have absolutely NO IDEA what the words for multiplying things were once you get past 4. I could be remembering wrong, but I think I thought that the word for multiplying something by 5 was "quadriple."

Semi-true. The original name was the Georgium Sidus, meaning George's Star, or the Georgian Planet.
Herschel believed following the naming scheme of Roman deities was old-fashioned, so he gave it a modern name, naming it after his patron King George III.
It's worth noting that this name was only popular in the United Kingdom and Hanover (Where Herschel was from).
Other proposed names were:
- Herschel
- Astraea/Austräa
- Cybele
- Neptune
- Neptune George III
- Neptune Great Britain
- Hypercronius
- Transaturnis
- Minerva
Astraea and Cybele became the names of asteroids, and Neptune obviously became the name of the next planet (without any extra surnames).
Interestingly, Uranus is the only planet in our solar system that has the Greek name rather than the Roman name in English. Perhaps we can start a campaign to standardise everything and change Uranus to Caelus?
