Decided to get a fancy dinner tonight and ordered pan fried mallard. The menu said there was a chance that bird shot might be in it. The menu was right.

Every time I hear the word mallard:

Fortunately no. I was worried it would have cracked open a molar.

People who write OG as a position. OT exists because DT also does, but DG does not and therefore G is all that is needed. The O is superfluous.

It did though, it's just not in common usage anymore.  Per wiki:

Quote
Defensive tackle (DT);
Sometimes called a "defensive guard", defensive tackles play at the center of the defensive line. Their function is to rush the passer and stop running plays directed at the middle of the line of scrimmage. The most interior defensive tackle who sometimes lines up directly across from the ball and is, therefore, almost nose-to-nose with the offense's center is often called a "nose tackle" (alternately "nose guard" or "middle guard"). The nose tackle is most common in the 3–4 defense. Most defensive sets have one or two defensive tackles. If one employs a second defensive tackle, sometimes referred to as an "under tackle", they are usually a bit faster than the nose tackle.

But no one ever says it, primarily because it's a stupid name. Guards are called guards because it's their job to guard the QB. There's no one to guard on defense. (I'll ask you to stop there and not continue the logic to why OTs are called tackles because I don't have a good answer.)

OG isn't a thing. It's G. It shouldn't annoy me but it does. See also "centre-half" in soccer, a position that no longer really exists but we still use it to refer to a central defender (who is correctly called a centre back).

No one said when this thread was started that these annoyances have to be significant, or even correct.

The public spectacle of the Depp-Heard case and the glee with which people are following it.
