Frustumated

What I learned today:

The word 'frustoconical' denotes a shape that is conical, but with the pointy part at the top cut off in a plane that is parallel to the base. Also, only a right dickhead would use this word in a patent application to describe a beveled groove.


Faucets are secured to counters by faucet nuts. The faucet nuts are partially comprised of wings. Additionally, faucet supplies are secured to faucets by way of a smaller faucet nut with wings. Faucet nuts are threadably engaged on faucet nipples.

Faucet nipples. Heh heh heh. Faucet nipples.
