TIL that the very word "guy" may have first entered the lexicon as a common word following Guy Fawkes' famous attempt at blowing up parliament and assassinating King James I.
It was a name, that became a celebratory term on November 5th, to a common word for young males, to a more generic term for any people or individuals.
Went down this rabbit hole due to a completely random DM from fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6) who was curious if i knew... Now i know 🤣
