The entire page was amazing, but holy shit that art in the middle that shows how the current system works where kids are sent to school to study and then they graduate, get crushed into becoming mere tools instead of the human beings we are meant to be.

I think it is “Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall” reference.

edit: Ha! Actually one can double-click on objects and get more info about their origin.

		Single-clicking is sufficient :) Also there are a lot of special clickable actions (mentioned in the FAQ > About section, or just keep clicking until you find something, there are 20+ special actions).

Is it just me or is the phrase "human beings" used more often than simply "humans"? I've just started to notice this: the next word after "human" is very often "beings". Whenever someone wants to emphasize our humanity (as opposed, say, to a horse's horseness), they almost always say "human _beings_" instead of "humans". Somehow "human beings" seems to emphasize the "human spirit/soul".

Yes. There are lots around; whenever the original word becomes too short for the importance people want to give it.

Tuna fish, chai tea, Enter the room -> enter “into” the room, French: hui (today) -> aujourd’hui (day of today)

I'm sure I've even heard French people say "au jour d'aujourd'hui"

		I'm pretty sure I've seen that one in a list, by a French person, of things they wish other people wouldn't say!
