I'm pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means.

It's time for another drive to work.

Okay. Last we talked about Theros, I had begun doing my card-by-card stories, and I'd gotten up to A,

which means today we get to go to B. Exciting.

So if those are unaware, normally when I do my design stories,

I'll talk about the design, and at the end, I've started doing card-by-card stories. And the reason

I do that is, A, I have a lot of interesting stories to tell that it has to do with the cards,

and B, it lets me sort of catch some stuff I might have forgotten about and just round things out.

So anyway, we're going to start with B, and the first card to talk about is Bident of Thassa.

Okay, so two things. First off, one of the funny stories was, so Poseidon, you know, god of the oceans,

had a trident, a very famous object, probably of all the objects of Greek mythology, is one more famous, you know, the trident of Poseidon.

And I think the creative team was trying to mix it up a little bit. You know, they wanted a seafaring thing, but rather than the trident, they decided to have a bident. So a bident is a trident, but with two prongs rather than three.

The problem is, trident is a pretty well-known, famous thing.

And a bident, not so much.

So every time it would come up, the following, this would happen every time is, you know, I would say,

oh, it's the bident of Thassa, and the person would go, what?

The Bident.

What's that?

Like a trident, but a bident.

And then they go, oh.

And it's just funny that, like, for some reason, your brain, even though, you know, tricycle, bicycle, buys two, tries, three people get that.

For some reason, a bident as being a two-prung trident was never obvious to people.
