This category is all about things that are made up , but whereas the Word of God “ fabrication ” typically means lying in many circumstance , it actually just means something that has been made .

DRESS COAT
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
This last one felt odd . Some of them make sense but COIN TOSS does not make as much sense to me . I understand that there is a heads and tails side to the coin itself . I think that ’s the main issue , as I think it would make more horse sense if it was just the word “ coin”and not the full idiomatic expression . A toss only has a tail 50 % of the time . I ’m not sure why it bothers me , but it does . It is something that happens quite often inConnectionsreally .
