General Joseph Hooker liked prostitutes so much that his name has forever become attached to the profession.
đŸ‘„ Readers added context they thought people might want to know.
The term “hooker” was used in print as early as 1845, years before Hooker was a public figure, and is likely derived from the concentration of prostitutes around the shipyards and ferry terminal of the Corlear’s Hook area of Manhattan in the early to middle 19th century, who came to be referred to as “hookers”.

“Vegetable” doesn’t exist as a meaningful classification. Fruits, grains, roots, and all of the other edible plants are just lumped into this supercategory that ends up not meaning anything. And it includes mushrooms, for some reason.

From the mid-80’s until 2013, Jewish women in New York City could pay tens of thousands of dollars to hire a gang to kidnap their husbands and torture them until they agreed to grant their wife a divorce. The gang’s leader, Rabbi Mendel Epstein, was dubbed ‘The Prodfather’ by the media because he boasted of using a cattle prod to torture his victims.
They were busted in 2013 by an FBI sting operation.
