Slippery Slope: trepidatious

Most Americans do not know the root of the word "trepidatious". The root is the German word "Treppe" which means "stairs".

Recall all of your emotions about the courtesy of stairs. Perhaps as a teenage boy waiting at the bottom of the stairs for your dream girl to descend them and meet you. Or perhaps as a teenage girl primping herself hoping to make a great first impression at the top of her stairs like an angel in hopes of meeting a devilishly handsome boy below.

Wall Street and Hollowood have robbed America of the courtesy of stairs.

We are left with lawsuits over dotted wheelchair access ramps to sidewalks that no one walks on anyway.

Fuck balls. Wall Street will feel trepidation when they get blown the fuck up.
