The uvula (the punching bag at the back of your mouth) comes from the Latin uvola, meaning “small bunch of grapes.”  It’s the diminutive form of uva (grape).  It does kind of look like a small bunch of grapes.  Or one grape.   Apparently, uvula piercings are starting to become a thing.  But the uvula is hard to pierce because of the gag reflex.

I think people should listen to their bodies.  When you gag, it’s your body saying:

You freaking idiot.  Do not stick that needle into that uvula.  You are a stupid piece of trash.

…my body’s extremely cantankerous.
