Side Note: If you ever hear anyone using the word ‘itis’ you should know its origins. The Itis is that sudden sleepiness we sometimes feel. Think post turkey dinner food coma. The original, full word is “nig**ritis” and it was a highly racist term used to describe that sleepiness because black people are lazy. “Oh man, I ate some much and now I’ve caught the nig**ritis”. I know a lot of black people that use the word, not knowing of ita origins or true meaning.
