Adults be like fuck Stevens universe they had such bad gay rep!!! Btw have you guys seen gravity falls? That show is soooo good did you know they implied honkus and bonkus are gay married in the last minute of their last episode I love them so much 😩
#not saying stevens universe had only perfection gay rep#cause i only saw the first couple of seasons#but they actually tried their best and were written by an lgbtq person#and gay charactets shouldnt have to be uwu perfect babies to be in media#all gay characters shouldnt always be the good guys!#people are unique and varied#this isnt a dig on gravity falls btw that is a good show but its undeniable that their not trying to add gay rep was a better business#decision than su trying to actually include lgbt characters apparently

Conkus of the Bonkus
I first heard this term used by my colleague Dr. Steve Nugent. Dr. Nugent is the Chief of Alternative Medicine for a nutritional research and development company.
Give a name to a symptom and call it a disease.
Conventional medicine has long taken the position that if you have a symptom, there is probably a disease associated with it that has either a Latin or Greek root.
Here are a few examples: Rheumatoid Arthritis, "The name is derived from the Greek. Rheumatos means "flowing", and this initially gave rise to the term 'rheumatic fever'. The suffix -oid means "resembling", i.e. resembling rheumatic fever. Arthr means "joint" and the suffix -itis, a "condition involving inflammation". Thus rheumatoid arthritis was a form of joint inflammation that resembled rheumatic fever."
Diabetes Mellitus, "The term diabetes (Greek: διαβήτης) was coined by Aretaeus of Cappadocia. It is derived from the Greek word διαβαίνειν, diaba�nein that literally means "passing through," or "siphon", a reference to one of diabetes' major symptoms-excessive urine production. In 1675 Thomas Willis added the word mellitus to the disease, a word from Latin meaning "honey", a reference to the sweet taste of the urine. This sweet taste had been noticed in urine by the ancient Greeks, Chinese, Egyptians, and Indians. In 1776 Matthew Dobson confirmed that the sweet taste was because of an excess of a kind of sugar in the urine and blood of people with diabetes"
So our medical system takes a symptom and gives it a fancy word. Or better yet, we have disease conditions associated with the doctor who "discovered" a particular set of symptoms and seeing no other name for it, used their own name. Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, Crohn's, etc.
So then Conkus of the Bonkus can mean, "hit upon the head".
Honestly you need to chill this comic strip was made in 1933 almost a century ago! It is just a joke and anyone who jumps on someone who says the op is dumb or who laughing is dumb. It is most likely used as a joke and I looked on line the link and copy and paste are the closest s things to a definition everyone chill
