   I haven't thought twice about where "lorem ipsum" was from. It's fascinating how much history there is behind something so inconsequential. And I'm glad that some people still dig for answers when most just parrot falsehoods.

     @Gargron It’s nice when there’s a definitive answer. Other mysteries, like the earliest reference to “pizza,” can’t be resolved — even when the misinformation is cleared away.

     @negative12dollarbill If you watch more than ten seconds you'll find out.

     Why does it say "it's not latin" when it very clearly is, even from the first ten seconds of the video, Latin?

     @negative12dollarbill It's Latin with some letters added and removed to make it appear more like English text.

     I have watched more than ten seconds! Not being weird, but it absolutely without question IS Latin. I don't know what's happening! There's a bit of background, but even the person making the video says it's Latin.

     Is there some kind of joke I'm not getting?
