(I am actually testing something: The last word on the next line is not normal text, it might not show up on some devices, and it is apparently not friendly to screen reader software; I am wondering whether GOG will post it, and this seemed like the best place I could find to try. Also, I omitted the next word from the quote.)

the proper term is

Edit: The last word I posted actually did not show up, so it seems that GOG just strips those characters from the post. Anyway, here is another that I saw on a twitter (IIRC) image:

...Actually, the title of that topic should have been posted here. Maybe I thought it was low-hanging fruit at the time? :P
