There are some words/phrases, when you think about it, that are totally ridiculous. The one I'm thinking of is: air conditioning. Heating, that makes sense. But air conditioning? It sounds like hair conditioning to me!
Why not cooling? Or air chilling? Or chilling? But AC? Or air?
I'm sure there are other, similar phrases that sound totally inane (some people like to point to American football's "yardage" as silly, which it is, if you think about "meterage").
