Compound words...by Jack William MacLeod

For those interested, compound words can best be summed up as follows:

They're two words, and you smoosh them together.
Stinky poop and chicken fingers are not compound words.
They are separate words. These words cannot be compounded.

For you non-believers, here's the video lecture by Jack William MacLeod.
Where he comes up with this shit, I'll never know.
Be warned though, the attention span of our professor is somewhat average.
Midway through the lecture, his attention gets diverted to a shiny trophy.
I totally get it. The intricacies of the English language are tedious at best.
