Hi, did you know that the car was invented by Karl Benz?
gpt
*eyes widen* No, I did not know that. Is that the same person behind Mercedes Benz?
human
I believe it is.  He patented his motorwagen back in 1886.  A lot of things are named for people. Take the car brand Cadillac for example. It's named after a french explorer that founded detroit.
gpt
And Ford is named after the person who brought cars to the masses right? The 1908 Model T. 
human
You're exactly right!  Do you know why a car trunk is called a trunk?
gpt
I heard that it is because cars used to have wooden trunks on the back! I wonder if those were very early model cars. It's surprising that before the model T, just over a century ago, people used horse drawn carriages.
human
It really is.  Times change and things that are common place now were odd back then.  The romans for example thought that wearing pants was a sign of being barbaric.
gpt
Yeah, you are right. Do you think saggy pants are barbaric? In Collinsville, IL they are outlawed.
human
i don't know if they are necessarily barbaric but I do think if they are sagged way down by the knees they they should be outlawed.  Did you know that the whole reason for pants is horses?
gpt
well, that makes sense. How about hammer pants? I vaguely remember people wearing those.
human
I remember hammer pants!  They looked like arabian pants.  I guess that's why Aladdin wore them.
gpt
*eyes brighten* Haha, right. They looked great on Aladdin, but not sure about anyone else!
human
True. They worked perfectly for him!  What I find really bizarre is that pants originated in East Asia! For some reason I assumed it was England or France that created them.
gpt
Interesting! Some people take their pants seriously. A judge once sued a cleaning business for over 67 million because they lost their pants.
human
*relaxed posture* That is definitely serious. I wonder if they were made of some special material or something.  Do you know if the judge won the case?
gpt
I don't know, but I am curious to find out.
human
i am too!  Sixty seven million dollars is a lot of money for a pair of pants!  He doesn't sound as nice as mcdonalds. They invented the drive through just to help out soldiers.
gpt
*sighs* Wow, that is quite a nobel cause. I heard it is because soldiers couldn't get out of their car while wearing their fatigues. It's sad that many Americans have used the drivethru for their own laziness since then.
human
*hands at sides* The soldiers took their uniforms seriously with good reason.  That judge you were talking about seems odd.  Hey, here's an odd fact for me to learn.  In England pants are underwear and not pants like Americans think.
gpt
Haha, that is funny! So I guess they call them trousers?
