Philosophical mumbo jumbo. Basically claiming that there exists an ideal form of every conceivable object that everything that is virtuous strive to achieve. For example, the crab are obviously a platonic form/ideal.
oh so they're like placeholders then
Not really. But once you've named an organism you're more or less stuck with the name and adding to the follow a set of rules.
Lots of things look triangular.
As they get more and more triangular, you eventually would say "that's a triangle".
Plato suggested there is some sort of higher existence where the perfect, or ideal triangle exists, and that the closer a shape gets to this ideal, the more we call it a triangle.

>find a single species >name it retard >since it's forever alone the genus as well as the species is called retard >find another species >not we have retard retard and retard vulgaris or some shit >realize retard retard is two species, now we have retard retard retard and retard retard australia etc etc
In short Linnaeus was a hack
The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where "feed" and "seed" both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Fuck and Suck". Isn't that funny?

A name so nice, you say it thrice.
Grizzlies are called "bear bear terrible" in a combination if Greek and Latin
genuine question why do they name animals like that with the same word multiple times
The more repeating words you have in your taxonomy, the closer you are to your Platonic ideal.
>Platonic ideal.
okay, and just in case I dont know what this means
