I have no idea what a hash tag is.

I just pray to God that it's not hash made out of skin tags.

#hashtag

A hashtag is a word or a phrase prefixed with the symbol #,[1][2] a form of metadata tag. Short messages on microblogging social networking services such as Twitter, Tout, identi.ca, Tumblr, Instagram, or Google+ may be tagged by including one or more with multiple words concatenated, e.g.:

#Wikipedia is an #encyclopedia

Hashtags provide a means of grouping such messages, since one can search for the hashtag and get the set of messages that contain it.

Octothorpe.

I think Octo was Jim's little sister.

No, that is a Euro sign. Both the £ and the € signs have a logical etymology. Not so the $, obviously.

Yeah, well, you're a septic. It isn't your fault that your education was somewhat...rudimentary.

In the US when they press the pound key they mean #. Perhaps you were being snarky or just didn't know.

Is it like noodles became pasta? Still curious.

pfft, there with the cockney rhyming slang again and you call us dumb. . .

I know that engineers at AT&T called the symbol the octothorpe in the early 1950s when touch phone pads were being developed. Other than that, it's anybody's guess.

He just didn't know.

You know Brits, they don't know any better.

I'm sorry, was there a point in that sentence?

He just didn't know.

Oh, I knew. I, however, choose to occasionally educate our more...disadvantaged American cousins.

 

[lovetoread]

Yea right, you knew after some told you, right?

# is actually called an octothorpe.

It pre-dates that by several decades.

The "octo" is for the 8 points on the symbol. And "thorpe" was for Jim Thorpe, the incredible athlete.
