You know what irrationally gets on my nerves? When Australian people call bell peppers “capsicum.”

Quick science lesson; Capsicum is the stuff that makes peppers spicy. The reason bell peppers aren’t spicy is because there is no capsicum in them.

you are actively wrong to call them that.

That’s capsaicin you dolt-witted dweeb-wise dork ._.

Capsicum is a genus of flowering plants in the nightshade family Solanaceae, which yes includes bell peppers (Capsicum Annuum) ._.
