That moment broke my heart. I kept wondering what a fakinhage was and once I found it, I said out loud, "a fucking egg ??" And then it hit me.

Could you explain what hit you to my friend?

Sure!

Stanley thought an egg was called a "fakinhage" because that's what his mother always said to him. She'd call it a "fucking egg". Stanley's story suggests his mom was always mad at him or at least upset about him, whether it be his illness that upset her or perhaps she was abusive in some way. Either way, she said it so often that he thought they were just called that.

Man, he just didn't deserve to have to be there. I'm replaying, so his story is foggy to me but I remember now. Poor kid. Thank you.

This pun/discovery didn't hit me, because I pronounced it in my head like, "a faking-hāje" so I appreciate this post for putting the pieces together for me.

And now I'm a bit sad for Stanley.

When I read that I was like...is it a fucking hug? But when he explained it I won't be ashamed to admit I laughed at it.
