So, Why Is...

For all of you out there who have wondered why a boxing ring is square and Madison Square Garden is round, ponder this with me:

Why is it that "Wise Man" and "Wise Guy" mean the opposite, but "Fat Chance" and "Slim Chance" mean the same thing?

And why is "people of color" acceptable, and "colored people" not?

Silly, isn't it?
