    @Azure After I learned the difference between sour and bitter, it's always bothered me when people confuse them. I think it happens very early in childhood. Sour and bitter things both cause you to make the same face, so you assume that the words overlap. On a Venn diagram, bitter eclipses sour. One might mistakenly call a lemon "bitter", but one would never mistakenly call burnt toast "sour".
