Experience: a rant.

 What I want to know is, what in heaven's name is unlived experience???

Word To Use In A Sane and Logical Fashion Today: experience. This word comes from the Latin word experientia, from experīrī, to prove. 

It's related to the other Latin word perīculum, which means peril. So experience is stuff that comes from being in peril.
