Etimoloji (İngilizce)

From a character, called Panurge, in the book by François Rabelais. In the story, Panurge buys a sheep from a vendor and in revenge throws it into the sea. The other sheep in the flock, and the vendor himself who has jumped on the back of the final sheep, instinctively follow suit and drown in the sea too.
