"Thursday is technically Thorsday. It's just a modern corruption of the Old Norse. There would be no point in changing it."

Bucky knows that he has entirely too much extraneous trivia packed into his brain and apparently etymology of days of the week can be counted among it.

"All of the English words for days of the week come from the Norse. Other languages tend to use the Roman counterparts of those gods for their names."
