I think we need to look at the origins of the word "impacted."

You have 'im', which refers to the 'I' that is 'me.' Pacte, I believe, is derived from latin and means 'elephant' or 'hippopotamus.' Finally, we have 'd' which is old world English shorthand for damnation.

So there you have it: I'm a damned hippopotamus.

Thank you.
