When we say Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, are we saying that Spider-Man is friendly, or the neighborhood hm

The connotations are endless these days, so I'm not going down THIS rabbit hole. (tsk)

Why is New York called 'The Big Apple'? That seems kinda out of left-field.

It began in the 1920s when sports journalist John J. Fitz Gerald wrote a column for the New York Morning Telegraph about the many horse races and racecourses in and around New York. He referred to the substantial prizes to be won as “the big apple,” symbolizing the biggest and best one can achieve.

It does bring up the question of why he thought a big apple symbolized the biggest and best one can achieve.
