It has always bugged me when someone (usually my mom) says that a target page is linked to the source page (reverse from normal web speak). Now I notice that Berners-Lee himself spoke of hyperlinks in that way on the first page:

    Everything there is online about W3 is linked directly or indirectly to this document

The even cooler thing is that to this day browsers are correctly displaying the page.
