Because the etymology of "clipboard" comes to us via old English "clyppe bred" - literally, a "fastener board.."   Cupboard, on the other hand, comes from the proto-Indo-European "kewp bherd."  A place of boarding (i.e. maintaining or storing) cups.

 

So they're obviously completely different. 

You and @ExiledInIllinois obviously spend wayyyy too much time on Wikipedia.

@DC Tom will NOT be source shamed.  Wiki like Uber is legit just ask #1 Uber investor @KD in CA.

 

Oh... BTW, can you pick him up in your Toyota Tundra.  He's a little low on funds this month and wants to go to TacoBell.  UberEats will suffice if you don't want chalupa crumbs everywhere.

 

Think of the poor people.  They need fast food too!  Thank you for your service!

 

FOR ONCE, I stayed on topic.  OP topic!!!
