Could be the alcohol, but that logic is bewildering. No, neither would be laying hands on someone, at least not in my experience. While I don’t think the term necessarily means beating someone up, it generally means grabbing them in an aggressive way, again, in my experience with the rather archaic term.
But Shodan is choosing, for trollish reasons, to interpret it as though the word “lay” has the same literal meaning as “touch,” and to lay a hand on someone means to touch them, however briefly or unintentionally, with any part of the hand.
Do you have some sort of personal problem with me? Because I have no beef with you. I defend you when people are unfair to you, and generally respect what you have to say, even when we disagree (which is actually not all that often).
Because this post is just weird.
Look at the start of this thread. Multiple posters didn’t understand the OP. Some were even so bold as to attack Lance for not making sense. All because they didn’t click that link and find out what he was talking about.
At first I was going to be condescending about it, defending Lance from these unfair posts. I was going to call people too lazy to click a link. (One they know is safe, so that excuse doesn’t fly.) But then I realized some of them just might not know. They might be using the new mobile theme where the arrow is harder to see. Or maybe they just never learned about it or forgot It’s happened many times before.
So I made a nice, friendly post for them, rather than being an ass about it. But, in the back of my mind, I knew someone would find an excuse to mock me over it.
BigT it was a bad OP. Sure we could have clicked on the link (I did, actually), but a little effort is always nice. In many forums, it’s a requirement even. Here, in the Pit, Lance got about what he should have expected.
