One that is designed for revolvers, not shotguns? (And yes, I know about revolver shotguns, but those are mainly just a gimmick and not really ever used in most contexts. I’m talking about handgun revolvers.)

It’s not even over-analyzing. A revolver does not take shells; they use cartridges, which are not shells. That’s just a simple fact.

I mean in the technical sense, so shells ≠ cartridges, and sure they might be capable of it, but it is not really a thing that happens often enough for it to be a normal thing.

I get it’s a joke, but that’s a revolver, which doesn’t take shells.

Now you’re just playing stupid, obviously to troll, a game I am not willing to play.

Goodbye.

Yeah, that’s not what cisgender or any variant thereof means.

Also, we’re describing a stereotype, not saying it’s true. Don’t shift blame or topic.

I don’t. I was making fun of this post.

It is using the age-old “girls vs boys” trope, and therefore juvenile.

Exactly!

I mean, if you look in dictionaries, you’ll see both definitions, but as I said to another user in this thread, dictionaries include a definition because it is common, not because it is accurate. Just look up the term “literal”; most common dictionaries define it as meaning either “literal” or “figurative”.

Words exist fundamentally to communicate something; if a term is defined so as to be ambiguous, it has failed in that purpose.

Prescriptivism vs descriptivism.

The technical definition is as I described above.

It’s only been expanded in common dictionaries because the dictionaries practice descriptivism, i.e. they reflect not what is the best definition, but how it’s most often used.

In other words, just because it’s in the dictionary doesn’t mean the word means that in a technical context; it just means that’s how it’s commonly meant when used in everyday parlance.

You mean shocked.

If you got electrocuted, you’d be dead.
