Lorne Armstrong does not understand:
________________________
— Much like metaphors, Lorne simply cannot grasp the concept of one thing being used to represent something else for clarification.
Antique
— Lorne thinks any item remotely old is an antique, and thus, worth money.
Anxious**
— I have to do this, and some won't like it, but Lorne is not completely incorrect with how he uses the word "anxious." The typical usage refers to feelings of worry or uneasiness, but it's perfectly acceptable to use anxious to mean 'eager' or 'earnestly wishing.' Saying, "I'm anxious to meet you," or "She was anxious to get started," does not have to imply feelings of apprehension or nervousness.
Backpedaling
— Lorne thinks backpedaling is simply 'bringing up the past.'
Benefit-of-the-doubt
Biased
— Lorne thinks biased means 'unbiased.'
Coddling
Deviant
Devil's Advocate
Diagnosis
Evidence
— Lorne seems to think evidence is anything said against someone or something he dislikes, which he will always accept as truth.
Fetish
— Lorne seems to think it means to like something a lawt.
Flirting
— To Lorne, flirting can consist of making lame jokes, giggling like a schoolgirl, sharing awkwardly personal information, or simply sexual harrassing someone. It's all 'flirting' to him
Foe
— Lorne thinks a foe is a 'friend' or 'ally.'
Freedom-of-Speech
Hacked
Harassment
— This one depends on who is doing the harassing. Lorne can call someone over 30 times in one day and it's not harassment, but if a person mentions his name in a video (or blog!), that IS harassment.
Hate Group
Hypothetical
Ignorant
— Lorne thinks it means rude and mean.
Impress
Infamous
Interesting
Literally
— Lorne simply doesn't know what literally means, made evident by such statements as, "You were literally being a piece of shit today," or, "We were literally standing on the edge of goodbye."
Manipulate
— Lorne thinks manipulation is when a person says something to someone to turn them against someone else.
Media
— Lorne thinks of media "like social media .... the newsh."
Metaphor
— Lorne simply cannot grasp the concept. He takes metaphors literally, which is interesting because he also doesn't know what "literally" means.
Notoriety
— Lorne thinks it simply means "famous."
Pathetic/Pathetically
Prejudice
— He thinks that if he likes something, he's "prejudiced to it."
Priority
Project
Protecting
Proud
— Proud just means "happy with" to Lorne.
Real
— It seems like Lorne uses the word 'real' when he actually means 'serious'
Rhyming
— He once said the words think and drink do not rhyme. When asked about it, he said only the I-N-K part rhyme.
Scapegoat
Selfish
Small-talk
— Lorne thinks small talk is how people get to know each other.
Staged
— Lorne calls the To Catcher A Predator sting 'staged' because a camera almost bumped his nose while trying to get a shot of his face
Statue
— A rubber or plastic mold of a body part counts as a statue, according to Lorne
Trigger
Vehicle
— Lorne thinks a vehicle only refers to a car or truck.
Verify
— Just asking someone and getting any answer at all counts as 'verification' to Lorne
Voluntary
Vulva
— No clue. He has no clue.
