I love her. She's the queen of TMI during Q&A's. Like when she casually dropped that before she met her now husband, she "slept" with just about every single guest star. What a legend.

    Does "slept" have yet another meaning, or were they all just playing make-believe?

    Yes, that's one of the already-existing meanings I alluded to in my comment. It's also never written with quotation marks.

    I was starting to forget why I have you tagged "Insufferable Pedant" in Voyager. Thanks for the refresher.

    I never use the tag. Anyone annoying enough that I want to remember not to engage with them, I just default to blocking. Do they post good content or something?

    Yeah, how dare I ask for clarification.

    So what's your point and how did you meaningfully contribute to the conversation by essentially asking what it means to sleep with someone and then saying you know what it means to sleep with someone, while somehow having an undeserved air of superiority?

    They're being a bit prickly about it, but using quotes like that certainly implied to me as reader that it was meaning a suggestive usage, which doesn't make sense since the plaintext version already means fucking. I mean I understood their meaning and realized they were just unnecessary quotation marks quickly, but I also at first wondered if there was some sort of third meaning beyond rest or sex that was being suggested by the marks, so I kind of feel like the reaction to them here is a bit overblown.

    never

    Sorry, I'm confused. Weren't we talking about human language here, or are you using "never" figuratively?

    (The quotation marks here are referring to acual quotation of the word you used, not a standard feature of the way the word is normally written or an indicator of some alternate meaning. I'm spelling this out because just in case you're unaware of that usage of quotation marks, which frequently occurs in the context of quoting someone. Unless you're literally asserting that the word "slept" is never quoted, "never" is a strong word to use.)
