We know what they meant and it may have been funny once to call them on their word choice instead of what they were trying to say, but it's getting old.You're not paying attention. I wasn't fucking joking.
I was being deadly serious.
Quote:People should be able to say things like 'heartfelt', 'affair of the heart', 'heartbroken' and so on without getting derailed by biological literalness.Oh don't be so puerile please.
This is not an objection to someone talking figuratively.
When they say "heart" they are literally making a claim about their soul's "inner core" (whatever the fuck that means), and by extension the heart of OUR souls, to that I say "complete and utter nonsense" - the only heart we have is the biological organ with the same namesake, not some "spiritual" brain fart.
