- glurgh 13y agoThat's right. A lot words have metaphorical uses. Now, would you say 'it lynched that server' or 'it made that server its bitch'? You could, surely. The meaning will be clear. You'll still sound like a complete douchebag. And that's really the point - not getting into some three mile debate about denotation and connotation - it's to not sound like a douchebag.
