all speech is metaphor.

and it's abundantly clear from this thread that so many of you are acting like self-righteous, arrogant jerks who do not understand that. "so it must be wrong, if someone as smart as ME doesn't understand it, with my perfectly accurate speech!"

Get off your high horse and tell me where I implied that.

What I stated was disliking the use of metaphores. That I use it because it helps fascillitate communication with NT people over what I personally prefer.
