Such a great example of 'reality is what you're conscious of', I feel! 'Just throw the lure in and wait' could for another person be 'arrive at a beautiful waterside location, ritually prepare your tackle, cast it into the water (a skill that can be a minigame in itself, with all the associated space for practice, improvement, and intermittent positive reinforcement), then enjoy the wonders of being still in nature, but also focus on your task and be ready to react instantly.' It takes all sorts.

2 units (in this case houses) down and 2 across (a perhaps intentional misinterpretation of the original slightly ambiguous statement). Reasonable to assume down and across are perpendicular directions. Let's pretend space-time is Euclidean. How far away is the listener from the sneeze?

A bit of strain hardening might even improve your (?toughness)?

That is the more common modern usage. I believe 'factoid' was originally used to mean a pseudo fact, or falsehood presented as a fact, but that usage is rarely found today.
