minus-squareJack@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoYeah I was thinking about that, but it is not consistent across all punks so it can’t be the meaning of punk right?
minus-squarepoVoq@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 months agoJust like with the original punk there are some posers 🤷
minus-squarenaught101@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 months agoThat’s… Not how words work. Like, a silverfish is not a type of fish, bench dog is not a type of dog, etc.
minus-squareJack@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 months agoSilverfish is called so because it looks like a silvery fish. Bench dog in woodworking is something that holds things. But what is my point they are not fish and a dog(animal) so the words don’t always hold exact meaning.
