>>383409053
it means hit him with a glass you fucking retard, have you never been in a fight or HEARD about a fight?

Sitting at a bar counter and hitting someone over the head with a glass is NOT a common occurrence. Maybe it is in some shit hole third world, but I've never heard of it happening here in America. If it does you rarely ever hear about it. How was I supposed to know what the slang of Ireland is?

Neither is getting stabbed in prison. But if you "shank someone," it doesn't mean you're going to give him the leg of a cow. Incidences of something happening have fuck all to do with how common an expression is.

>>383411692
>Neither is getting stabbed in prison.

Actually yeah that's a daily occurrence. On any given day in some prison someone's getting stabbed, raped, or beaten.

>>383411692
Next you'll say no one ever gets raped in prison.

>>383411839
Yeah, and on any given day in some scummy bar in some shithole country, someone is probably going to be brained with a glass bottle.

Oh, and because you're an idiot, I should clarify: "brained" means "to be hit in the head," not "to be presented with a disembodied brain."

>>383411415
I live in Brooklyn and Work in the City and have never heard of this

Not once in a single piece of media have I heard "So I glassed him!"

>>383413378
The difference being "shanking" and "Shivving" are common terms on TV and in books whereas "Glassing" is something I've never heard in my life up until this game.

>>383412228
That's toasting, though. There's not a single instance where "glass him" could mean anything else than breaking a glass over his head.

Glassing is a britbong expression and let's face it britburkas, the world speaks American.

>>383413629
The only instance I've heard glassing is Sci fi movies and games where you obliterate a planet with sustained fire sometimes literally

>tfw your generals misunderstand you completely when you say 'gas the jews'

>>383413853
Listen up you inbred fuckup, no one in this fucking thread but you heard of this term before the game.

Consider that it may not be as common of a term that you think it is.

>>383413931

>because i am everyone

>Woodsman talks mad shit about Bigby's beloved community

Even if you are unfamiliar with the term, you must be some kind of social retard to be unable to read the situation and come to the conclusion that it's probably violence.

I've never heard Glass him before either but if you didn't know right away what it meant based on context in the scene then you need to pick up a Harry Potter book or something and work on graduating from your 2nd grade reading level.

>>383409053
It's slightly olde-timey noir speak for using the glass upside his head. Nobody has ever used it to mean give him a drink and that's retarded.

He's literally admitting to being a "nice guy" in hopes of rewards, and in saying that it isn't working as he hoped, he is inadvertently implying that the people of the fable community are ungrateful faggots.

There's nothing sad about what he is saying. It's a dickhead wallowing in self-pity.

Listen up you fucking moron, the United States is a fucking HUGE country with a shit ton of diversity between the states.
Of course a fucking Yuro will own a passport because he's going on a day trip to fucking Germany, it costs a lot more money for an American to make that same trip.
It's much easier to just stay stateside and go to Florida, Colorado, New York, California, or whatever other state interests you.

This is a more legit case, but even here you are making the willful choice of committing to a violent act, you're just left in the dark about the degree of the violence that is about to come, which is a legitimate blunder on the game's part.

I think people get confused is because the nearest common American phrase is "beer me".

>>383415014
I didn't say no one has ever done it, just saying that it isn't so common that we have a specific term for it.
And even common things don't always merit their own terms, it's not like there's a committee sitting around deciding to make terms for things that happen commonly.

>>383414697
I take the train every day, live in a low income area, and work in basements in condos, apartments, and stores and have literally never heard anyone say glass him in a social area or work area or heard some crazy homeless person or my slightly crazy old ass Ukranian partner who was almost imprisoned in a gulag say it

I didn't ask for your life story, bro. I'm just saying your world experiences are very limited. I'm not gonna stand here and say it's common, but if we were to use card rarity as an example, "Glass him" would probably be an uncommon or a normal rare at the WORST.

Then what is your argument? That the term is better known in some parts of the world than it is in others? Of course it is. This applies to almost everything language related.

However, as pointed many times before in the thread, if the player is unfamiliar with the term, they should be able to deduce what it means by contextual clues in the scene.

Incorrect, context is a sad man telling you why he's depressed as you get information from him, any empathetic player would give him a glass of liquor.
Additionally, as noted in the thread, "beer me" is the common phrase that sounds most like "glass him" to Americans.

>My point is that the US population is far more isolationist than all other developed countries.
Because if you live anywhere in Europe you are surrounded by at least three or four other countries that are the size of a US state so of course you know the general lay of the land. In the US you learn essentially all the states and the big players (Canada, Mexico, UK but more of Britain than Ireland or Scotland, Germany, Italy, France, Greece maybe, Russia, China, Japan, and South Korea) on top of the general history of the country and a very general overview of other things in the world (Mainly the world wars).

Getting pissed at someone for not knowing much about Europe would be the equivalent of me getting pissed at you for not knowing about a state like Wyoming and where it is and how it affects the United States because it's part of it.

All this scene and the fagity as whining about it just made me realize just how many shitty faggots and losers actually self insert as themselves in everything that they play and shit.

Since in that scene and the game as a whole you aint you. But you are Bigby doing as Bigby does. Which is to say that if you played the thing and actually cared and paid attention to it. One would actually get to know and understand what any of the options presented to the player mean in relation to Bigby. Since the whole thing is through his perspective and not instead a fagity as self insert like so many are so used to doing since i guess their lives suck so much that they got to pretend that they are different better people or whatever.
Seriously why do self insert fags got to be such fucking stupid pansies I swear.

>>383419076

"Why should I kill this adorable creature when I could be watching it instead? Maybe even take care of it!"

Cuteness is an incredibly potent survival trait.

>>383418804
How does that not reaffirm my point? As soon as you walk in she looks for a reason to tell him to fuck off. At 2:45 Bigby explicitly says he's getting a hostile tone from the other guy. The entire setting is a powder keg and you'd have to be retarded to not see it.

>>383419473
For the cute thing, yes. I'm talking about the fact that people have a notion of cuteness that those cute fuckers can exploit. What evolutionary advantage does a human get from finding kittens cute? They don't look like babies or qt grills.

>>383419209
>at no point did that conversation reach a crescendo tense enough to warrant a fucking glass to his face

They cry a lot like babies, they have big eyes like babies, and they're always demanding like babies. If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck and quacks like a duck...

>>383419856
Crying a lot and being demanding are NOT cute traits, they're fucking annoying.

>>383419718
I think it's just an accidental side effect on the evolution of infant cuteness. It's like there's a designated threshold determined by multiple aspects of a creature. Maybe not like humans, but I'm pretty sure other animals also have a perception of what they consider cute.

u know that "glass him" can be confused with passing someone a beverage, right? if many people are confused about this (look at the thread), then thats means the instructions weren't clear enough.

Only by someone who literally doesn't know colloquial english terms. It is never, ever used for that purpose.

You have to look at the context too. Bigsby was and him were sitting down talking and trying to be friendly. They talked about how they were tired of fighting all the dam time. Then you get the option to [Glass Him]. I could see how people get a little confuse there

I equate it like this:

In detective, noir, or mafia movies, when people say "[noun] him", what they really mean 99% of the time is "hit him with the [noun]".

Honestly, this really isn't specific to those genres, or even to media in general. I feel like that's just a thing in colloquial English. English games made for an English speaking audience shouldn't have to change their script for ESL.

The vast majority of people who speak English know what glassing someone means. The fact that some autists on /v/ don't understand a simple phrase is irrelevant

>>383425087
I think the real issue is that if you aren't familiar with the phrase, you genuinely have no clue what is about to happen and the act itself is shockingly outside of what you may have expected in ignorance.

Using your own example, if a guy is at a gas station and there's an option for [Gas Him], which you've never heard of before, you have no clue what to expect. You could refill his tank, you could hose him down with gasoline, you could just brush up and fart on him. You don't know. But you really don't expect the guy to lock him inside the bathroom and start dumping cyanide gas in there until the traveler dies.

I just wanted to point out the fallacy of your statement that

This is only true if "conventional math" is, by definition (YOUR definition) math which does not consider 2+2 = 22 to be a valid assignment.
Now consider what's being argued: You tried to claim that "glassing someone" has an unambiguous definition which is widely known in the English-speaking world. This is not true, as is demonstrated by this thread. How could it be, considering that you can't even provide a non-tautological definition of "conventional math"?

>>383425295
>conventional math is math which considers addition to not be concatenation
>therefore in conventional math, 2+2 is not 22, and there is no way it could ever be

Popularity is exactly what dictates meaning. That's how languages work, that's how dictionaries define things.

We have these so that mothers and fathers don't smash their babies head in when they get annoying.

>only Britain uses metric
The US is only one of three countries in the entire world to not give up on the broken imperial system. On top of that, a pint is both a metric and imperial measurement.

>>383426469
A pint in a pub is an imperial pint (568ml in new money).

But what's the point of humanizing animals that aren't even anthropomorphic? How did our brains come to do this? A seahorse doesn't much look like a baby unless you're married to your aunt-cousin-sister.

>I did a computer science degree and now I know everything about maths
You do know that mathematics exists outside of computing? Conventional literally means "in the way most commonly used"
Are you seriously unironically fucking telling me you think more people use 2 as a string than a number?
>>383425608
>conventional math is math which considers addition to not be concatenation
This is literally true. See above, convention is the way things are most commonly used.

I don't understand what you're asserting. Most beer is served in pints or half pints in France, Germany, and Italy, because they all use the metric system.

>>383426468
>red and black pieces

Why is this allowed?

>>383426619
>convention is the way things are most commonly used
In that case 2+2 is undefined because there are many more computers doing addition right now than there are people doing the same, and they don't have a concept of 2*.

>>I did a computer science degree and now I know everything about maths
Jokes on you. I haven't done any comp-sci or programming. I'm just familiar with how adding strings works.

Secondly, you are basing your entire post right now on computing math being non-conventional in [current year]. That's extremely silly, though not as silly as you thinking adding strings with numbers is a mistake and not intentional.

>>383426790
Do you see a definition which in any way could be interpreted as giving someone a free drink?

>>383426309
A strong divide between people that thought it meant something it didn't? Sure, but until it's used to mean what you thought regularly enough to be an understood, documented phrase, it means something else.

Is this a British thing or something? Are you limey fucks all ultra violent football hooligans that smash people over the skull with glasses so often you've had to develop a term for this phenomenon? I've asked someone that has spent decades working in a bar about this, and they've never heard of that term at all; it HAS to be a regional thing.

>>383426884
German here. You're wrong. Beer glasses are labeled as 0.4 liters or 0.5 liters, and you can order a "Maß" in Bavaria but that's NOT the most common way to serve beer. Don't judge us based on a meme festival.

I see a definition that means they can be encased in glass.
I see a definition that means that can scout with binoculars.
I see a definition that means they are going to hit somebody with a glass.

So no, I don't.

It is a british term for using a pint glass against someone. occasionally a bottle. shits nasty

>>383427241
What the fuck is an official meaning if it being documented in a dictionary does not qualify? Continue to back-pedal and continue to be wrong, you can get away with being an idiot under the guise of anonymity.

>Formal and informal language serve different purposes. The tone, the choice of words and the way the words are put together vary between the two styles. Formal language is less personal than informal language. It is used when writing for professional or academic purposes like university assignments.

so informal language is personal? so if i FEEL like it means this relevant to its context, im right to feel that way.

>Informal language is more casual and spontaneous. It is used when communicating with friends or
family either in writing or in conversation. It is used when writing personal emails, text messages
and in some business correspondence. The tone of informal language is more personal than
formal language.

>>383427414
Outside of the meaning it shares between you and your friends it is meaningless. If there's a definition for it in a widely accesible or used dictionary, that is the meaning of the word.
If you do not understand the meaning of the word borborygmus, and assume it means something else entirely, it does not mean what you thought simply because you thought it did. However, if you and many others used that word to mean something else for long enough, it could potentially change the meaning or add a new meaning to the word. See: literally, which can now be used for emphasis despite that being completely absurd because of the meaning we're all familiar with.
