How the FUCK was I supposed to know my character would flip out when I picked the "Glass Him" option? We're at a bar and the guy seems upset so I thought I'd offer him a drink.

BRAVO TELLTALE

If you get told to "knife someone" do you give them a knife?

It's only your fault for not understanding simple shit... If it had said "Brick him" what do you think Bigsby would build him a fucking house?

I can't believe anyone would be dumb enough to think glassing someone could possibly be a positive thing.

why is that so hard to believe?

>hug him
give him a hug and make him feel better

>glass him
give him a glass so he can have a drink

this is just poor writing from the game.

>implying all the non native english speaker understood that

Considering we got english version only in France and that we suck at english, it's not surprising I misunderstood the meaning.
>>
>>323773310
When I hear the term glassing, I think of space ships glassing a planet's surface. I have literally never heard the term used in a way that even implies something good happening. The word hug is the friendliest most happy word there is, glass is not a happy word.
>>
>>323772290
I remember making the same mistake.

I figure it was just bar shit like "hit me" or "scotch me."

>not knifing a cunt
You're squandering the English language
>>
>>323773597
Interchangeable, really, a colloquial term used in most English speaking countries.
Can understand non-native English speakers getting confused, but it's fairly logical, even if English as a language is bastardized shit.

OP is right though, dialogue may use colloquial language but text used in menus and such should be plain English.

Live in australia and we have a problem with fights in pubs and glassing people was one of the major problems which is why most pubs servers beer in plastic cups after midnight. My point being everyone here knew what glass him meant.

Glass him isnt a simple english Idiom.

And if it were, it wouldnt mean "Smash a fucking drinking glass over his head"

It would be something like "Murder him with a gun"

>An idiom (Latin: idioma, "special property", from Greek: ἰδίωμα – idíōma, "special feature, special phrasing, a peculiarity", f. Greek: ἴδιος – ídios, "one's own") is a phrase or a fixed expression that has a figurative, or sometimes literal, meaning.

Like all contemporary shit may-mays these days, it came from /tv/ (the new /b/).
It's basically

It's a serious anglicism.

I bet most of the people who don't know what it means are Americans.
>>
Am I the only one who read "Glass Him" and knew exactly what the fuck it meant just instinctively?

I had never even heard the term before but a image of just smashing a bottle into somebodies head popped into mind.
>>
>>323773303
this man is the reason why I didn't [glass him]

I don't understand this meme.

When I read that shit it seemed like it had an obviously negative connotation so I chose something else.

I can't think of any times I've heard a noun used as a verb where something bad didn't happen.

nah, you're not alone.

I just hope all the people that got it wrong are ESL or some shit because if not that's kind of sad.

I'm american and I knew it instantly.

>"hit me" means to get a drink

Language is fucking stupid sometimes.

so besides this autist, is there anyone else who thought "glass him" would mean anything other than violence? especially in that tense situation

Cmon anon, by nature of the game it is obvious that this option meant.
