    For the first part, the corpulent thing, I’m just pointing out something that’s true. It’s unusual to use the word figuratively.

    For everything after that, it’s because you’re kind of being a dick.

      Sure, in your experience. I’ve used and seen it used literally and figuratively.

      For everything after that, it’s because you’re kind of being a dick.

      Nah, I followed the back and forth and you’re the one being a dick trying to gatekeep the usage of a word.
