minus-squaremental_block@lemmy.wtflinkfedilinkarrow-up3·16 hours agoI see that… but I would argue breaks can be given. Therefore one can take a break. Break being almost a non continuation of something. There are two beings involved. And as you point out, you can also perform action consume a break. Taking a poop is slightly different because one is giving an offering. Although one can consume poop too but I guess it’s a different frame.

minus-squaremental_block@lemmy.wtflinkfedilinkarrow-up3·15 hours agoCorrect, but a different context than OP’s framing. Some leave a shit, some give a shit. Can you give a shit by giving a shit? Hmm. Possible maybe under special circumstances. Don’t mind me, these are poopy thoughts.
