Drowning 100% looks like drowning. The problem is that people dont know what drowning looks like. Including myself.
Going to repeat Glemek because you’ve received a shocking number of upvotes.
The point is that people who haven’t seen someone drown, may not know what drowning looks like, with the exception of media depictions.
The title and headline communicate the point effectively which draws out the semantics sadists such as yourself.
Drowning (actual) doesn’t look like drowning (common cultural depictions)
Yes, headline is stupid. Author should be set on fire.
And then drowned.
yeah but you should know that burning doesn’t look like burning!
being set on fire doesn’t look like what you think
especially with methanol.
Or be left to drown?
Both? Hm, no
