Fortunately for me, words are allowed to have more than one meaning.

die /dī/

intransitive verb

2. To cease existing, especially by degrees; fade.

I explicitly said I was being annoying for no valid reason. If you want to justify something here, you should probably justify that you weren't annoying for no valid reason.

Does your dictionary say that "not allowed" is specific to parents and children?

From the HN guidelines:

Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

Thank you! That's exactly what you did not do. The strongest plausible interpretation of "not allowed in Europe" was perfectly fine.

I'm glad we agree.
