I think it's pretty simple, if you are speaking English. When you press something you move it away from you, whether it's a door bell button, a computer key, or even a barbell with weights attached. When you pull something you move it toward you. When I shoot, I move the trigger toward me. So, the only time you'd press a trigger away from you would be when committing suicide...or when trying to further wound the language. Our language already has enough contradictions, thank you very much...

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Considering all the semantics grief I was given over my complaints about "press vs pull" when this new terminology became popular, I'm surprised none of the usual suspects responded to the use of the same terms in this ancient advertisement. I'm beginning to think some of you guys are asleep at the keyboard. I won't accuse any of you by name, but some of the initials that come to mind include Stu Wayne, possible Harvey Goldman.... |
