Gotta love hearing terminology used incorrectly and being told it's correct, not knowing it and using it incorrectly in conversation with people, and then later finding out it means something completely different and should in no way be used in the way you previously heard it was used.
I, um. Yes? No? I cannot into the meaning of life here.
Get told something means something it does not, use it incorrectly, find out it should in no way be used to mean what you thought it meant.
Also being sarcastic about the gotta love it part...
And in this case the term, phrase, whatever the proper word for it is since I'm tired as shit, was the Thin Blue Line. What that actually is is an emblem used to commemorate fallen law enforcement officers in several countries. How I had originally heard it and used it was in reference to police officers lying to protect other police officers in instances where they should have been punished, and this is the interpretation that the person I heard it from affirmed to be the correct interpretation. Since something as little as the meaning of most phrases seemed something not worth lying about I took that at face value and used it in a couple conversations as such.
