Obviously, he wasn't a very good electrician.

TheHound,

      Well, God damn, this is the first time I've learned something from anyone on Livegore. I was about to leave a comment about how death is not implied.  Then I thought, I better read up on it before typing anything. I'm slightly embarrassed for not knowing that.  I know so many definitions for words that are erroneously used by most people.  Like idiot, imbecile, and moron.  Or meteor and meteorite.  I didn't know electrocution is the term for when an electrical event results in death.  And if the person survives, it's called an electrical shock.  I should've known that.

That is not true. I've been electrocuted a number of times didn't die.

Think of it like rape. I can rape a girl multiple times, but I can only rape her to death once.

GeorgeFloyd,

      By chance, did you read my comment?  Have you ever seen anything I've typed in the past?  I'm easy to spot.  I'm a bit insane about accuracy and education.  I'm not typing that I'm never wrong.  But you can usually put some stock in anything I type.  I did think the same thing you thought.  But as I typed, I decided to look it up before commenting.  Only stupid people converse about shit they don't know.  And even dumber people take it up a notch and teach those things they don't know.  TheHound is correct, and though I was going to check if he was already.  When I read the last two words he typed, "is redundant".  I took his statement as likely right.  That's something educated people who give thought to the words and meanings when they put a sentence together try pointing out to others so they stop typing like idiots.  It never works, but it's common.  Anyway, here is the explanation, if you care to use words correctly.  The first is a legal definition and the second is the general definition that is commonly used wrong.
