Comment on `zsh`, `ksh`, `bash`, and obviously `sh`

  I mean in the technical sense, so shells ≠ cartridges, and sure they might be capable of it, but it is not really a thing that happens often enough for it to be a normal thing.

    I guess, it just seems odd to me to correct a meme for using a term in way that’s absolutely vital for both the rhyme and the pun to actually happen and not even really wrong, just weird if you over-analyze it.

      It’s not even over-analyzing. A revolver does not take shells; they use cartridges, which are not shells. That’s just a simple fact.

        Uh, no. No it’s not. You can have a cartridge that fires a shell instead of a bullet. That is totally a thing.
