Bugs Expiring....

[ Edited ]

 That is what   David the host said instead of DEAD BUGS.  I  have never heard anyone say the term expire  for killing bugs.....   So funny.   I always liked the line IT KILLS BUGS DEAD!

I have heard people, here on the boards, say that their plants "passed away."  

 

Seems crazy to use euphemisms in such situations.

I guess the word DEAD is not discriptive enough.  I think it says it all....  THE END.

I use the word died for people, pets, plants, the lawn, etc. I have never been around people who used the term passed away or passed. Ever. Is it a regional thing or a religious thing or a generational thing? Everyone I have ever known, when speaking of someone deceased, said dead/died.

Who cares, it all means the same thing, they are gone.

IN this day and age,  "killing bugs" is probably too much for sensitive viewers and they would have had to issue a warning about it.
