Why do people say "pop" a heavy ammo synth.

I understand shortening things for time's sake, but "pop" is no harder to say than use. I'm pretty sure it doesn't pop when you use it. #destiny

  • Maybe it depends on how the person talks normally? Not everyone speaks the same and or acts the same.. There is no right phrase, who cares.. Why nitpick something so stupid?

    It's slang used in certain regions that catches on else where because of the internet. I play with Aussies that say snag all the time, now I can't stop saying it. Let me snag this chest real quick. Hold up, don't kill the boss yet, I need to pop a three of coins first. It doesn't save any time, it's just how some people talk

        The mechanism of a heavy synth works very similar to that of a bottle of pills. One day, you pop one. It feels weird, but good. Powerful. ... You've gotta try it again. Maybe the effect was just from it being your first time. *pop goes another one. WOW! It's even BETTER the second time! Soon you've depleted 376 coins worth and launched so many rockets that you have to lubricate the inside of the launcher. You can't stop! The feeling is just too much! TOO MUCH! YOU CANT PUT THE SYNTHS DOWN! MORE MORE MORE!!! YOU HAVE TO HAVE HEAVY RIGHT NOWWWWWWW! And then... The exchange rate of heavy synths drops from 5 to 3. WHO HAS DONE THIS! WHO would DARE to take them away from you! You won't let them..... You REFUSE to have the one thing... ONE thing that you live for... Be snatched away. Your friends and family try to ease you; tell you it will be alright. YOU HATE THEM! YOU HATE THEM FOR THEIR BLINDNESS! HOW CAN THEY NOT SEE THAT THERE IS NOTHING ELSE! NOTHING.... But the feeing..... Of *popping a heavy synth....

        • It's like popping pills, it's just slang, it's a thing relax. I always though of it like, popping open a box of ammo.

        • It just feels more natural to say when you're in the heat of the moment. That's the best explanation I have, no real rhyme or reason to it.

          • I know it might seem absolutely outrageous but people are actually unique in themselves and live in different areas. These areas actually produce slang words or more commonly used words. Astonishing I know.
