"I've got it!"

"What? What's going on?"

"I was taking my shower when it hit me right in the face!"

"Are you okay?"

"What? Yes. I am. Why do you ask?"

"You just said that your shower hit you right in the face."

"You misunderstood. It wasn't the shower that hit me in the face."

"Oh. Did you hit yourself in the face? You should know better than do this."

"No, I did not hit myself in the face."

"Well, you only mentioned the shower and you, so..."

"It is a metaphorical 'it' that hit me in the face. There was no physical impact. [Slap] Ouch! Why did you do this???"

"I'm not fond of metaphor and wanted to make the situation concrete."
