4. <Story>

A and B were former friends.

A: So what did you do the other day?
B: I added some defs to a string, and posted it on a dictionary!
A: Pardon? What did you do again?
B: I defed a word by adding defs to it.
A: Visible confusion
A: Sorry, what is def?
B: def is the word I def'd
A: Could you please clarify?
B: So, I def'd def by def'ing defs to def. Now I am a def'er who defes defs.
A: ...

That was the last time A was seen talking to B alive.

One day, B found a note addressed to them in their mailbox.

A: Sorry, but I def should have known better. I have made the mistake of listening to you rambling on about def, defing and whatever else. As I can neither turn back time to correct my mistake, and neither can I get the defs out of my head, only one option remains for me. def.

B: Mission failed successfully... wait a minute!

This minute proved critical, and its passing lethal. By the time B has arrived at A's place and the emergency response arrived, it was def too late.

E: Words can be lethal. Use them with care.

B: defly.
