RELAX, PISSYPANTS.

i think it means, like, using something when it's convenient and when it can be used to take someone by surprise.

like, "Althom was tormenting everyone on the Org by singing a seemingly neverending Pablo Cruise tribute medley, when all the moderators cornered him in a wheatfield and talismanically slapped a loaf of BANNED on his ass."

i think that's what it means, anyway.
