Your response to an event or to something that is said is your reply or reaction to it...Collins dictionary. doesn't say anything specific about liking what you hear How does the Collins dictionary define "grasping at straws"? There are three options: like dislike apathy Neither dislike nor apathy is going to elicit a positive response. That only leaves one possibility.

That sounds like there are four options, two of which could "elicit a positive response": like dislike apathy slotting Otherwise, you will have to explain how something can elicit a positive response from you when you do not like it at all.

Don't forget that '93 Star almost won DCI and at least 2/3 of the audience either didn't understand the show or flat out hated it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have thought we would see what we already do only a few years ago. It's coming for sure, the good or bad of that. Depending who one chooses to talk to..lol Edited October 4, 2021 by GUARDLING 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
