6. Does using one word in a variety of ways count?

Such as:

# 1: No, we won't.

# 2: No, you must be thinking of someone else.

# 3: No, I don't need a date.

# 4: No, I don't need a ride.

# 5: No, I don't need a meal.

# 6: No, you may not come into my house.

# 7: No, I do not want to hear what that woman you broke up with did.

# 8: No, no way in hell.

# 9: No, we don't even live on the same planet.

#10: No, you do not tell how I should feel.*

*The one used most often. After all, most of us are a work in progress and our feelings change over time. We don't need anyone interfering with that process. People who insist on telling others how they ought to feel, act and talk, are really talking about themselves and using the wrong pronouns. They should work on their own delusions. IMO.
