      True, tho I personally think the term takes on a slightly different nuance when applied to something without sentience. We can’t hunt easter eggs in the “kill them” sense because they’ve already been prepped. There’s nothing to kill.

        I was going to say ‘on the hunt for the best cheeseburger in Appalachia’ but that would involve ending the burger. Easter Eggs we don’t usually eat, though… I guess you can…

          Well that’s just a distinction between ostensible intention and realistic application of the word. Sure, you’re right, but they’d never admit it lol.
