I'd say it's about as applicable to the quote: in all cases it juxtaposes the permanence of death with being able to "shake off" a "mild" impairment (drunk / injured / cramp). | |

Therefore the dictionary definition is invalid. No part of what he was saying has anything to do with actual walking. | |
