hang on someone's every word edit

It doesn't mean you take every word literally, only that you listen enthralled. You could hang on every word of a ghost story: it doesn't mean you believe any of it. Equinox 23:48, 3 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

That is interesting. We would need to meet WT:CFI though; since I've never come across it, I wonder whether it's a rare sloppy usage. If you're particularly keen, add it back and I'll start an RFV (request for verification), which will give it a little while for anybody to find suitable citations before it is removed.
