Intentionality
As taught in law school: A dog knows the difference between being kicked and being tripped over.

Call me!
"Call me" means "call me". It does not mean anything else. When spoken by a woman to a man it does not, for example, mean; "I want to go out with you". It does not, as the man often thinks, mean; "I find you devastatingly attractive". Once he calls, he has done exactly what she told him to do. She has gotten acknowledgement that he finds her desirable, which is what she wanted. When she does not take his call, and does not call him back, he thinks... "But... she told me to call her". He is 100% correct.

Amerarcana
A future word describing indecipherable objects: mysterious red-white-and-blue cloth, tattered paperback copies of the Constitution, Barbie dolls, portraits of Thomas Jefferson, carved Philadelphia chairs, dog licenses, coins, photos of things called World Trade Center and Golden Gate Bridge. They will be rumored to have come from a lost civilization, but one few people can believe ever existed.
'Another piece of Amerarcana?' he wondered, as he brushed the mud off the strange, almost perfectly round object, circled by small red lines and weird black marks which were shaped like 'M-a-j-o-r -L-e-a-g-u-e' and might once have meant something, although no one could say.
