A form of communication used by a JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) in the military to get Close Air Support onto a target. Not like the stupid "We need air support!" bullshit in movies. Each "Line" is a statement of brevity that represents information given to the pilot. 1st line is IP/BP to target, etc.
the 9 line is passed off to the pilot, who then reads back lines 4, 6, and 8. After that, the JTAC will pass on additional info or remarks, before a "Talk on" (basically the JTAC and pilot communicating to ensure that they are on target) Following the talk on the pilot makes their "IN" call before being cleared hot to drop ordnance. Then, boom. Shit blows up I guess.

Pilot requests the talk on (Pilot) "Widow 51, Recoil 11, ready talk on. I see an east-west road with some buildings to the south."
Pilot confirms target location: (JTAC) "Recoil 11, Window 51, call contact on the northern most building in that group south of the road."
(Pilot) "Contact."
Pilot makes the IN call to begin the attack: (Pilot) "Widow 51, Recoil 11, In from the east, 30 seconds"
JTAC clears the pilot to attack the target: (JTAC) "Cleared hot"

A line counter is a construction worker stuck in their old ways, unwilling to adopt adopt new products or technology to make lives easier or faster. They reject the notion that any improvements could be made to tools or processes used in construction and home improvements and prefer to things the traditional way out of stubbornness and technology aversion.
That plumber John is a real line counter, the dude is still using a hand powered drill and flip phone since 2005.

Explaining to your Husband that something you want him to look at is directly in-front of him. Direct line sight from where you are standing.

Whilst a healthy discussion about penises is permissible, if there is a prolonged fixation on one’s own or others penises, then that person will slowly approach the gay line. If someone crosses the gay line, then they will become irrefutably gay forever.
