    Is that a reference to Use of Weapons or Excession?

          On the contrary, rejoice that you can experience them again!

        In one book, there is an outside context problem.

        In another, a chair is used as a weapon.

      I don’t see the link between the chair and OCP.

      I got the Use of Weapons reference.
