Did you have to use the phrase "out there"?

Is there a special significance of the phrase "out there"?

My name is not Crisp, and I've been down this road before, running away doesn't return ones addiction.

It means both things here. I guess it depends on the context.

Pretty awesome last name, though, as far as last names go and all. -nickname is Krisp-

Really? They had to include the pun "foal play". That's dignified.

I think that it's somewhat more likely that someone typed the wrong word than that the reporter was trying to make a pun.

Is that even a pun? Wikipedia says it's a baby horse.

It is, just a really really bad one, and a bit of a stretch. Edit: I interpreted it as saying he was a young child, and because he was lost in the wild.

Jon, that's ridiculous. Why would you think that it was a pun?

Because I think that too many things are deliberate and then extrapolate false information based on that false assumption far too often.

The thread title is confusing.
