Boner
You shall rue this day apparently.
What's the actual meaning of boner?
mistake
I'm assuming boner here means mistake but actual boners can be mistakes sometimes and lead to unintended consequences
I half remember being told this originally came from bonehead. so like a bonehead would make a mistake like that. which then got shortened to boner.
there was an 80s kids show where one of the characters was literally named boner lolllll
