The statement sounds so awkward to my ears, for some reason. I figured that over time it would stop sounding this way, but it just doesn't.
So, my question (to anyone who wants to answer), am I understanding this statement correctly? If not, what does it mean?
I hear the statement more and more, so I am thinking that I really need to be more clear about what it means for communication purposes!

For me, when I hear that my brain translates it to this is my experience.
