It depends on the context it's used in.

If someone is talking about motors and muscle cars and says SS, I'm not going to think about screen shots. :roll:

It's more like a generalization, and it doesn't require that EVERYONE think the same think in order to apply.

Although, in this case I don't think you can generally it's true, so I agree with you.
