It’s just an old fashioned verb, don’t see anything wrong with it so yes you’re unreasonable.

Is a pop longer or shorter than a nip or a bob?

It must be wonderful if english is your second language. Cant remember a verb? Replace it with pop!

Didn’t that muddy the waters with Louise Woodward’s case? She told the cops she popped the kid on the sofa, and in the US to “pop” someone means to strike “He said my mom was fat, so I popped him in the mouth”.
