Because you avoid describing it, you avoid taking a position, so only you can have a position, but no one knows what it is, so there is no way for anyone to argue against you, so you, and only you, get to talk.
If that's your only goal then by all means, talk to yourself.
> If mosquitoes could speak, I'm sure it'd be something a mosquito would say :)
Why not just outright say what you mean instead of being a coward?
- pydry 3y ago>Because you avoid describing it, you avoid taking a position Because I'm obviously going to take an opinion of "however much blood a person has before a mosquito bites them is however much they should have" rather than specifying a precise amount in liters. The technical term for what you're doing here is "red herring".
