Language, with all its intended meanings and misinterpretations, causes an immense amount of timewaste; time spent scouring dictionaries, philosophising over the deeper nuances of a single word, reading agony columns to find out if your partner really does love you when they say they do etc.

To end all this angst, speak only in cryptitudes which no one will have a hope in hell of understanding; i.e "I felt like a teabag at a barndance" or "That top suits you like a greenfly adorning a coconut". If challenged, smile cheerfully and continue to verbally bemuse along the same lines.

       Maybe so, but don't wager all your brass pianos on the last electric hamster.

       This is pure misembulation, is it not?

       Precisely not, the doorbell spaketh, this waffle manifests the very essence of Grüemeister's Irreverence Theorom. Eels, I say!
Alterother, Jul 20 2012
  

       Eels indeed.

       When tempests roar, I'll have some more
of soup with rancid barnacle.
Though ducks do strut, distributing smut,
the post is "be an Oracle" ?

       You see, [Quest]? Those guys know which side of the cheese to eat. Eels to all.

       It's the pompatus of love all over again.   

       Shaka, when the walls fell.

       A grassitive vote from me on this one [?]

       Well, if the wind were Southerly, they would be able to tell a hawk from a handsaw, shirley?
