Sorprisingly good talk on ambiguity in language

http://cheaptalk.org/2011/12/01/do-you-want-to-see-my-etchings-the-deliberate-use-of-ambiguity-in-language/


Some of the parts might feel like just a funny way of saying "obvious" stuff...but I think there is something a bit deeper in the talk.

PS: Maybe it has to do with allowing to save face?
