      That seems like a very narrow definition. Are you sure you’re not just spouting your opinion?

                  Did you not understand what you were asked?

                  No. You haven’t explained who is doing the vetting you’re asking about, which is critical to answering.

                    I asked you, pumpkin. Youre the one who answers. If I was answering my own questions, I wouldnt be talking to you.

                    Do you need a pad of paper? Maybe some crayons? This isnt normally a difficult question.

        Provide a definition if you think my very broad description with a single example out of many possible examples is inaccurate.

            You questioned whether I was just spouting an opinion, which would imply that it was inaccurate.

            Feel free to provide a definition.
