Erm .... can you answer properly ?????

While I'm having dinner







with my friend, Shu Ting, Siao Boon and Pui Yieng,

I asked Shu Ting: " What time are you going to the meeting?"
She said : " as soon as possible."

What did she mean as soon as possible? Can she tell the proper time?

Later on I ask her again :"when can you give me your draft jingle?"
You know what she reply? She said:"later."

I ask her:" Then what did you kind of the song did you choose as your background music?"
She said:" Mp3 music."

Wow she is using Overgenerality for the whole communication.

Overgenerality
words are vague if they have fuzzy or inexact boundaries and hence give rise to unclear borderline cases.
