Rhetoric

FEEEEEEEAR! AND CHAAAAAOOOOOOS! BLALALALALALALALALALALA!

Hym "Seriously? No. It isn't that. Really. That is all these people do! Regurgitate empty rhetoric. Your Venecian method doesn't work on me shit-head. It ain't going to work. Literally only one thing will work. It'll start with you and the people who remain will change their mind. So..."

rhetoric-raid

Rhetoric raid is when a disgruntled, former partner sends repetitive texts. The purpose of the rhetoric- raid is to prevent the recipient from moving on, being present with what she/he is doing in the moment, make his/her presence known to the new love interest and otherwise throw the receiver off balance. A rhetoric- raid is a nonsensical series of texts sent by a former lover.

Danni switched her phone to silent after noticing but not reading the rhetoric-raid, coming in from her X boyfriend.
