going for the capillaries 

Making an ineffectual attack against a relatively minor aspect of an argument or adversary, leaving the object of the attack unaffected.

An attack that is misplaced and off-target and does not address the fundamental issue.

The tactical opposite of "going for the jugular."

In argument, correcting your opponent's grammar instead of attacking her argument is an example of "going for the capillaries."

Capilla 

Quite possibly the best family of PKers ever to walk the Lothlorien and Deadly Temptation realms.

As you type who, you see two Capilla family members, and all you can hear is someone chanting, "Rape, rape, rape, rape..."

crapillary action

Similar to capillary action, this is the process that allows the brown liquid from a baby's full pant load to creep up the narrow gap between their diaper and back rolls. This can happen without a gravity assist - often the crap juice will travel in ways that seem to defy conventional physics.

As I put my hand behind baby to get him/her/it out of the crib, I got a handful of soggy onesie. CRAPILLARY ACTION!!!
