A response given that does not directly address the question, rather gives a bland statement in order to appease the question giver(s). Usually involves offering a solution that does not leave said party responsible. -To beat around the bush.

Blanket Ripper

An extremely loud, explosive fart in bed, which threatens to tear the blankets apart.
Bloody hell Ernest, I thought I'd never get to sleep last night. The wife kept doing these vile blanket rippers. I was scared that she'd either rip the blankets apart and we'd freeze to death, or the stinking fart miasma would gas us both.
