When people would ask, "About how far away am I from x?", I would launch into a description of what the room looked like, and use hand gestures to say, "There's a wall behind you THERE, and to your left is a door THERE...."

And then people would make decisions based on those descriptions, but of course the problem is that nobody sees the scenario in quite the same way, so there'd be misunderstandings and arguments and I'd say, "Nono, I meant you were THERE, and the door was THERE", and they'd go, "But that's not what you SAID" and and and....
