Imho, the vagueness could well be a security layer.

“Imho, the vagueness could well be a security layer.”

I keep hearing that argument but it makes no sense:

If you want information kept secret, you don’t post it on social media sites, vague or not vague.

Rather, you encrypt it and send it privately to “need to know” recipients who have been cleared and provided with the encryption key. If the information falls into the wrong hands and is decoded, usually there are very serious negative consequences for both the sender and the recipient.

The case of Q is different. The use of vague and cryptic language, intended to be understood only by those clever enough to figure out the clues - this method of passing secret information is more commonly found in games, such as treasure hunts, puzzles, cryptograms, etc..

Here, the intention is not really to hide the information, and there are no negative consequences if the clues are solved, nomatter who solves them. In fact, the one who solves the clues may win a prize, or be made to feel smart, feel special, feel like a winner.

Several examples of vocations that employ vague and cryptic references are palm readers, con artists, cult leaders and the writers of astrology columns and Chinese fortune cookie messages.

They know that vagueness and crypticism are their friends if they do not wish to be held accountable for their predictions.

Here is my prediction:

Something will happen in the near future that will involve possibly a family member or someone close to someone in the audience. It has to do with the letter “J” and something green, or perhaps blue.
