Let’s say you can’t quantify anything by scale, name, or origin; but you still have to explain it.

And we guess what it is.

Well, it's red on the outside and white on the inside. Tart and crunchy when I ate it.

Reminds me of the old schoolboy joke (this is a cleaned up version):

Q) What's red outside, white inside and screams?

A) A London busload of white supremacists going over a cliff.

I don't have to explain anything to you.
Especially when you don't seem to have any idea what you're talking about.

I’ll take things that are quantifiable and things that aren’t for 1000 Alex

Well, quantifiable means to assign a numerical value.

This can be done for scale. We can compare the scale of a breadboard and a house by their size values.

Pretty hard to do it to name or origin.

" 'Apple' is twice as 'Pencil Sharpener-y'."

"My mystery object is smaller than one milli-Ancient History."

tis particularly hard. Why I let the subject of ‘teeth’ or bitting sensation go as it does give a scale to the matter.
 
The diameter of an apple is about 12X the diameter of a pencil, but the wooden part of a pencil is 6X the density of an apple, while the graphite is about 14X the density of the apple. The graphite accounts for 9% of the pencil. Since the core of the apple is usually not bitten, the graphite should also be exempt from biting. however, that is a question of taste, not of scale.

If i stab an apple with a pencil does it make more graphite
