I have rather eclectic tastes in my endeavors in life, and the subtle nuances of the subject material requires me to use many multisyllabic words in order to get the true nature of my thought across. The above post, while not necessarily flawed, is, in a sense, relatively wrong compared to reality. Some may find my choice of words in this post ironic, but I found them to be fundamentally necessary to convey my cogitation.
