Take two 'major' words (i.e. nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs) from the previous poster's sentence and use them again in a single sentence of 8 or more words of your own.
Try to follow on from what has been said before although topic drift is welcome.
Extra kudos for not repeating 'major' words that have already been used on that thread page (aside from The Two you are using, of course).

Sometimes I have no choice but to suffer fools gladly ~ it suppose depends on my audience.

In some cases, a surfeit of options can make us foolish, like the poor weekend driver approaching Spaghetti Junction* in Birmingham and ending up in one of the rivers.
* The Gravelly Hill Interchange, the intersection of the M6 motorway (Junction 6), A38(M) motorway, A38 road and A5127 road above two railway lines, three canals and two rivers.

There are certain books I've read whose ending seemed to me to be just foolish on first reading but did, when reread, make sense.

People ask, will there one day be an ending to foolishness - in the sense of there being a rising tide of smarts that raises all boats or a certain book that everyone will read and it'll change them - but sadly the answer is no.

People tell me that Pablo Picasso's paintings are highly beautiful but, to be brutally phillistine with you, I just see tomfoolery and the snook being cocked.

"Brutally cocked" was what our British-born-and-raised tour guide said at

Some of the biggest fools are self-styled sophisticates forever showing off their supposedly metropolitan ways and yet it turns out they are nothing of the sort: they are in fact British.
