It is the only way I can explain the fact that most of the time I haven't the foggiest notion of what he is saying. So he must be profound. My brain is too logical to pick up on what many of you are saying. Even your poems seem to be a collection of words tossed together that make absolutely no sense to me. Therefore, it must that I am the stupid one, ...[text shortened]... e everyone here can beat me at chess and are at a higher level of intellect. I still like Bob.
Indeed, m'lady! INDEED!!!!!

You think Bobby must be a genius because you haven't the foggiest notion of what he is saying?
Of course! Why didn't the rest of us see that? Now it all makes sense! 😲 😲 😲 😲 😲
Originally posted by sumydidHow true. Some of those words are really tough, like apotheosis or hypertrophy or triskaidekaphobia. I hate it when he does that.

Originally posted by HandyAndyI think he knows exactly what he is saying, but I am too dense to understand some of it, just like some of the poetry people compose these days. The words are common ones, but they do not fit together sometimes to make any sense...at least not to me. I do not want to accuse them of just trying to sound profound, so therefore, the fault must lie with me. Frankly, it is not worth the time and effort to try to figure out. (I am talking in circles now because it is nearly 1 a.m. and my brain is shutting down for the night.) G'night, Andy. 😴
They think you're a genius because you don't make sense. 😕

You are an intelligent woman.
Not understanding Bobby is a problem many of us share.
Much of what he writes is double talk.
I share your frustration.
I, too, am too dense to understand.
