Impossible

There is a story behind this choice. As a young boy, I said something was impossible. My step dad told me there was no such thing as an impossibility. What was impossible 100 years ago is an everyday occurrence today. When you say something is impossible, you automatically rule out the possibility.
You might say something is difficult, or it's tough, and tough and difficult is still doable.

i tried to post a thinly veiled word (an * substitution) that I don't use because it would be impossible to use in good taste. i was warned not to try to post those kinds of words or i would be banned.

"impossible"
