I can’t think of a worse choice of word for saying “confuses or obscures” something. However, it would be less baffling if people used it more,
hence I will try to use it from now on.
Perseverance is my middle name. Growing up in a small village in Brussels, I didn't know French and had to learn it through sheer tenacity. Now I can speak French.
When I put my mind to something I get it done. Like this website. After 3 years of fighting the urge to not be bothered, I finally did it, and I think you'll agree that it's pretty bloody majestic.
I can also jungle (but not more than 3 breaks).
