Slow down fuzzy...comprehension is hard for some of the uneducated.
It's just typical southern insecurity. I am used to it by this point.
I have actually tried some introspection to see whether or not I am just trying to 'look smart.' I get this type of stuff a lot. I came up with two things.
First, that I got it from my mother. She encouraged me to read from as early as I can remember and pushed my vocabulary from a very young age. I will be damned before I honor the peanut gallery over her.
Second, I needed to make a standard so that it would not be gratuitous. If I could say what I meant in a shorter form then I would use that. I think anyone can appreciate efficiency. I end up saying very and really a whole heck of a lot more often then I would otherwise but I do make concessions.
I still end up with ridicule from the same type of people over and over again. Oh well.
