I wrote a political manifesto a while back and someone has agreed to publish it. However, their board is full of academics that are debating a single sentence. I guess that means they agree with the rest of the document, which is quite a compliment. They finally asked what I thought about the debate and this is what I wrote:
I'm confounded by the conflation of the terms "confusion" and "conflation" and request a reduction in the obfuscation lest it result in the participants' exasperation. Excessive rumination is another form of perfectionism which stifles the movement that we are all a part.
If anyone doesn't understand its a joke, they should be kicked off the board. The bi movement needs more comedians, less academics.

Sigh. Tell me about it. :) Anyway, I liked all the 998 other words, and the 2 in question.
