It was English class. Our instructor was trying to delve into the basics of a narrative. I don't know what it is but I never really found the man helping or contributory to your knowledge. I ain't trying to sound much like a smart ass but it's like one of those things that is brought up since high school. So he goes on ranting about in a way that could make anyone think that he was so caught up with himself. Self-indulgence is excusable only if you're not "indulging" in front of your class for the most obvious reason of proclaiming oneself as an "expert". Anyway, so he talks about making your ideas come across your audience easily by being understanding of their capability (more like insulting). He goes on enumerating techniques in establishing easy understanding towards your readers. Later on, I felt a ringing in my ear. He said, "Please avoid using highfalutin terms in your work." I looked around. People were scratching their heads. It's much the same as saying eschew words that are intimidating and obscure like "eschew". I thought he was a good comedian. I started to like him since then.
