This quote is from the Merriam-Webster dictionary. If the person concerned should read this I’m sure they’ll know who it refers to… but because of their ‘infirmity’ probably won’t understand *why* it’s here, probably because of the last eight words. I say no more other than the mind boggles… and having boggled… moves on.
