In keeping with the last post

Often my writing is simple. Its intentional and often caused by my inherent laziness. But there are a couple other reasons. My visitors are from many countries and the readers have limited English vocabularies (often) because English is not their native language. It just makes things easier for them. And the paramount reason to write is to communicate and the use of esoteric words can make understanding more difficult to the reader.

I used to keep a sign by my desk which read:
Sally forth and relieve yourself in a vertical trajectory in the immediate vicinity of a piece of hemp.

Many co-workers who understand the English language would ask what the hell it meant.
Go piss up a rope.
