You are a master of subtlety, NnB.

I must confess that I often take the literal meaning of whatever anyone says. This is why I'm the designated straight man for our family jokes. *sigh*

I try to layer meanings together into a parfait of multiple entendres.

One can gloss over the surface and catch the obvious meaning, and assume that my conversation is ambling along at a pedestrian level.

Or look for the subleties which indicate that my mind is racing! (As usual.)

One of these days, I'm going to totally burn out my clutch.
