    Cambridge dictionary:

    obfuscate  [Show phonetics]
    verb [T] FORMAL
    to make something less clear and harder to understand, especially intentionally:
    She was criticized for using arguments that obfuscated the main issue.

    obfuscation  [Show phonetics]
    noun [U] FORMAL
    They accused the White House of obstruction and obfuscation
    .
    So, who's the first to obfuscate???

    I'm not sure...

    When I finish convoluting and morphing my Machiavellian machinations and permutations perhaps I will have some relevant information for qualified release.

    But maybe not...I have no way of knowing at this particular juncture.

    Your alacritous response comes over somewhat alchymistic and mannerchor,

    the sense of substanceless aptitudinality is remarkable.

    I try to overachieve as frequently as is feasible, given my truncated stay on your planet.

    It is my firm intent to discern what it actually is that lies beyond, and then go there to observe it in it&#39;s native environs.

    Forthcoming events will, of course, be, um.... forthcoming.

    When you finally get it all sorted out could you put it in laymans terms and let me know what it all means. To the ordinary man in the stret you two are just talking crap. Why use one word when six would suffice?
