Dumify It!

Dumify = The act of making something simpler/ less confusing/ stupider than it should be.

Ok, to put it simply, the OP (me) posts a sentence of eloquent vocabulary, then the NP posts a dumified version of it, then proceeds to post another sentence with big, fancy words. Here's an example.

Poster 1 said:
Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.
Poster 2 said:
Something that stopped will only move if you push it.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Poster 3 said:
Firing a gun will make your hand move back.

As usual, all SPPf rules apply blah blah blah. And if you don't understand the sentence/ can't dumify it, just post 'pass' and then proceed to post another sentence.

I won't torture the NP by posting the entire thing.

Moles don't exist to be whacked.

In fluid dynamics, an object is moving at its terminal velocity if its speed is constant due to the restraining force exerted by the fluid through which it is moving.

All compromise is based on give and take, but there can be no give and take on fundamentals. Any compromise on mere fundamentals is a surrender. For it is all give and no take.
