This is oh so good to hear.

This appeal really touches one:

However, every mature adult person already knew that his appeal was FUTILE.

So, from this what can we learn?
We learn that his man has a propensity for exercises in:

verbal futility.

And that is really sad.

He does not talk for real nor does he talk sense.

We assure you that will get even more of it from him in the many years yet to come.
So, be forgiving and be tolerant or:

CLOSE YOUR EARS AND SHUT HIM OUT!
