      Yes, you're quite right. It's also gratifying to see that he doesn't resort to peppering his conversations with fillers like "yer know" and...er..."like", etc. Most curiously he has difficulty in reading and writing, most likely due to dyslexia. He possesses a raw intelligence but is otherwise semi-educated due to his less than stellar socio-economic situation early in life.

    Public speaking is the highest paid profession in the world not chef cooking.

    he really cranked up the pretentiousness here, a nice little treat for all the oxbridge noshers in attendance

      What does nosher mean? I can't seem to find a satisfactory definition

      @bluebellbeatnik4945 I share the same background as Marco - and I don't find him the slightest bit pretentious.
      He is articulate and intelligent, with a crystal clear perspective - and who does not suffer fools gladly.
      Refreshing.
