You can’t just say “perchance”

    You can’t just say "perchance" as if it's some whimsical relic from Shakespearean times and expect everyone to take you seriously! Do you even realize how absurdly out of place that word is in modern conversation? It's not some charming, archaic term that magically lends gravitas to your speech; it's a pretentious affectation that makes you sound like you're desperately trying to impress someone with your faux erudition. Using "perchance" in casual conversation is like wearing a powdered wig to a job interview—it’s laughably inappropriate and makes people wonder if you've ever interacted with human beings outside of a dusty old library. So, unless you're reciting soliloquies on a stage or penning flowery love letters with a quill, I suggest you stick to words that won't make people want to roll their eyes so hard they risk getting stuck looking at their own brain!
