Superfluous Explained
People keep asking me what 'superfluous' means and why it is the title of my blog. Well first of all, Superfluous is my favorite word. And if I was ever on Inside the Actor's Studio, that would be my favorite word pick. Secondly, I used to not know how to pronounce superfluous, and I even looked like a total idiot trying to impress a guy with my expansive Russian Literature knowledge. (My favorite short story is called "First Love" by Ivan Turgenev, which can be found in the book, "Diary of a Superfuous Man"). Well of course I said Super-FlU-ous, when you should say: Su-Perfluous. Whatevs! Here is the definition of Superfluous, which I guess if you read between the lines, you could say that is a definition of me. You tell me... su·per·flu·ous –adjective 1. being more than is sufficient or required; excessive. 2. unnecessary or needless. 3. Obsolete. possessing or spending more than enough or necessary; extravagant. su·per·flu·ous·ly, adverb su·per·flu·ou
