I'd say it's fluff because the first half adds nothing you don't already know by that point, and the second half is a longwinded way to say 'he liked rebuses'.

- CoastalCoder 3y agoTIL that "rebus" is a word. Thanks!
- PokemonNoGo 3y agoI could have sworn we in Sweden used another word for rebuses and I was proven wrong many times in a pub discussion recently but I'm on a hunt for my word. (Very interesting I know...) If you don't mind what word did you use before for rebus? (I haven't given up there is an archaic or "brand name" out there I saw in my youth...)

- PokemonNoGo 3y agoDingbats! Thank you so much! I don't know why this was such a hard google! Legend! :)
- BobaFloutist 3y agoSo glad I could help :)
- CoastalCoder 3y agoHonestly I don't think I ever had a specific word for that. It's not something I ever had cause to discuss.
