Why am I always desperate for adventure?

I have often had a chuckle at the word "subtle." Truth be told, it’s for rather nerdish reasons.

I love it because there’s a silent b sitting snugly near the middle illustrating perfectly what the word means. It’s there all right but it’s doing its best to remain hidden in plain sight. Ain’t that cool? Look deep enough in the English language and you’ll find it often conjures up little gems for the beholder.

Subtle things are things that are present but so often escape our gaze.
