Олли, здесь будущее время имеет особую функцию, о которой Uly уже писал - повторяющиеся действия.

CONCOCT is almost always used sarcastically or humorously, as in this context. The speaker is basically laughing at themself.

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 3 years ago

Yes, the more so because that made me wonder what the meaning of the word "hair-brained" has to do with "hair"? I read that it comes from the allusion that a hare-brained person has the brain as small as a hare's. However, both spellings are possible.

I never even thought about that; I just dictated it and let my iPhone write it 😂

😂 In the age of dictophones, there's nothing left for them but accept both spellings when it comes to compound words where one part is an omophone.))
