Eschew obfuscation

I bought this refrigerator for $25 about 15 years ago. It sits in my basement and keeps the coldest beer in town.

It came with the stickers on it.

I have never once heard anyone use the word obfuscation in casual conversation until last week.

Tim Gunn on Project Runway used it when referring to someone's dress design! He said something like, "I'm afraid it's just going to create obfuscation."

Are you trying to use long words like obfuscation (sounds obscene)to detract from your cold beer obsession? Too late! Your secret is out . . .

Oh no - I eschew cold beer at all times. :-)
