     Already knowed 'obtuse' because its writting and sound remembers a
     lot 'obtuso' in Portuguese.  The word is used the same way here.

     It's a pity to learn that 'Schmuck' is a bad word.  It's a cute
     word, sounds pretty good and it would be a great name to some food
     or my future pet.  Meh!  :(

   As with other words, it can be used endearingly to mostly flip the
   meaning: Have a beer, you poor schmuck.
