Impuzzibility - What's that?
If you've ever come across a puzzle that looks impossible to solve, but on further investigation appears to be possible if
only you were to expend ridiculous amounts of time and brain power, that's an impuzzible.
There are loads of impuzziblers out there creating fiendish impuzzibles which turn an ordinary puzzler into
an impuzzleplexian who spends their lives impuzzling, frequently hitting an impuzze but ultimately
becoming an Impuzzlophile.
