But I Do Quite Well at Hindsight

I’ve never been percipient or farseeing or full of foresight, and, at the rate I’m going, I can’t foresee that I’ll ever be farseeing, or percipient, or full of foresight. That is, even though I’ve never been prescient or percipient or farseeing, or highly discerning or full of foresight, I do possess enough prescience and foresight to presee and predict that I’ll never ever in the foreseeable future be very farseeing or percipient or full of prescient foresight. That’s quite foresightful perception and percipience, n’est pas?
