Never clarify. If you're talking to someone that doesn't understand 'not usually' then you're talking to a moron and is it really worth your time to make sure a moron understands what you said? Personally I'll clarify if it's a legit misunderstanding of what I said but if the problem is that I used polysyllabic words they can't follow then fuck em, they can find some 5th grader to explain what I said if they care so much.
