Benign Idiopathic Seizure

Regarding Chief Justice John Robert's illness, translating doctorese into English.
  • Seizure ~ A sudden attack or convulsion due to involuntary electrical activity in the brain.
  • Idiopathic ~ Of or relating to a disease having no known cause.
  • Benign ~ Not life-threatening or severe.
Layman's Translation: We don't know what happened to the Chief Justice's brain but it's not important.

    We don't know what happened to the Chief Justice's brain but it's not important.

    Or, as filtered through the Fox News Headline 3000 Translator:

    "Nothing to see here, moving on..."
