This noun is a compliment to the person it describes since a raconteur is known for relating stories well. Example: "Michael is always welcome at parties because he is such a witty raconteur." Raconteur was taken from the French verb raconter (to relate) in the 1800s. …

Its been such a blur lately. Not much interesting stuffs. Everything is going slow… very slow. No news on the work promised. Reading bash, playing DotA. Argh, tension.
