"Term Paper Talkers" UNDER EDIT
As my friend Will calls them. Are infinitly annoying.
Today you will learn why.
I feel it is important to draw a distinct and yet small and grey line between people who talk like a term paper and people who use big words and shouldn't.
On the note of Big Worders:
I understand that everyone wants to be regarded as a well read and highly intelligent and intelligable individual. Using big words does not help get you there. You may know the word. You may know the meaning, and the use but that doesn't mean you know how to use it properly.
Big words can often be misused. Throwing too many into a sentence improperly makes you seem like an ass, not like a easily respected individual. When all is said and done and you leave everyone is making fun of you or at least commenting on how stupid you sounded. Just like with anything else the best policy here is to blend big and small words together.. to make functional sentences. Sometimes it's easier to use a large word because it can carry a more specific and neccesary meaning to a sentence, phrase or even a conversation. Other times that same large word just makes you seem like you're doing it so you can show someone else up or seem smarter.
Using a Big word when you shouldn't:
Example 1: If you aren't a doctor using the term " I'm as serious as a near-fatal Cardiac Infarction" makes you look like a raging douche. Just say Heart Attack.
Using too many big words when a smaller phrase will do :
Example 2:
Person A: You need to explain about interactions with or involving talking to Soa in manners that specify how i am or am not - feeling based on assumptions due to my general feelings or expressed concerns to people I was believed to be able to - - confide in which were detrimental to the fragile trust I attempt to build with my ex.
Person B: that seemed wordier than it needed to be.
Person A: you said specify. I decided to try not to leave anything out.
Person A: besides...being more lengthy really allows me to focus and prevent blurting out stupid statements and otherwise profanity.
In this specific example being wordy does not allow you to do anything but seem stupid. That entire phrase could have been boiled down to "Did you do _____" Person B is actually thinking "WTF" and the lame excuse provided by Person A in response to that WTF makes him seem even more foolish in the long run.
Using large words does not aid in the thinking before speaking process. That is still required for forming sentences that make sense and that can properly get your meaning across. Short and Big words don't do that alone, that's entirely you as a speaker or writer. Now being able to successfuly use big words is a skill, not one that you're born with but one you can learn to aquire and even still grow to appreciate when you use and see it.
Big Word Talking is also situation specific. If you are confronting someone about something speaking to them in an asnine way doesnt help your case or incline them to be honest or forthcoming with you.
Example 3: Dumb it down already.
Person A: I was simply inquriing as to the whereabouts of your person last night, if you would be so kind as to be forthcoming with me then I could decide whether or not my ire is properly placed.
Person B: Fuck off
Now thats not actually what Person B would say.. unless person B was me, in which case it's exactly what person B would say. What person A should have said was.. "Hey, did you do _______," Any large senetence can be "dumbed down" for lakc of a better phrase, doing this doesn't make you seem stupid or unintelligent it just means you have a knack for knowing when to speak casually and not like you have a raging rose bush branch up your rear end.
On the note of term paper talkers. These are people i Hate the most.
Example 4: Just Say Hello Dammit
On aim:
Liz: Hey, long time to talk what's up?
Ego Matt: Greetings and Salutations Elizabeth, indeed a lengthy amount of time has transpired since last we made aquaintence. I do hope that the world has treated you well in my abcense. How do you fair these days?
Liz: Dude, just fucking say hello like a normal human being. Christ Almighty.
NOTE: I'll be completing this post over the next day, I have to go to bed and get up in four hours. Sorry bout that folks.
