A person who is ashamed to admit he/she has no knowledge about a question asked so tries to hide his/her ignorance by inanely prattling on, dancing around the obvious and useful answer; "I don't know", which would allow you to get on with your day, i.e. go find someone who knows what the hell they are talking about.
You: Good Lord! My ignorant boss just refuses to say "I DON"T KNOW" so I had to stand there listening to his worthless bullshit for ten minutes. Finally I just walked away and left him jibber jabbering away. He's probably still talking for all I know.
Sympathetic coworker: Yep, he's a windbag alright. By the way, I overheard your question and the answer is yes.
You: Thanks.

an officer, usually a major or above, who stands on a stage/podium during a briefing, ceremony, or just stops by your shop unannounced and tells you how dumb you are and how great they are. if you listen to them at all, you might hear something about drinking and driving or motorcycle safety.

(noun) Any person who makes long, rambling, repetitive speeches, by speaking as fast as possible without ever pausing except to take a breath, thus effectively "filling up the windbag."
"I had this customer on the phone just now, I've never heard a windbag like that in my life. I think they must have been out of breath by the time they finished talking."

A British person. Especially a British politician. However, they are STYLISH windbags, as opposed to American windbag politicians, who are mostly just dumb-ass windbags.

The vet removed Lenny's nuts, but the leg humping hasn't stopped. He was windbagging Dave yesterday.
