Long, complicated, unnecessary and obvious words, repetition, double negatives, runaround, and even illogical expressions are prolix expressions which saturate conversations, poetry, fiction, lyrics, and comedy, and perpetuate a vicious cycle which makes everyone feel, think, and act, then speak, write and live unconcisely.

Get the unconciselymug. An individual who repeats an error.
My Mother made me realize that there are people who continually repeat an action they were informed, know, and should remember is an error. They might repeat an error because they forgot it was wrong to do it, or due to some other mental incapacity. I realized she was an “error-repeater”, but that that term is new, so I decided to submitted it to this excellent website that is increasing the body of knowledge and improving everything.

Get the error-repeatermug. Two or more stupid individuals that are alive, but “stupids” could include the stupid individuals who have passed away.
The quantity of people who often do stupid things, compared to the quantity of people who do not do stupid things, or do them rarely, is growing.
Though probably everyone wishes there were very few or preferably no stupid people, confronted by their presence (which in some ways often emanates their stupidity), and sometimes injured mentally or physically by their stupid actions, we all need to give that group of people a name to help everyone deal with the growing number of what I compassionately call “stupids.”
I wrote, “compassionately,” because it is wise to never blame someone for doing stupid things, because God probably did not give them the amount of intelligence a person needs to use to differentiate a stupid thing or action from one that is not stupid.

Get the stupidsmug. A conversation one engages in with oneself in a way which resembles the way one converses with oneself or with a different individual, only this type of self-conversation takes place in the present but with a recording of one's words made in the past.
To participate in an asynchronous self-conversation one needs to listen to an audio recording of things one said in the past, and can either speak to the individual speaking in the recording acknowledging that one is speaking to oneself, or pretend one is speaking to someone other than oneself. Asynchronous self-conversations work surprisingly well and can be enlightening because as time progresses every individual changes. Therefore, at 12:00 P.M. (noon) no one is thinking or feeling the same things they were thinking and feeling at 11:59 A.M. ( one-minute ago ). Listening to a recording of a word one said is a type of Asynchroneous Self-Conversation.

Get the Asynchronous Self-Conversationmug. Individuals are not always sufficiently relaxed to take a shit ( to have a bowel movement ), they are not always in the shitting mode. When something or someone frightens a person, they enter the flight or fight mode and their body will not want to or be able to get rid of the solid waste until they have relaxed sufficiently to do so. Being relaxed is the key to being in the shitting mode. Hey, that calls to mind the fucking mode, the farting mode, the whatever mode, the thinking mode. Each mode is strictly dependent on a specific set of conditions.
