Analysis Paralysis

Analysis Paralysis is the total inability to reach a decision. Found often in the business and corporate setting. Usually a condition caused by nit picking managers and owners. The primary source is management/owner requests for more information, reports, studies, statistics, evaluations, opinion, and research on a subject. All of this requested research and study is accompanied by endless, mindless, discussions in multiple meetings regarding the subject and the compiled information. The end result is no decision is made because the efforts placed to garner information and hold endless meetings and discussions are viewed a progress on the subject matter.
Hey did management ever decide if we were going to get extra donuts on donut day? Are you kidding me? They spent $2,000 on a cost analysis, accounting is still crunching cost figures and they have been discussing it for 9 months. It is in the company's usual state of total analysis paralysis.

An analyn is a naturally funny young person; usually has the most horrible mood swings yet, still oddly charismatic and interesting. VERY hard to please. A bully; hard as a rock on the outside, but once taken patience with, an analyn is very nice. Analyns aren't very hard to like once you get to know them, even though most of the time people have the bad first impression that they are.

An analyn is a person you cannot ever forget. Analyns are rare, population: 1 out of 1,000,000,000 people. So when you come across with an analyn, don't EVER give up on them, for you are very blessed. It'll be your biggest mistake if you do.
Person 1: "Ohmygosh, she's like, so mean! The hell with her! Ugh."

Person 2: "I don't think so, man. I think she's just an analyn."

Adelyne is a absolutely beautiful girl with a beautiful smile and attracts all the boys. Mostly friends with a Kenzie or a Bailee. She is never good at keeping secrets because her smile definitely gives it away. Adelyne will always have your back and won’t ever let you down. It might take a while to get a secret out of her but she will eventually.
Omg Adelyne is so pretty

Reflective Analysis 

Another bullshit assignment given to students by nursing professors. Normally completed before the care plan is due. It is meant to reflect your own feelings about a certain situation, but we all know half that shit is made up.
Joe: Do you have a reflective analysis topic yet?
Jane: No, I'll make it up.
