Baffleufagus

A person or creature who answers a question in the longest possible way with no reference to the actual question being asked. Doing so by using as many Irrelevant multi syllable words to hide their lack of knowledge on the subject being asked about.

Question - What is the weather like in Sydney in summer?

The Baffleufagus replies.. "Well it reminds me of time when a myriad of geese were flying south attempting to hibernate in Antartica in synergy. The sun was shining and the macor economic business was booming and although I couldn't see in front of my eyes I was exploring the temprate afternoon."

Bullshit Baffles Brains

Although the other definitions make sense, I've always associated a different meaning to this term. Bullshit Baffles Brains is a military term, I first heard it in the army thirty years ago. Rather than an attempt to deceive a third party, it is a description of the way the officers (management) and procedures are so filled with unnecessary and pointless bullshit, that they defy all logic and the fact that our glorious leaders had totally bought into that bullshit.

They want use to parade for the combat exercise in our best uniforms and change into our battle gear once we get into the field, talk about bullshit baffles brains.
