Verbal Waterboarding

When one verbally complains, corrects or simply makes a point over and over again. The verbal repetitiveness on the side of the receiver can feel like drowning. Especially after an apology or solution has been articulated.
After Terry offered a solution to the problem, Benny couldn’t stop complaining about the problem over and over again. She said it felt he was dumping buckets of words over her head, it was like verbal waterboarding. She added he has 2 ears and 1 mouth…he should use them proportionally.
