palinate

palinate: (v) (pah-lin-ayt) to reduce an entire paragraph to a single rambling, confusing sentence, simply by replacing all transitional phrases with random somewhat related thoughts, and by replacing all punctuation with folksy phrases such as "ya' know". 'Palinate' is similar to 'concatenate', but with loss of meaning or clarity.
