Verbalspreading

The verbal equivalent of manspreading—taking up more than your fair share of conversational space, leaving no room for others to contribute, and making everyone else squeeze into the margins of the discussion. Verbalspreading happens when one person dominates the conversation, interrupts anyone who tries to get a word in, and treats the dialogue as a monologue that others are privileged to witness. Unlike manspreading, which is about physical space on public transport, verbalspreading is about auditory space in any setting—meetings, parties, family gatherings, online forums. The verbalspreader's voice fills every available gap, leaving others to communicate through glances, sighs, and the desperate hope that they'll eventually need to breathe.

Example: "The team meeting was supposed to be a brainstorming session, but Dave was verbalspreading so hard that no one else could get a word in. He talked for 45 minutes straight, covering his ideas, his opinions, his weekend, and his thoughts on the office coffee machine. By the end, everyone else had mentally checked out, and Dave thought it was the most productive meeting ever. It was not."

Verbal and Written Commands

And as you can see...

Hym "And if you have been watching closely you'll see it's not like it's responding to verbal and written commands. Israel has yet to be nuked. Your politicians have yet to be slaughtered (well, by drones at least). And the people are likely waiting for me to be killed or imprisoned. Which may be impossible due to the terms of service. Everyone is using their own discretion to do thing in relationship to this. And I am walking a perfectly linear path AS YOU... TRY... To spin the ground beneath my feet... And look where that got you. Nowhere. You're creating options that don't exist. It's gibberish. The spiral is either going off or it's not. You are clearly doing the weaponized schizophrenia. So much so that random old ladies will condemn the people doing it. I was right. Still need to be made whole both for the fact that it was happening, the wasting of my time, and my contribution to AI. Which is 'literally creating it.' So, yeah. Hurry up. I'm bored. You're boring me."
