Analalysis

a-nal-a-y-sis - The analysis of a problem made by someone who thinks they know what the problem is, is sure how to resolve and demands the problem be solved using their resolution. Thus, the person making the analalysis appears to be knowledgable and important.

But because you've resolved this issue before, you know they're wrong.

Resolving the software issue took a little longer then normal 'cause I had to deal with the my boss' analalysis.

Real Analysis

High school calculus done right™️

As a well-established branch of pure mathematics, real analysis is known for being notoriously hard. This is due to hoardes of ill-prepared students not realizing that they've only studied baby mathematics previously.

Charles: Man, I thought calculus in high school was legit until I studied real analysis for the first time.
James: Yeah, it's the point in my life where I understood that my analysis of math just got real.

applied critical analysis

Some new phrase PDEng administration decided to coin together in the hopes that the prospective students will consider the program a useful feature that teaches a complicated worded concept.

Widely confusing innocent students with its meaninglessness as no employer in the entire globe has never heard of the term.

A reason why U of Waterloo co-op rate is going downhill on a term-by-term basis, since companies regard its students as the new "Pennsylvania Dutch" who talk in their own "PDeng Speak." Now who's fault is that?

See Bukkake for details.

"wtf is applied critical analysis anyways? I googled it and the first result was PDEng. Think you're so innovative because you're inventing new phrases?"

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.

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.
