Ken Burns Treatment

The act of analyzing or describing an event or series of events in a way that takes much longer than the actual event itself.
"I wish Wendi would get over her break-up with Matt already!"
"How long has it been?"
"Three months, and its all she thinks about! I mean fuck! They only went out for a week."
"Oh no! She's giving it the Ken Burns Treatment. Someone should just run over her with a truck!!"
