monologuing 

The present tense/active form of monologued. The act of delivering an involved stream-of-consciousness exposition or explanation, usually in an overly dramatic fashion, that completely halts the conversation. Like in a book or movie where the action screeches to a halt so the character can stand and deliver a huge load of backstory or explanation. Not always TMI or a rant, although those can be forms of monologuing.
Man, she just started monologuing and it was all over.

When your mother or mother-in-law calls to talk about everything and nothing at the same time. You have no hope of ever contributing to said conversation, and this tends to last for hours at a time.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
