paragiraffe

A paragiraffe is longer than your average paragraph, and is slightly shorter than an essay. It is technically just a reallly tall paragraph, hence the inclusion of the word 'giraffe'.

Mr. Ephram was indecisive as to whether he wanted his students to write short answers or full out essays on our exams, so he decided to invent an in between option called the paragiraffe.

Paragiraffe

Someone who writes a very long definition on Urban Dictionary expecting someone to read the whole thing and vote for it; a paragraph as long as a giraffe's neck.

I don't feel like voting because this definition isn't simplified. This guy must be a paragiraffe!

Pararaffe 

A paraplegic giraffe. Most pararaffe cases have both front limbs missing. They tend to fall over easily. When their back limbs are missing, they are very fast sprinters. There have been no reported cases of pararaffes having one front and one back limb.

Tourist: why does that giraffe keep falling face first in the dirt everytime it gets up?

Safari Guide: No, no, no m'am. That's a pararaffe. It is all explained on page 13 of the guide book.

paragaffe 

The social offense of wasting people’s time by blathering on for a whole paragraph when a short sentence would suffice.

“All I wanted to know was whether Bottom is still smoking. He wrote back a whole paragaffe about why it’s none of my business and smoking is not a problem for him.”
