"The AL syndrome" is a workplace phenomenon characterized by individuals employing ostentatious language and intricate terminology to mask their lack of understanding or proficiency. This behavior is motivated by a desire to bewilder listeners, creating the illusion of competence while concealing a genuine deficiency in knowledge or skills. It often manifests in verbose, convoluted communication that serves to obfuscate rather than clarify. This tactic can be detrimental to effective collaboration and hinder productivity within a professional environment.

A disorder of the brain characterized by the inability to hear a song without being able to hear the Weird Al version's lyrics over the music.
I was listening to Coolio's Gangstas Paradise, and all I could hear was Amish Paradise. I must have Weird Al Syndrome.

After someone has their stomach stapled, every other part of the body loses weight, except the head. The person's head will not have changed with the rest of the body and still look fat. Much like Al Roker's head looks right now.
