Thesaurusized

A) To use way too many words when just a few will do, thus, meekly, trying to project an image of experience and knowledge where such does not exists, or has been mis-integrated by the user, causing a belief it is quantity which rules, not the quality and directness of the prose or verbal discription, thus generating the stench of verbal or written diarrhea to permeate the area or writing.

When asked to write a one paragraph discription of his favorite class, the student thesaurusized it into a six page tome. The Admission Reader was not pleased.

Thesaurused

To use the thesaurus for every second word in order to make yourself sound smarter or to take up space and make an essay longer.

Teachers see past it very quickly if you are a dumbfuck and can't tell him what half the words in your essay mean, when questioned.

"I thesaurused this essay to death"

"I walked slowly down the street to school" becomes "I sauntered languorously down the boulevard to the establishment of education" (this is overly thesaurused)
