Get the Komi Can’t Communicate mug.A failure to communicate occurs when the lines-of-communication are so broken down that you might as well be attempting to convey information not by means of the spoken word, but rather by some obscure and arcane non-verbal dialect comprised solely of farts and tap dancing.
'The story . . . was entitled "The Dancing Fool." Like so many Kilgore Trout stories, it was about a tragic failure to communicate.
'Here was the plot: A flying saucer creature named Zog arrived on Earth to explain how wars could be prevented and how cancer could be cured. He brought the information from Margo, a planet where the natives conversed by means of farts and tap dancing.
'Zog landed at night in Connecticut. He had no sooner touched down than he saw a house on fire. He rushed into the house, farting and tap dancing, warning the people about the terrible danger they were in. The head of the house brained Zog with a golfclub.'
-- From Kurt Vonnegut's 1973 novel "Breakfast of Champions" -- Chapter 5 (page 58).

Get the failure to communicate mug.Related Words
Unlike genuine communication, where an element of desire to transfer unbiased information or fact can fundamentally exist, communicatering refers exclusively to the subversive generation of biased information (catering, e.g. charming) with a strict intention to influence consumer, popular, institutional or individual opinion for the purpose of the beneficial gain to group or organization initiating such rhetoric. Communicatering, by virtue of its intention and the necessity of its intended efficacy, is almost always disguised as righteousness, prudence, wisdom, innocent concern, temperance, justice, or at worst, Science.
Politicians, bankers, the rich, even a simple blog like Brainbooger.com, they seldom utter a genuine or sincere word, instead they're communicatering, disguising a secret contempt that comes from an ultimate belief that all men are NOT created equal, and that a good line of bullshit is what’s needed to keep the animals off the dinner table.

Get the Communicatering mug.To communicate is to express oneself to another, so that the recipient agrees, ACTS on the agreement and improves the universe. It doesn't mean to talk, or to say something and the hearer says yes or no. She/He/It must respond positively and do something to get us out of the cancerous cycle we are in. It is interesting to note that this is the first entry in the Urban Dictionary for this word. If there were any communication, the world would not be as it is. Anyone who has anything to communicate is executed, imprisoned, institutionalized, or marginalized. This is the system that keeps those in power to stay in power.
If you feel you have something to communicate please add to the definition; maybe we can escape the cave of plato, and the world can change.
