A adjective that sounds like a complement(ex. "poetic," "prose"), but, in actuality, is derogatory, meaning dry, verbose, boring, long, slow, or drawn-out. As such, it is a wonderful way to insult someone to their face; even if they do know what it means, they will often excuse you for it, thinking that you thought it meant something good.
Person: Hey, what do you think of my Harry Potter Sexual Fanfic?

Me: *Washing eyes out* It's very, um, prosaic!

Person: Oh, why thank you! I'll go submit this to a publisher!

Me: *Snickers evilly.*

Prosaic-ideas 

Ideas that normally appear in our brain in prosaic forms i.e. without any metrical composition.
We can say that “thinking is translating ‘prosaic-ideas’ without accessories” since ideas (in brain) do not follow any metrical composition.

prosaic prostoon

pro·sa·ic pros·toon compound expression — satirical lexicon / literary-theory jargon / creative-writing neologism
1. Literary-theory jargon: Term used in critical discourse to classify artistic or narrative segments whose structural banality (prosaic) converges with the aesthetic stagnation characteristic of a prostoon. Identifies works that exhibit technical adequacy yet fail to generate emotional resonance, thematic tension, or conceptual novelty.
2. Satirical lexicon: Ironically deployed label for any creative output—scene, paragraph, performance, or idea—that aspires to significance but collapses into predictable tropes, mechanical repetition, or hollow seriousness. Often used to mock works that mistake verbosity for depth or formula for craft.
3. Creative-writing neologism: A coined expression describing the hybrid state of a text or scene that is doubly dull: mundane in execution and inert in intention. Serves as a stylistic device for writers who wish to critique mediocrity with a touch of playful erudition.
Etymology: Contemporary hybrid formation blending the English adjective prosaic with the invented critical noun prostoon. Originates within satirical aesthetic commentary and has since been adopted in experimental literary contexts.
“The director dismissed the scene as a prosaic prostoon, unable to sustain the emotional impact promised by the narrative.”
