Rattle Trap Tucker

A Rattle-Trap Tucker is a colloquial term for an individual who is incessantly talkative, possessing a seemingly bottomless reservoir of things to say. They are the person who "starts talking before they’ve finished waking up" and rarely stops for air. Key Characteristics
• Zero "Off" Switch: They can turn a two-minute update into a forty-minute monologue without breaking a sweat.
• Topic Jumping: They often possess the ability to jump from 18th-century architecture to their favorite brand of cereal in a single, uninterrupted breath.
• Background Noise: In a social setting, their voice often becomes the "ambient soundtrack" of the room.
High Velocity: Like a literal "rattle-trap" (an old, clattering vehicle), their speech is often fast-paced, noisy, and constant.
I tried to grab a quick coffee with Jamie, but she’s a total Rattle-Trap Tucker. I went in for a 'hello' and came out three hours later knowing her entire family tree and his thoughts on the 1994 tax code.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
