You know how when you have a co-worker who when they start talking they talk fast and a lot but use almost no precise language so they're trying to explain something work-related that you need to do and you have no ****ing idea what they're talking about and they keep repeating themselves by saying the same vague nonsense over and over again and you're within five seconds of screaming in their face, "STOP!!! Slow the **** down and say anything that isn't what you're currently saying!!!"?

I'm a little guilty of this.

Most of the stuff I say to my boss goes over his head but it's mostly because I just kind of "stream of consciousness" things based on a context I understand, but fail to consider the other side of it.

Here's an example:

Boss: "Hey, thanks for getting that client sorted out!"

Me: "No prob. Wasn't too bad because I just modified the JSP with a <c:choose> block to check the organization variable to see if the specific client was clicking the referral form so I could show the custom fields, but just so you're aware, this is only scaleable to an extent. We can keep modding the JSP but at some point we need a real solution from the app developers for client-specific requirements, as this can get out of hand. But hey, I documented the changes and we can do "now" solutions for the foreseeable future until the cows come home, but do get on the horn with the third party at some point because what I'm doing isn't even in my job description."

Vampires are not required to have a job since the Fairness to the Undead Act was passed. You're good.

Coworker: They use pig skin genes in GMO tomatoes, and that's why the tomato skins are so thick and hard to cut through these days and that's why they last longer than plastic.

Yuppies are so ****ing stupid.
