“It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You cant believe it, you were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember, you try to feel the beat”
— “Eet” (Regina Spektor)
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, that’s my kind of big word

Using big words for the sake of using big words is not smart because then it is just aggravating for others to figure out what is being said.  What is the point of saying something if no one can understand it? That is not effective communication. 

I hate scholarly articles and dense textbooks that seem to take forever to get to the point if the reader can even decipher what is being conveyed. 

This also applies to smart people who try too hard to show how smart they are and normal people who try too hard to pretend to be smart.  Both types of people just end up sounding like asses.

If you are going to use big words and fancy schmancy language, at least do it right.  Shakespearean texts are all about the aggravating deciphering but it always turns out fun.  For example, “upon the gad” means “spur of the moment”.  I think that is fun! Like, what the hell is a gad?  When I first read it, I had no idea what it meant.  It aggravated me.  I deciphered it.  Now I am just anxiously waiting for the next chance I get when it is appropriate for me to use the phrase “spur of the moment” so that I can say “upon the gad” instead.
