Dyscourse
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia.
Dyscourse can be distinguished from discourse because dyscourse is painful and difficult. (Same prefix root as dysfunction, dystopia, and wombat.)
[edit] Use
Any time a discussion becomes painful to hear or read, and painful to speak or write, the discourse has become dyscourse. Niels Bohr was a master of dyscourse, first enmeshing his opponents in mazes of brain-aching digression and then destroying them with his 9 mm quantum submachine gun.
[edit] Examples
| Ask not -- or if you do ask, then I am obliged to mention (not that you -- as a person) -- want more than you cannot do for your country, or, if you are not only not a citizen of our great nation or any great nation like ours which asks you not to ask -- or if you do ask, then the nation is obliged to mention -- as a person, not a nation -- what you might want, more, than you cannot do for your person (as opposed to a nation) -- than you can do in the privacy of your own bathroom. |
- -- John F. Kennedy, later rewritten by Bertram H. Flytickle as "Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country."
