Circumlocutory apothegms of exerted divagations
As some of you probably have experienced, some (many? most? all?) NTs can't communicate anything but emotional quasi-information of inconsequential philosophical importance when released into a social setting. Which means all settings by the way, except maybe the setting where they'd sit in a sound proof box on the top of the Baltistan Peak, or the setting in which they're falling toward a black hole doing close to c, for you to enjoy any visually interesting time dilation effects that may occur.
Okay, that may come across as a little harsh... Don't take me wrong, I enjoy the company of NTs, their peculiarities and their sometimes outright comical glances while "figuring me out".
From time to time I need to detach myself from their needy world, however, in order to not go completely banana-crazy. And sometimes I find relaxation by attaching myself to notepad, and can't let go until my train of thought has been produced. And sometimes I even have people read what I have written. Or I interrupt everybody's perpetual struggle for autocratic popularity and read it aloud - just to make them think I'm weird or something... The usual reaction isn't that bad though, because everybody goes back to what they were doing after maybe 0.1 to 3 seconds of indignant looks that nobody can mischaracterize. After all, they're my friends, and I'm excused.
This time, however, I figured I'd post one on WP. It would interest me greatly to get some constructive criticism from the species I consider myself a member of for a change. Please take into consideration that English is, officially, only my second language and I only use German on a day to day basis due to me living in Germany. Norwegian is my first language in case you'd ask.
I try to follow a couple of rules I have defined, first of all to make it really hard for myself to construct anything coherent at all, but also as an attempt to make it a bit more difficult to understand (for added fun at uptight parties).
The rules I use are as follows:
1) Use as few and as long sentences as possible!
2) Minimize flow disruption induced by temporarily leaving a formulation while describing some detail with multiple adverb/adjective-laden sub-sentences within sub-sentences!
3) Use as many rare and exotic words as possible (without abstracting the underlying meaning away completely), but never repeat them! Either find synonyms for them or express the same thing differently. Preferably with more words!
4) If you find insane words somewhere, try to get it into the text!
Here is my latest attempt, be kind!

We represent one of the latest lines of models of this planet's definitely luckiest, self-appointedly smartest, thence very intelligent, yet as effected by our severely demarcated realized capacities, while still trying to accommodate intellectual leeway for supposed rationalization approaches that are surpassing our subjectively acknowledgable abilities that, therefore, cause the solitary comprehension of the proper account needed, to equal uneducated speculation, only to reduce the topic's overall complexity to, figuratively speaking, reach a friendly hand toward future generations of undoubtfully further enhanced configurations, we somehow still manage to draw compelling continuations following that the conclusions we have settled on regarding the inscrutable frequentative affirmations required by the ostensible essentiality, of us actually being able to define ourselves through our individually confined, and by all relevant methodologies, uncommunicable perceptions of belonging to a collective of seemingly conscious biological constructs, built up from plethoras of terribly energy effective microscopic machinery, mechanisms and highly advanced materials, by achievement of billions of years of strenuous evolution amidst trillions of dedicated, competent and ferocious contestants of more or less correlative making, upon finalization incorporating the installation of the latest version of ominously synthetic apprehensions of a counterfeit happiness that fuel the autonomously reiterated perpetual update of shallow and undiscerning opinions through channels of ingeniously devised useful time sinks where we think we're able to share what we're tricked into believing we understand about the procedure to achieve what has never had anything to do with the diametrical opposites of feeling inadequate and unfulfilled anyway, and everything is orchestrated by a few instances of contemporaries of prior technological standards, having an even earlier programming but still carrying the same irrational fears and insecurities that obviously originated with the completely unimaginary logical void.

Constructive feedback very much appreciated!

I think he's a funny guy and I'm sure others do too as well, in small doses. I like obnoxious humor though, especially when it's at an NT's expense.
Perhaps you will appreciate this...
This is what my friend and I did at parties back in the 80's. I wrote some Nokes, or jokes without punchlines.... When the punchline comes up, my buddy would laugh, setting off others to laugh as well. NT's laugh when cued in by others aping the packs response.
It sounded like a punch line but made no rational sense.... it was not a joke. The joke was seeing what nimrods laughed along without understanding it, the point was to see if they laughed.
It was a cheesy long "joke" about some friends driving about and when they get to the gas station the twins in the back say "make it a double". Horrible, and time-wasting it always got someone laughing...usually a group. Monkey see, monkey do.
Afterwards we ask them "You laughed, did you get it?" and enjoy the embarrassment of the NT as they tried to explain why they laughed. Sometimes people got annoyed, sometimes they made us do it to someone else and they helped along by laughing, repeating the cycle.
I think Kens an amusing fellow, perhaps a tad eccentric. Good for him, a lutefisk eating, lederhosen wearing polyglot with a word fetish. I'm sure he makes his workplace a more entertaining work environment.

Thanks for the kind words!
I specifically write my preposterous linguistic amalgamates to thoroughly abrogate all the burgeoning expectations, which people abstractedly compile when provided entertainment, involving introspectively debilitating inclinations toward abecedarian levels of implicated coherence. In other words: It's supposed to be funny.
If only I could keep their attention long enough...

i do not think that sentence warranted the inclusion of comma's. the comma's you used rendered the sentence indistinct in my perception.

Thanks for telling me! That's one of the things I struggle with in English.
EDIT: Congratulations with your 10000th post!!

You should become a bureaucrat. You'd be perfect at writing long-winded proposals, mission statements, and so forth that, once they're translated into human language, mean precisely nothing.

By the way, meaning is directly related to subjective connotations. That is to say, if you remove perception, it follows that the concept of meaning becomes meaningless. Or in plain english: The more you perceive, the more meaning you'll find.
