n. (v. Verbally masturbating)  Describes a person using (or trying but fails) extremely flamboyant, overelaborate, pendantic, overembellished, pompus, language seasoned with a lot of jargon from a certain discipline, sometimes to the extent that it has to be translated or deciphered to be intelligible for the common man; done with the unnecessary need to be meticulously accurate when communicating completely mundane things. May be done with the intent of making others feel inferior…and/or himself superior, part of role-playing, humour, being an idiot, (trying to) showing off how smart you are, and as mentioned an unnecessary need to be meticulously accurate. The true verbal masturbators are the pretentious ones who try but utterly fail because they use words they do not understand and use words across a jargon (inconsistency). Verbal masturbation may or may not appear redundant; however the redundancy is from the choice of words used and not necessarily by its meaning. Additionally, some may feel others are verbally masturbating but do so wrongfully because the situation requires being meticulously accurate  Non exhaustive examples of jargon used are:   Scientific: (star trek, professor Frink from The Simpson’s),  Forensic: (CSI, Sherlock Holmes),  Arcane: (old language, medieval, lord of the rings, star wars),  Prose/poetic: (rhymes, poetic symbolic uses etc. of language usually belonging to the literature world) dictionary: (sounding like one…) Leet (1337): sounding like a nerd/geek
