# man explaining whiteboard — Meme Lab

Use when a simple question triggers a sprawling, overcomplicated explanation.

- What it expresses: The speaker expands a narrow prompt into an unsolicited lecture with excessive detail.
- Example: You ask why the meeting moved by ten minutes and receive a diagram of the entire scheduling system, so you post this.
- When not to use it: A specialist explains a genuinely complex risk because the listener requested the details; length is justified by the task.
