I may be wrong, but it's my belief that some people, more often than not, determine something to be long winded not by the content therein, but by the length thereof.
Some statements are long winded, but not all concepts are best conveyed in simple forms.
The use of labels like longwinded and ostentatious are tiring after a while, though some of us can self-deprecate about them.
I think too many people haven't a clue of what long-winded truly is.
I expect several to call this long-winded, which is ok, just so long as they are witty, if not, such answers will truly be a waste of space.
