Blowhards and Windbags
Ok - so I've just been tortured for 2 + hours in a meeting that leaves me with the question about blowhards and windbags...
For defining purposes:
Windbag: n. A talkative person who communicates nothing of substance or interest.
n : a boring person who talks a great deal about uninteresting topics
Blowhard: n : a very boastful and talkative person
n. A boaster or braggart
(I was pretty impressed to find both words in the dictionary)
So my question is... Do windbags and blowhards realize that they are windbags and blowhards? Or do they think they are gods gift to communication? Perhaps they realize this and choose to not care about their fellow man and just want to talk....(To that i say - get a plant)
What sayeth you?
Are you either a blowhard or a windbag? Personally? I don't have enough confidence in myself to be a blowhard - but I know I fall into the windbagginess category often..
