The Art of Driveling: How to Talk (or Write) Endlessly Without Saying Anything of Value
A "driveler" is a person who talks or writes at great length, but says little of any real substance or value. The term is often used to describe someone who rambles on about trivial matters, or who speaks in a way that is overly flowery or pretentious.
For example, if someone is going on and on about a topic that is not particularly interesting or important, you might say "Oh, stop driveling on about that and get to the point already!" or "I can't listen to this drivel any longer, it's driving me crazy!"
The word "drivel" itself has a somewhat negative connotation, implying that the person's speech or writing is empty, pointless, or nonsensical. So, to call someone a "driveler" is not exactly a compliment!
