The Perils of Being Overfastidious

Overfastidious is an adjective used to describe someone who is excessively meticulous or obsessive about details. It can also refer to something that is excessively or needlessly complex, fussy, or finicky.

For example:

* "She's so overfastidious about her work that she spends hours agonizing over every little detail."
* "The new policy is overfastidious and makes it impossible to get anything done efficiently."

In both cases, the person or thing being described is excessively concerned with details, to the point where it becomes a hindrance or an obstacle.

The word "overfastidious" is a play on the word "fastidious," which means "meticulous" or "picky." By adding "over-," the word takes on a negative connotation, implying that someone or something is too picky or excessively concerned with details.
