Redundant

Adj.- Repeated over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, degrading your mental capacity until it resembles a piece of shit.



Redundant
A 6'6" person saying they were something other than tall as a kid is like a black guy saying he was white until he turned 18. What else could you have been even if you tried?
Example:
People would know a 6'6" person was always tall for their age as a kid without them having to explain it, the same way they would know a 4'10" person was always short for their age, even as a kid (unless they are one of those rare Guinness record books folks), so explaining it would be redundant.


redundant
Excessive, unnecessary, superfluous (exceeding what is necessary). Perhaps the opposite of oxymoronic (a juxtaposition of two seemingly contradictory meanings).
Example:
Just a few redundant phrases:

ATM Machine ("Automatic Teller Machine Machine")
Greenwich Village ("Green Village Village")
PIN Number ("Personal Identification Number Number")
cute dog/ cute cat
Catholic Pope
an added bonus
over-exaggerate
false pretense
completely surrounded
and etc
unconfirmed rumors
HIV Virus ("Human Immunodeficiency Virus Virus")
preplan
preheat
prerecord
La Brea Tar Pits ("The the tar pits tar pits")
lukewarm ("warm warm")
written manuscript


redundant
see "redundant"
Example:


redunditis
A chronic deficiency of employment prospects in your current job, resulting in heightened levels of not giving a fuck and responding to everything with extra spice and / or snippines
Example:
Poor Ben has got a severe case of redunditis....you should have seen his email response to Jennifer. He's being a real cunt to everyone lately


redundancy
A set of words in common usage that includes a needless modifier. Not to be confused with an oxymoron (where two terms of the same phrase literally contradict each other) or euphamism (a phrase used to change the emotional charge of a a word or phrase).
Example:
Examples of actual redundancies:

- ATM machine ("Automatic teller machine machine"? Just say "ATM".)
- PIN number ("Personal identification number number"?)
- "Call now for your FREE GIFT!" (well of course it's free, otherwise it wouldn't be a gift!)
- end result
- bare naked
- past experience


Redundancy
A complete and utter result where you get to leave your mundane job behind and 'focus on your career' (that's find another McJob to normal people) with the added bonus of a payout not to do the job you hate any more.

Officially, there's a selection pool but it'll generally be determined by how pissed off your manager is with you when 'efficiency savings' (that's lay offs to us normal people) need to be made.

The best modern use of the phrase 'crying all the way to the bank'.
Example:
Employee is called into a room:

Manager: Profits have fallen and we need to make some efficiency savings. Unfortunately (this is shit, your boss doesnt give a fuck about you) your post has been selected for redundancy.

Employee: Oh no. This is terrible news.

Will you pay my notice in lieu?

Manager: Yes

Employee: What's the payout?

Manager: A month for every year of service. You'll get £20,000 tax free.

Employee finds another job and has a pile of cash in their account.
