Why yes, I think I rather like it a lot. I like short and straight to the point answers as a standard. I tend to actually talk that way to people, unless they tell me something I find interesting enough to go into further discourse. I am a rather antisocial person, and as a rule I tend to avoid people and their possible reasons to hold a conversation. I don't talk to people I don't know very well, unless it's to answer them in monosyllabic grunts. But when I write...that is when my vocabulary, garnered from years of voracious reading, seems to be exercised to the point of morbid exhaustion.

Call me weird, I'd probably feel flattered, but I liked having to answer essay questions in school too. One to two sentence answers seemed inadequate to me. Mine were usually one to two paragraphs, or sometimes even a page or two, just to make sure there could be no confusion or misconception in what my opinions were. If I bothered to state my point, I felt I had to state it clearly and with as many reasons as I could think of to justify it. So yeah, I tend to be ridiculously verbose when writing anything, and probably infuriatingly abrupt or curt even when actually speaking. But, that is how I like for people to answer me, concise, succinct...at all even works too.
