Good Writing Advice: Be Not Verbose

Verbosity: Too Many Verbs?

Never write things down on paper - or on other stuff, like cardboard boxes, for instance, or on rocks or in the sand, or even on computer screens - in a very verbose sort of way that wastes the time of readers, who probably have a lot of better things to do in order to occupy their time, but you, instead, you, rather, you yourself should be extremely concise in all of the written words that you scatter across a page, or that, rather, you scatter across the surfaces of any of the other stuff mentioned above, because a lot of people don't like to take advice, not even from reputable sources, since even the reputable sources, like me (but trust me), can be corrupted or lose focus and forget the issue under consideration, which was (I think) something about the necessity of being ridiculously articulate.

I tried to get your point. Unfortunately it put me to sleep, and so I never understood what you said.
