Digressors: A quick definition? Is any definition quick? When defining the genius of the "But I Digress" page, one can only refer back to an official definition before continuing.
di·gress Pronunciation: dI-'gres. to turn aside especially from the main subject of attention or course of argument synonym see SWERVE As you can see, to "digress" means "to swerve". In a sentence, we can then say: "If I drank too much pear syrup, the sweetness may cause me to drive badly, and 'digress' the car". When is the proper time to digress? When is too much digression, "too much digression"? Can we really expect to find the answers here? You can expect to find much in the way of digression. And in many forms does it come! Songs! Conversations! Stories that go nowhere and everywhere all at once! You'll find it all here, and yet, you'll find nothing. Signed, Digressor |
