Rapid-Fire Descriptors | comment |
A character or a thing or an activity or a concept (anything really) is described using tons of adjectives or adverbs in one very long sentence that can be run-on in extreme cases. Hyphenated descriptors are often used to deliberately stretch the length. Related to Purple Prose, but the former incorporates many more writing tropes (such as Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness) and doesn't always use this one. Sometimes it overlaps with Flowery Insults. This trope is very often linked to exasperation, and characters speak in this way to relieve their stress and vent their frustration. Some of the adjectives or adverbs may be uttered in Angrish. Some of them may be Perfectly Cromulent Words. Large-Ham Announcer is likely to heap adjectives one after another and describe contestants with flowery epithets in this manner, too. May also happen with a Motor Mouth, for more emphasis on the "rapid-fire" side of things. Often Played for Laughs. Compare Try to Fit That on a Business Card. |

Community: "Biology 101": Jeff described Pierce being kicked out of their study group as parting ways with their "closest, oldest, craziest, most racist, oldest, elderly, crazy friend". "Basic Crisis Room Decorum": Annie loses it after their emergency meeting. The group pulled an all-nighter, trying to avert a crisis of a negative ad that their arch-enemy rival school wants to run against them. Most of those descriptors make sense in context. "Wedding Videography": Frankie starts heaping adjectives when she tells Abed about stuff from her childhood/teenage years. Abed's filming their preparing to go to Garrett's wedding: |

Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Dingo, the maiden from Castle Anthrax, gets "angry" with her identical sister Zoot for lighting up their grail-shaped beacon and luring Sir Galahad into their castle. She calls her "Bad, bad Zoot! Oh, wicked, bad, naughty Zoot! Oh, wicked, bad, naughty, evil Zoot!" She says she's a bad person who must pay the penalty! Which is spanking. All the maidens want a spanking. And after the spanking, the oral sex. | |

The song "There!

If they can prove that Nikos is gay, they'll invalidate his claim that he was having an affair with Brooke, and damage the prosecution's argument that Brooke murdered her husband because she was unfaithful: | |

Becoming Jane: Young Jane Austen uses the Purple Prose version of the trope in her piece written for her sister and read in her family. It's called "Advice from a young lady on the engagement of her beloved sister Cassandra". Angered Jane writes about Tom Lefroy to her sister Cassandra as a reaction to a friend's advice: "Careful, Jane, Lucy is right. Mr Lefroy does have a reputation." — "Presumably as the most disagreeable, insolent, arrogant, impudent, insufferable, impertinent of men." Lampshaded. She then says to herself that that's too many adjectives and she cuts some of them with scissors from the letter. |

Fleabag: Fleabag uses this pattern sometimes when she talks to other people or when breaks the fourth wall and talks to us, the viewers. Describing herself in a humorous self-deprecation combined with genuine self-loathing: "I have a horrible feeling that I'm a greedy, perverted, selfish, apathetic, cynical, depraved, morally bankrupt woman who can't even call herself a feminist." (To which her father replies that she gets all that from her mother.)
