Too much information, left on the printer tray

At least it didn't say something like "I have to leave early today to go to my gynecologist. I took that at home test and it looked like a plus sign, but I want to get the confirmation before you have to tell your wife."

A neologism needs to be invented for office knowledge gathered via printer-tray.

After all, it's a perfectly cromulent way to learn what's happening with your organization and the folks who work there.

My favorite was a male coworker whose female secretary was printing copious amounts of info about sexual harassment. Made for a lot of awkwardness.

"neologism", "cromulent"-- Was this intended to be funny? If not you are terrible.

Brendan, not many people teach me words I don't know. Not many at all. Impressive!

'Neologism' is a word.

'Cromulent' isn't. It was invented by the writers of 'The Simpsons'. In one episode they are looking at a statue of Jedidiah Springfield, and underneath there's an inscription - "Hard work embiggens the spirit." Marge Simpson says "I don't think 'embiggens' is a word." To which someone replies, "Why, it's a perfectly cromulent word!"

So, to make the joke unfunny by explaining it, it's a reflexive joke about what makes for proper language. And, triple irony, 'cromulent' has actually entered the vernacular in the years since that episode aired.

Check Google and/or Wikipedia.

Jokes are a lot like frogs--they both can be dissected, but they tend to die during the process.
