    I need to make sure that everyone understands the context and reasons for every decision and realization made in the story.

      Same.

      I’ve heard a joke among some cat owners to the effect of:

      What’s the optimal number of cats to own?

      One more

      It’s the same way with providing context and details.

      What’s the ideal amount of context to provide?

      More!

    I ever someone says “… wait, or was it Thursday…”, I’m out. The day of the week it was is almost certainly irrelevant and you lost me.

    I don’t like to talk, because I usually wear myself out trying to get to the point…so I know for a fact the person listening is bored or annoyed as well.
