In a word? Prolix. That said, the question omits an important detail (
Watch me confirm the definition!): style at
what?Writing? Chatting (both verbally and
electronically)? Yes, I'm wordy, verbose, loquacious, flowery - or alternatively, literate, articulate, fluent, eloquent. I'm one of those people who continually drops four-syllable words and is surprised if you don't know them. (I'm often also
the guy who explains the punchline to the joke-teller.)
However,
leading? Very different - I tend to be direct, forceful, arrogant, dictatorial. (I temper the negative when I can, though.) More interestingly, perhaps, I both delegate leadership habitually and make sure that I, myself, am also doing a fair share of the actual work. Not even always the
fun work, either - for example, when building fires in the Scout troop, I'd rather assign an experienced second to help a new Scout and go gather wood. Seriously - works much better. (Also leaves me feeling less guilty.)
Computer programming? Heavily commented and (wherever possible) parameterized. (Tell me to write a program to solve a physics problem, and
every datum - mass, length, Young's modulus - number of sections in calculation mesh - will be defined as a variable in the first section of code.) Music? Precise in pitch and note-value, with expressive control of tempo, articulation, and volume. (Well, 'precise' might be stretching it, given my sloppiness of execution.) Alternatively, pop/rock (tending towards soft rock, with exceptions), folk (and folk-rock, folk-pop, anti-folk, ...), ragtime (e.g.
Joplin,
Lamb,
Bolcom), and most 'classical' music in the European tradition, excepting much of the atonal and postmodern movements therein. (I like much of the Bollywood music that my mom and sister listen to, but it's not what I reach for when I put on a record.)
Oh, and fashion?
