I have noticed a tendency to *over*think ... which sometimes results in a complicated mess of thoughts that are only tangentially related to what I set out to say (often with poor editing and unfinished sentences). I started wondering if I would actually be better off firing off a flippant gut reaction and explaining what I really meant in the event of a misunderstanding.

Welcome to my natural state :) (Unfortunately I often settle on a compromise of multiple under-proofread overlong tangents...)
