I'm thinking of the episode of That '70s Show where Kelso's dad is trying to explain to Kelso what he does for a homework assignment.

Kelso: "OK, let's get started. Question number one, what's your job?"

John: "I'm a senior executive statistical analysis technician."

Kelso: "You're a senior execu… what?"

John: "Well, in plain English, I concatenate the verse statistical information to maximize the potential utilization of data."

Kelso: "So you give people data!"

( Kelso is on the verge of writing it down. )

John: "A lot of people think that. No. My job's not about output, it's about throughput."

Kelso: "So you throughput data!"

John: "Well, now you've lost me, son. Oh, listen Michael, you know the eight tracks you love so much?"

Kelso: "You make them!"

John: "No, but because of us, other people who make them are able to make them better."

Kelso: "So, you fix stuff!"

John: "You could say that..."

( Kelso starts writing. )

John: "But I wouldn't."

( Kelso erases it with frustration. )

And then it keeps going on the like for a while.
