shaggy-dog story
Definition
(Noun) A long-winded and only-mildly amusing story that gets its humor from the verbosity and pointlessness of the "joke."Usage: I can't give you examples of shaggy-dog stories because the WHOLE IDEA is to go on and on - at the end of which the listener rolls his/her eyes.
