frankendocument
An aggregate document that is composed of other documents that shouldn't be included as a single document. This is usually done to satisfy internal politics, and reflects the inefficiency of egos and idiots in businesses and government organizations.
Person 1:
"I don't understand the relationship between pages 1-5 and 6-8; why didn't you create separate documents?"
Person 2:
"Well, John felt like he needed to comment on something, so he is insisting I combine them into this frankendocument."
Person 1:
"But that doesn't make any sense - they are two completely separate subjects."
Person 2:
"I know, but John's an idiot, and the director doesn't seem to realize that, so this is what I was told to do."
