I want to convey all of the context to my yes/no answers first, but people get frustrated because they just want the answer

I was gonna make a different meme about how godly I feel when I can respond to an open-ended question with yes/no but it just didn’t come together and then I thought of this instead

    People like you are so hard to listen to. So often my brain just shuts off if I ask a simple question and get a ton of irrelevent context. Please just summarize your answer at least.

      I have to do the “long description before answering yes or no” thing at work because I constantly have to describe to my project managers why I could answer yes or no but ultimately the question it self is pointless and they should really be asking something else.
