【博士买驴】〖bó shì mi l〗[A learned scholar buys a donkey -- neglecting the main point; be verbose and not to the point; beside the mark; write wide of the mark]

博导购驴契约拟，

士书三纸意偏离。

买家履读没看懂，

驴却只字也未题。

博士买了一头驴子，写了三纸契约，没有一个“驴”字。讥讽写文章长篇累牍而说不到点子上。Learned scholar doctor bought a donkey and wrote three papers of contract, without a word "donkey". sarcasm write article long-drawn and tedious documents and can't say out key point.同：不得要领。反：言简意赅。  从前有一个自以为是的文人被人戏称为博士，他上街买了一头驴子，按当时的习惯，买家要给卖家写一份合同。博士铺开白纸，下笔千言，足足写了三大张跟驴无关的废话。卖驴人等得不耐烦就催他快点，他忙说不急还没写到驴字。
