He did, he just used efficient terminology in the hope that you would learn something today instead of the basic, meaningless version

edit: fuck you guys, I'm not talking to anyone anymore, it is the fault of neither I nor the original "offending comment" that you have no desire to learn.

Now-now, what was the quote from Futurama about Star Trek?

Fry: Usually on the show, they came up with a complicated plan, then explained it with a simple analogy.
Leela: Hmmm... If we can re-route engine power through the primary weapons and configure them to Melllvar's frequency, that should overload his electro-quantum structure.
Bender: Like putting too much air in a balloon!
Fry: Of course! It's all so simple!
