If Business Meetings Were Like Internet Comments

Posted by Alex in Blog & Internet, Video Clips on August 18, 2007 at 12:32 am


What happens if participants in a business meeting behave like Internet commenters? Here’s a funny (because it’s true) video clip: Hit play or go to Link [College Humor]. Warning: crude language. Thanks Stephanie Belsky!

    I foresee this turning into something terrifyingly geeky and disturbingly webertube...ish...ness...like.
    God help us all.

    It's so true about the way girls are treated on forums.
    I had to leave the gamespy forums because nobody even listens to you if you're a girl.

    F**K!

  14. MrPumpernickel
    August 18th, 2007 at 4:26 am

    Then again there are girls who expect to be treated differently just because they are girls. They're not any better.

    That was a hoot - the knee-jerk "that chart was photoshopped" comment was my favorite ... who would've thought that business meetings could be even more useless than they already tend to be - all through the magic of the internets!

    They referenced lolcatz. The woman said "I see whut u did thar." After the guys did a Borat impression.

    August 19th, 2007 at 4:12 am

    They made, like, a whole decision in that meeting. That's pretty good, compared to most meetings.

    And yet no-one came out with "TLDR" (or "too long, didn't read" since they seemed to be spelling them all out in the vid) ?!

    A required response to include, surely...

    "What does 'You're a retard' mean?" tag teamed with a "PWNED!" just made my day.

    August 19th, 2007 at 10:05 am

    See, the difference is when we comment online we're talking about somebody's home video of their drunk friends. We're not conducting a business meeting.

    That's why it's "pwned" and/or "gayy"

    And, so now you see this whole video is gay.

    Pwnd.

    V33nU is the verification code that you have to fill in that basically says you're not a robot or an automated program doing whatever. You have to fill them in a lot for when you make new accounts and sometimes when you leave comments in places because otherwise bots will spam porn ads.

    What? No free viagra offer, no barnyard russian teen webcam spam? They left a lot out, what it needed was a nigerian offering 50 million dollars if you give him 500,000 for safekeeping.

    If you stop reading this now you will die cos these words are possessed by the spirit of a dead girl or something. The only way to remove this curse is to forward this comment onto 100 other comment boards and all your friends and then you will also get off with the person you have a crush on and blah blah blah etc

    Hi Levi Blackman - you probably did see it on another site, given that the original site that posted the content is credited on this page and tagged on the video!

    You're an idiot, think before posting.
