Gotta change the paradizzle, my nizzles, return on invizzle must be fo-rizzle adjusted for risk-adjizzle opportunity cost of capitizzle.

I would probably pay Snoop and Jay-Z whatever their going rate on speaking fees are just to do satirical impressions of their '90s selves at all of our work meetings.

Also, Workday can eat a bowl of whatever appendages.

Then the dog was talking to us.

When David Berkowitz, AKA the Son of Sam killer, was arrested, he originally claimed he did the murders because he was ordered to by a demon manifesting itself in the form of a dog.

In other words, if a dog is talking to you, don't listen.

@Roadkilled I didn't say I could understand it

then Workday

Oh no, a conference full of HR people

[415s30]

@ForSweden Oh, then it won't be an exciting one, I bet it's like the IBM show, lots of boring people with some trying to let loose on their fancy SF convention trip. A lady at the Marriott told me they are like kids who don't know how to party and fuck like rabbits.

@Taylor-Martin one of my company's recent sales conference event thingies had THREE impersonators, and they were all awful. Elvis, Lady Gaga, and Zach Galifianakis in character as Alan from The Hangover.

Major, major cringe.

I'm glad I wasn't there in person... I watched a few minutes of the internal broadcast and then noped out.

@ForSweden Having spent some time working at a different HR software company I have to say that those HR people go wild at shows. They get to let loose when there are no coworkers around.

[Taylor Martin]

@BJ But why... why do people like doing that... is it like kings and jesters? Makes them feel powerful? It seems so... unnecessary and cringe (as you described it).

[BJ]

@Taylor-Martin I think it's supposed to add flavour or humour to an otherwise relatively boring sales event, but it's so easy to get wrong.

At the same time, people love their celebrities and will be happy to have their picture taken with a good impersonator. But having them tell jokes and do other schtick is really more like watching a drag show, which is the wrong feel for most corporate events...

[Taylor Martin]

@BJ Idk, I'd go to a corporate drag show... would be an interesting experience for everyone.

[415s30]

@Taylor-Martin We could have a top notch drag show in SF guaranteed.
