Right now AnimeCon.org/Chrono LC CEO Ryan Kopf (who runs Anime Midwest, Animinneapolis, Meta Con, Con Alt Delete, Yoi Con, and several other events) is suing me in the state of Illinois over articles I wrote about him on my geek news site Nerd & Tie. Please consider contributing to my legal fund so I can continue to fight this case.

Note: While it’s true that many things are based on actual events, the characters contained within this strip are not meant to be direct analogs for actual people. They are not based off of people living, dead, or undead and any resemblance is coincidental. Nor are they based off of Ferrets.
Because that would be weird.
You mean there are meetings that AREN’T like that? 🙂
commemorating your wife’s birthday with a boring meeting.
Thankfully we don’t read minutes before our meetings. We just post them for people to read.
I would think the point of meeting minutes is to bring people up to speed who weren’t present, or to catch up if the previous meeting was a long time ago. Reading minutes from last week in the meeting seems like the kind of thing people do to seem “professional” because they think it’s just the thing you do and couldn’t tell you the actual point of it if you asked.
‘But… but… this is the way we’ve -always- done it!’
I have to say that boring meetings are preferable to some varieties of the opposite extreme.
“May you live in interesting times.”
Well, yeah, sometimes you should just light touchpaper and retire out the door… (And of course at dull ones one can always play computer games or make props, both of which I have done.)
