Conundrums Committee - Subtheory 13: The Conduunderpants Theory

By: Dr. Balthazar McSnazz, Committee Chair

The Conduunderpants Theory is a revolutionary new framework for understanding the intricacies of committee decision-making. It posits that any problem can be solved by simply ignoring it and moving on to the next item on the agenda.

Key Tenets of the Conduunderpants Theory:

• The Power of Denial: A committee member's right to ignore any information that might hinder their own understanding of the matter at hand.
• The Art of Diverting: The ability to steer conversation away from the issue at hand and towards a more pressing matter, such as the snack budget.
• The Science of Scapegoating: A committee member's privilege to blame any failure on a colleague or outside entity.

Case Studies:

• The Great Parking Lot Debacle: A case study in which our committee successfully ignored a parking lot issue for 3 years, resulting in a 10% increase in office turnover.
• The Mystery Meatballs of 2018: A scandal in which committee members were found to be ignoring their own meetings, leading to a 50% reduction in productivity.
