THE JUDGE, SITTING IN JUDGMENT
EXTRA-LONG MEETING: A JUDGE'S LAMENT
Oh, the agony, the anguish, the utter despair of it all. This meeting has been going on for what feels like an eternity. We've discussed the finer points of nothing, debated the merits of beige, and argued the finer points of beige-ness.
I, the great and all-knowing judge, have been tasked with the duty of sifting through these, no doubt, riveting topics. My mind is numb, my back aches, and my patience is wearing thin. But still, I press on, for the sake of progress, or at least, the sake of getting this meeting over with.
And now, I must ask, dear participants, what say you? Do you have any more of these, no doubt, scintillating topics to discuss? Do you have any, any, ANYTHING left to say?
(Note: Please keep your responses brief. We're running on fumes here.)
