Our team was tasked with designing a new marketing campaign for a fictional product, but things quickly derailed.
We were supposed to discuss the color scheme, but our lead designer was MIA (Missing In Action).
We tried to start without him, but the project lead kept saying "just five more minutes, I'm just checking some numbers."
Five hours, 27 minutes, and 14 seconds later, we finally got the design approved, but it was in Comic Sans and had a font size of 12pt.
As we were minimalist about the design, we decided to just go with it, but our team lead was having an existential crisis about the meaning of life.
We tried to tell him it was just a meeting, but he kept saying "but is it just a meeting, or is it a metaphor for the meaninglessness of existence?"
We eventually had to call in a team of existential philosophers to mediate the meeting, but they just ended up arguing with each other.
We're still lost in this meeting, and we're not sure when we'll find our way out.
