Themuppet show is also the name of a great party game you can play, should you find yourself stuck on an idiotic [[conference call]]. It's really rather easy. Just slipp in a sly reference to the muppet show.

You don't have to actually call anyone Fozzie Bear, however tempting it may be. Simply suggeting (when a suitable context arises) “I think it's time to get things started”, or “will we be able to definitively eliminate the tail risk? I guess we'll never know” or, if it’s a call with fans of [[buzzword]]s, “it’s time to play the music”. They'll like that and may even unwittingly adopt it.

The Muppet Show is also a great party game you can play, should you find yourself stuck on an idiotic conference call. It's really rather easy. Just slipp in a sly reference to The Muppet Show.

You don't have to actually call anyone Fozzie Bear, however tempting it may be. Simply suggesting (when a suitable context arises) “I think it's time to get things started”, or “will we be able to definitively eliminate the tail risk? I guess we'll never know” or, if it’s a call with fans of buzzwords, “it’s time to play the music”. They'll like that and may even unwittingly adopt it.

An extra prize if you can mention three.
