Comedy Writing Tip #43: How to Write Jokes About Work Meetings Without Falling Asleep

Meetings are comedy's untapped goldmine - here's how to pan for laughs: 1) **The Time Sink** - "Nothing says 'this could have been an email' like a 2-hour meeting about meetings." 2) **The Buzzword Bingo** - "Let's circle back to synergize our paradigms... or just admit we're all faking it." 3) **The PowerPoint Paradox** - "The more slides we have, the less anyone's paying attention." 4) **The Participation Trophy** - "Raise your hand if you've contributed nothing but still expect credit." 5) **The Safety Net** - Always add: "But collaboration is important... said the guy scheduling his 4th Zoom of the day." Pro Tip: The best meeting jokes make people laugh while taking covert notes for their own standup. On-Stage Line: "I don't believe in work-life balance... I believe in work-life integration, where both are equally disappointing." SOURCE: http://comedywriter.info
