  2. Film at ten by Bastard+of+Subhumani · · Score: 1 · on Meetings Make You Dumber

    I think this sums it up pretty well.

  3. Consultants by EL_mal0 · · Score: 3, Funny · on Norman & Spolsky - Simplicity is Out
    are they just consultants making a splash, or complexity the Next Big Thing in design?

    The folks who make those inspiring posters put it best:

    If you're not a part of the solution, there's good money to be made prolonging the problem

    While it's a Good Thing(TM) that this has evolved the way it was, anyone surprised by this has forgotten this:

    The trademark -- not a patent -- was by the owner of Demotivators.com, and it was on the :( emoticon (or "frownie"). As far as I know, the trademark is still valid, but fear not. Frownies are available to the public. Check out Demotivators.com, and mind the 1 gross minimum.

  7. Re:The Mayan calendar by ocbwilg · · Score: 2 · on A Rock Moves In Space

    The Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012. If 1. the projections are a bit off as far as the arrival date and 2. it does hit the Earth, I'd say this might be a good reason to end your calendar.

    Err...no. I mean, if we want to randomly ascribe values to the "end" of someone's calendar, we could just as easily use the Muslim calendar "ending" in 2076 or the Hebrew calendar "ending" in 2240. For that matter, my Demotivators calendar ended last year, and I haven't replaced it yet.

  8. The first "D'oh!"? by Chelloveck · · Score: 1 · on The Simpsons Turn 10
    My Demotivators calendar says for today,
    Homer Simpson first utters "D'oh!", aiding millions in articulating a precise feeling of self-inflicted stupidity. (1990)
    Okay, so the series began 14-Jan-1990. Didn't Homer ever say "D'oh!" on the Tracey Ullman show? Or in the Christmas Special (which aired in 1989, as I recall)? Don't tell me Demotivators got it wrong!
