demotivators

have i mentioned before how much i love the “de-motivational” posters available at despair.com? Some of my favorites:

Meetings: None of us is as dumb as all of us.
Motivation: If a pretty poster and a cute saying are all it takes to motivate you, you probably have a very easy job. The kind robots will be doing soon.
Cluelessness: There are no stupid questions, but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots.
Consulting: If you’re not a part of the solution, there’s good money to be made in prolonging the problem.
Idiocy: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
Flattery: If you want to get to the top, prepare to kiss a lot of the bottom.
Discovery: A company that will go to the ends of the earth for its people will find that it can hire them for about 10% the cost of Americans.
Humiliation: The harder you try, the dumber you look.
Delusions: There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality.
Power: Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. But it rocks absolutely, too.
Potential: Not everyone gets to be an astronaut when they grow up.
Indifference: It takes 42 muscles to frown and just 17 to smile, but it doesn’t take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.
Planning: Much work remains to be done before we can announce our total failure to make any progress.
Loneliness: If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you’re not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone.
Get to Work: You aren’t being paid to believe in the power of your dreams.
