At my sister's wedding, I gave a maid-of-honor toast which involved acting out their courtship with hand puppets. It was awesome. (At least I thought so.)
During the dot-com boom, I grabbed some puppets that were on a co-worker's desk and acted out a little puppet show over the cubicle wall where the puppets were spouting endless dot-commie-business-jargon speak. Everyone was simultaneously ROFL and begging me to please stop.
It wish it was, Hugh. That would have taken it to a whole other level of kick-assness. I still have one unmarried sister left, so it could still happen.
Back when I was a PC salesman, we were trained to keep the vocabulary of the pitch at the same level as the customers knowledge. Whenever I had a truly stupid one, I'd always think "time to break out the hand puppets."
