Read Every Slide Word for Word
This cartoon has happened to me more times than I care to remember.
But it wasn’t until my wife and I were at a presentation that they all coalesced into the above cartoon.
I drew this on a scrap of paper and showed it to her. It was a good thing we were sitting in the back of the room because we both got the giggles and had to look elsewhere and think sad thoughts so we could stop.
It’s one of my most popular recent cartoons, and I suspect it’s because we’ve all been there.

Chill.
