Is the Fat Lady Singing for Your Business?


Fat Lady Sings Business Cartoon

The trick to this one is you have to know the idiom “it’s not over until the fat lady sings.” I feel like that’s still fairly common, maybe not as prevalent as previous decades, but still in the lexicon I think.

I do worry that as I get older my references and word choice seem dated. I also worry that I’m not tapping into current comedy norms. I also worry that my art style will seem old fashioned.

But this cartoon still works right? Right?

I worry a lot.

  1. Interesting. So what will really happen when the fat lady sings? The sales will go down?
