Old Fashioned Stupidity

You probably think that the mental retardation and money-wasting reindeer games typical of corporate America are modern annoyances. Nay I say, for here is evidence to the contrary: the official IBM Corporate Songbook -- from 1937.

Just seeing that such a thing existed made me want to punch an HR girl in the... mouth. But to be fair, I get that urge pretty much every day of the week. Reading some of the lyrics, however, gave me a strong impulse to set the entire department on fire. With magnesium. Soaked in napalm. Can't have those pesky fire sprinklers extinguishing the cleansing flame before the infestation is properly purged.
