Collaboratrix 

A collaborator, catalyst, muse and dominatrix mixed into one.

Someone you ad or bring into the mix at an early stage of creative development when you feel something is missing but you just don't know what.

A confidante who will inspire you to get out of bed in the morning and start what you finished, or make something new and even better.

A modern-day artist's muse who actually gets some credit (rather then the tortured silent suffering uncredited muses of yesteryear.)

Coca-Cola employed a major ad agency to develop their new campaign but it wasnt until a collaboratrix was called into the office, that the team really got their pitch together.

A collaboratrix catalyses ideas in the people she agrees/decides to work with.

A collaboratrix's work involves brainstorming, goal setting, bringing out the best in people and being spontaneious.

The talented genius worked alone in his little studio painting everyday, once he met a collaboratrix his art was taken to a whole new level- global exhibitions, magazine spreads and a lot of buzz followed.

The collaboratirx is more goal focused andbossier then an old-fashioned muse.

To be a collaboratrix you have to be able to put your ego to one side and focus on win-win ideas and solutions.

Seamless Collaborative Guy Lie 

The rare /phenomenon in which each man in a room is caught in a snafu of being in the middle of a sticky situation. This causes compulsive lying where each guy builds off the other man's lie. It is the most flawless of plans because women tend to lose interest in anything men say fairly quickly. First popularized by Scrubs when Carla walked in on all the male staff watching Carla and Turk's nanny for Izzy on the television. Carla walks in, and all the men enter the Seamless Collaborative Guy Lie Zone.

“And then every male in the room felt totally in sync, resulting in the rarest of all phenomenon - the seamless collaborative guy lie.”— J.D.'s narration

“Hey baby, what are you guys watching?”— Carla

“Football.”— Turk

(Everyone agrees)

“Football? Isn't the season over?” -Carla

“And then every male in the room felt totally in sync, resulting in the rarest of all phenomenon - the seamless collaborative guy lie.”— J.D.'s narration

“The American season is over, we were watching Mexican Football.”— Keith

“They started late this year.”— Doug

“Because of the churro vendors.”— Todd

“They went on strike and the players wouldn't cross the picket line.”— Ted

“When the dispute turned violent, they called in Rodrigo Vasquez, the owner of the Baja Panditos to step in.”— J.D.

“Thanks to señor Vasquez' experience dealing with the fruit pickers unions, he was able to broker a last minute deal and the season was salvaged.”— Dr. Kelso

“And that's why we're watching football in the spring.”— Turk

Collaboration 

The idea that everyone can work together and produce something better than they could on their own with less work.
Often results in more work for 1-2 members of the group who receive little help

Group Member #1: So lets get started on this project
Group Member #2: Yeah this is going to be easy
Group Member #3: You two can do it on your own and put my name on it okay?
Group member #1: I hate Collaboration
