Social Softener

A person brought into important business meetings to help soften the tone and diffuse anxiety.

This person often asks the introductory personal questions of the guests: What sort of drink would the guest like, how was their drive, did they find parking all right, would they like to use the bathroom before the meeting, how is their family, what a nice tie they are wearing, isn't the weather lovely...

social ontology

A cyclical time theory of linearity in which asymmetry causes incompleteness (inequality); and incompleteness causes discontinuity; and discontinuity recursively causes asymmetry.

That is to say, from mediums emerge outcomes, from outcomes emerge catastrophes and from catastrophes recurse to form new mediums beginning the cycle of linearity once again.

Also called ontologistics.

Social ontology is an ontologistical iteration of the tri-functional hypothesis.
