To my phone company: You reassigned this phone number to me 6 months after you took it away from the deadbeat who didn't pay his phone bill. Why can't you understand that it's no longer his phone number? Just because you can't find him, is no cause to harass me!
Another person to his phone company: Of course I received your message that the replacement for my broken phone is ready to pick up - just as soon as I got the replacement phone and checked for messages.
Me to the Yellow Pages publisher: Of course I wanted to be listed in the yellow pages under my business name. You offered me a listing in the Yellow Pages because I'm listed as a business in the white pages didn't you? Do you see anyone else listed in the Yellow Pages by their personal name?

I coined this term in 2001 in personal writings. It was stolen by a popular msnbc commentator who asserted to have coined the phrase and he did not.

When you work for a corporation that treats you no better than a serf in the Middle Ages, it is corporate serfdom.

Manager A says "The xyz sales contest is not worth the paper it is written on." Not realizing the current CEO sitting in the room got promoted on that idea. "I can't believe I said that, I have corporate turrets."

Corporal Derp is any AI (artificial intelligence) in a video game that makes a fool of themselves in any way.
1) In the situation of you playing splinter cell, a guard trips and falls in a cut scene.
2) AI stands in front of you, asks "Where did he go?" when you are in plain sight, AI gains status of 'Corporal Derp'.
