corporate mentality

Large-scale practice of committee mentality within a corporate entity, (see corporate personhood).
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?

Corporate Communism

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.
It is the Corporate Communism that leads our nation, not the people.

Corporate turrets

When someone sticks their foot in their mouth in a corporate setting/meeting.
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

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'.

Corporate Comedy

Celebrity stars usually from Vine, Tiktok, or Youtube who produce mediocre comedy skits toward children on as many platforms as possible in order to generate income.
1: "Hey have you kept up with (insert viner here)?
2: "Oh yea they switched to youtube but are more active on tiktok. It's a great example of Corporate Comedy."
1: "not surprised"
