Corporate communism, as defined by the Beatnik Bird, is when brain dead corporations own the means of communication, (the privatized Big Brother) and which are dedicated to promoting the anarchist idea that the best government is no government beyond the military and the police. Whatever government exists is a wholly owned subsidiary of the corporations kind of like Czarist Russia before the Marxist revolution in 1917 when everything was owned by royalty and its facilitator the church.
Corporate Communism is a blend of two of the most hated and abused terms in pop economics, corporatism, aka capitalism and communism, aka socialism. It was created by the Beatnik Bird as a descriptive term to grab the attention of those who have no factual knowledge of either but are convinced that either or both are evil.

Get the Corporate Communismmug. Local chains of trivia hosting whose most common venues are sports pubs or chain restaurants. May also include non-chain restaurants. Format is broken into short rounds, with frequent breaks to make the trivia seem longer without writing lots of questions. Instead of giving the whole night or category a theme, each question is random to provide maximum generic appeal. The host is picked not for their interesting question writing skills, but for their radio-style personality.
I spent 2 hours at a corporate trivia last night and had to drink 4 drinks out of boredom while our annoying trivia host individually graded one question at a time, written on their logo'd trivia notepads. Waste of time and paper.

Get the Corporate Crumbsmug. Corporate bulimia is when companies grow uncontrollably then inevitably layoff people when they miss their growth forecasts. They "binge" via aggressive hiring, acquisitions and mergers, only to then "purge" via planned and unplanned mass layoffs. Results in a perpetually demoralized, depressed and anxious staff of survivors who then repeat the process until eventually the company goes bankrupt or is sold for parts. Rarely a company actually survives this cycle, thereafter attempting to appear healthy to outsiders while employees continue to suffer in silence. The term is an analogy comparing the neurotic growth of companies to the devastating illness bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder. All-too-often found in vainglorious Silicon Valley growth-focused companies.
"Another ten thousand wage slave layoffs were announced today in the latest rounds of corporate bulimia."

Get the Corporate bulimiamug. An individual with the work ethic of a warrior in battle. Increases stakeholder value and decreases downtime. Productivity skyrockets and fluctuates time to time. A corporate warrior is defined as a highly valuable asset to a company but highly underpaid in most cases due to many factors but some can make big bucks sticking to it long term or having specific qualifications to begin with.
