Phrase used at the workplace to explain why a particularly stupid, out of scope, or dubious change must be made to a project, because it was handed down by a higher level manager with little understanding of the repercussions. Refers to the corner offices that most clueless managers tend to have.
Worker: You do realize that we've been working on this for 3 months, building it out as it was planned, and now you're asking us to completely change it? We've gone from 90% done to 10% done in 60 seconds.
Middle Manager: Hey, what can I tell you? It came from the corner.

Get the cornerize mug.The auditory equivalent of “seeing something out of the corner of your eye.” A fleeting or imagined sound, ie: a whisper, knock, name being called, or music; usually experienced when you’re distracted, tired, or surrounded by background noise.
I swear I heard someone say my name, but no one’s even home. I definitely heard something out of the corner of the ear.
That ghosty noise? Just your imagination catching something out of the corner of the ear.
