Directorgasm

What happens when a Director gets inordinately excited about something (usually unachievable) - often ends in a sticky mess.

Co-worker 1: I hear you were on the wrong end of a Directorgasm in the staff meeting this morning.
Co-worker 2:Yeah he saw some Powerpoint slides at a sales demo and now I have 2 weeks to build him a system that works the same.
Co-worker 1: Sucks to be you

directored 

To have a large amount of work scrapped through the last minute involvement of a Director expressing entirely arbitrary and subjective views.

"...Gordon has asked to see it before it goes out."
"Damn - hope it doesn't get Directored"

"I know we were supposed to be going live with the website this afternoon but its been directored and so it'll be next week"

directoritis 

Directoritis is a similiar condition such as "senioritis" "retire-itis" and just simple food itis. However, directoritis pertains to movie directors. The disease is most commonly acquired after the Oscars. Since the directors are loving their little gold oscar, they no longer make good movies, resulting in movie goers having to settle for less "quality" movies. This time of the year is usually a month or two after the oscars and is the christmas for Blockbuster economically. Soon after, the disease is cured and we can once again...see good movies.

Bill: Hey! Let's see a movie tonight!
Chad: Nah bro, nothing good is out...all the big shots have directoritis!
Bill: Wanna just see Race to Witch Mountain?
Chad: Nah..lets just rent Batman again!

Originated Friday February 5, 1999. UK Release of Disney Pixar "A Bug's Life".
Woolworths UK had sold out of Flick Action Figure in local store where a directors wife was shopping. Entire company spent the day reporting on all Bug's Life merchandise across the company based on this one product in one store not being available for a directors wife to buy.

Drop everything, we need to prioritise this directors wife syndrome request.

Board of Directors 

A board of directors is a group of Karens that feel they can talk down to the manager but also the C.E.O. of a company that does not bend to their will.

I feel sorry for that waiter over there.
Why?
Five Karens just sat down for bottomless mimosa's and brunch and you know they're going tell him how to do his job.
You mean the board of directors? Yeah, the whole table is getting there meal comped!
