Ring Around The Rosie

Yes, The Cube knows what the old nursery rhyme means:

Ring around the rosie
A pocket full of posies
Ashes, ashes
We all fall down!

It's about the Black Death and other horrible things from the Middle Ages.

Now it's back - the horrible things - and it's a-ringing around.

The Cube refers, of course, to the Memo Denial Circle.

Jayzus H. Kuh-righst!, can't people pay attention to what they're saying the first time they say it?!?

No, of course not, that would mean that they are thinking things out instead of speaking from their ass.

Ah, but if it would only end there . . .

First, the Asinine Memo.

It is key to the Asinine Memo that a Self-Important Person, or SIP, send it to a Less Important Person (LIP).

But, sometimes, the memo goes astray. Maybe the SIP mistakenly CC'd a VIP in addition to the LIP. Or the LIP did a FWD to a VIP as an FYI.

So the VIP memos the SIP asking "What is THIS?" To which the SIP replies to the VIP, "I didn't say that" - but forgets that the LIP was CC'd and, to PYA, the LIP FYIs the VIP a CC of the Asinine Memo. But the VIP, who wasn't paying much attention to the first CC, has already CC'd another VIP, usually the SIP's VIP, with an FYI and a "What do you mean the SIP says you said?" So the 2nd VIP responds to the 1st VIP, while the SIP sends the LIP a clarification, which is really a denial, and the denial gets into the Asinine Memo Stream and now everyone is part of the big ASS-E-9 Memo Circle of Denial that goes round and round

And round and

round.
