"Your meeting's over. You can relax you zoom face now."

"Zoomed for five hours and my smile seized up."

'Not another powerpoint sermon!'

"I'm going to talk about the summer before last, it was much more fun."

"We're all in the same boat, except it's more like a life raft than an actual boat."

'A representative will be with you in twelve minutes... so, if you have to go to the bathroom, please go now...'

"You need to turn down the vibration setting on your cell phone."

"Sir, can I interest you in a luxury coffin?"

"But rather than me just sitting here talking, why don't we watch this video of me sitting here talking?"

"I hope you don't think that music while I waited soothed me."

Working from home.

'And just FYI, I was a caterpillar when you first put me on hold!'

March of the Zoombies.

I wish I could experience a normal, social interaction...

"If you would like to listen to music while you are on hold press 1, If you would like some quiet time to work out how much this call is costing press 2, if...."

Guess what pants I'm wearing on this Zoom call.
