Bullshit Bingo

Menstuff® has compiled the following information on how to play Bullshit Bingo.

Bullshit Bingo

Do you keep falling asleep in meetings and seminars? What about those long and boring conference calls? Here's a way to change all of that. Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call, print out the card on this page (or make your own)

During a call or meeting, check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those words/phrases. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

syngery	strategic fit	core competencies	best practice	bottom
revisit	take that off-line	24/7	out of the loop	benchmark
value-added	proactive	win-win	think outsid the box	fast-track
result-driven	empower	knowledge base	at the end of the day	touch base
mindset	client focused	ballpark	game plan	leverage

Make your own

Make your own by drawing a square -- I find that 5"x 5" is a good size -- and dividing it into columns --five across and five down. That will give you 25 1-inch blocks. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block: synergy, strategic fit, core competencies, best practice, bottom line, revisit, take that off-line, 24/7, out of the loop, benchmark, value-added, proactive, win-win, think outside the box, fast track, result-driven, empower (or empowerment), knowledge base, at the end of the day, touch base, mindset, client focus(ed), ballpark, game plan, leverage.)
