A (Doctor) Horrible day

[catalyst2]

I managed to slide three Dr. Horrible-isms into my conversation at work, today, two of which worked and one, not so much.

First, on the difficulty of aligning internal procedures to changing external requirements: "The status is not quo!"

Second, during discussion of people making bad decisions due to an overestimation of their own importance: "That's so Johnny Snow!"

Third, on inadequate planning with a short-term focus: "Don't plan the plan if you can't follow through."

Not bad for a first effort, I feel!

#2 is an inside joke. It's definitely funny, but only if you're familiar with the source material.

Yeah, I thought it was the funniest too but considering no-one else knew the source, I was definitely singing solo!
