Tsk tsk tsk… That’s how he gets ya…
You’re the olympic mascot!
Pedobear!
In case anyone wants to know why, IIRC that format was popularized online by the Despair Inc demotivational posters of the 2000s.
Which themselves satirized the banal and pompous business inspo decor of the dotcom six sigma era that was ubiquitous on the walls of fart whiffer conference rooms, executive offices, and the like.
There are still some six sigma adherents in existence. We haven’t managed to kill them all off yet.
Oh damn, you’re right! Apparently still a thing.
I’m not old enough to have used it but I read the ISO about DMAIC at some point and my impression was that, as with agile and other hype-jerk methodologies, there are some legit useful ideas to learn from at the start.

Somehow, much like the show itself, this meme refuses to die. A real winner
And back then they weren’t called “memes” but we called them (de)motivational pictures

Man, I still remember the days before firesheep when you could get up to all kinds of fuckery if you knew what you were doing.
Also, completely baffled me that someone thought it was a good idea to only use HTTPS for auth and leave the secure cookie traveling in the clear.
