Are you sure? It looks like he can’t stop staring at that she devil and he may not mind continuing to stare for eternity. And she’s staring right back at him too.
In George Orwell’s 1984, the infamous torture room in the Ministry of Love was Room 101. The real Room 101 was the conference room at BBC where staff meetings were held when Orwell worked there. That was his most inhuman torture

It’s a meeting that is actually eternal rather than just seeming eternal.

You saying demons won’t leave a meeting? They’re evil, not stupid.

The agenda will be hell and we’re recording all the minutes. Before we start with general business are there any apologies?

The meeting that never ends. Does it repeat itself endlessly? Or does it have to continue inventing new topics to discuss? Opinions?

The meetings that I had to attend once in a while were not eternal but they were infernal!!

They don’t need to actually make it eternal; all meetings feel that way after an hour or so.

That’s why I like working from home. Turn off the camera and take a nap.

He must have been that guy at the end of a meeting when everyone is ready to leave who answers the question, does anyone have any questions?

The “donuts” are stale and the coffee is bitter and watery.

Has no one here heard about social distancing? I went through the lockdowns. Now that seemed like an eternity.
