I know this post will have a very narrow audience. Even narrower considering literally no one reads my blog anymore. If you haven't seen the hit AppleTVplus show, Severance. Go watch it.
If you have seen it you'll kind of get what I'm riffing on here. I was pondering the bonkers work incentive for the MDR team known as a "Waffle Party" It comes totally out of nowhere but sort of tracks with the culty vibes at Lumon Industries. I had this mental image of two low-level Lumon execs sitting around thinking of ways to try to impress their bosses. As if they were tasked to come up with ideas for incentives to keep the innies in MDR meeting quota. So far they already had pencil erasers and the caricature drawings but they thought bigger. What if they let the innies have sex as a reward?
Setting: Breakfast meeting at Pips with two Lumon executive employees.
–Hey, weird thought- how about as an incentive, maybe we should let the innies have sex?
I bet they'd love that! haha.
-No, I'm serious.
Okay... but we can't just make it like sex with a hooker or whatever, it has to be tied to work somehow.
–what if the innie is taming the tempers?
Like have the innie fuck woe, dread, malice and frolic?
–yea we could get sexy costumes made...
how do you make Dread sexy?
–anything can be sexy, Steve haven't you been to the Halloween Store?
Good point. So it will be like an orgy with hot chicks dressed as the tempers.

(awkwardly stops talking as the server brings their food. Attractive 20something waitress remarks at their order as she sets it down "Waffles all around eh?" Roger replies "yea so what we like waffles, mind your own business" said with the confident arrogance of a Lumon exec inside Pips in the town named after their founder. She leaves and they carefully continue with the orgy discussion)
Wait so, what if it's a woman.... the innie? for the orgy I mean, should there be a guy?
–Ok make one of them a dude.
–Ok make one of them a dude.
Wait will the male innie think they have to fuck the dude temper?
–If they want to I guess? Maybe some of them are gay...Maybe the woman wants to fuck the other women tempers. Who knows what those innies get up to. Maybe they will think they have to and not want to ... fuck it. If it's for Kier they probably will. We can just make the goat a dude.
Ok settled. (he says mouth full of waffles) What should we call it?
–lol how about a 'waffle party'
(spits out waffles) what!?
–yea we could have the innie eat a stack of waffles while they dance.
This is getting out of hand, wont they think that's weird?
–Dude this whole place is weird and they don't even blink and eye. Have you BEEN to the Mamalian's Nurturible? Those weirdo's outies think they work in a corporate records department. They won't even care. They'll be like "sweet, waffles and sex! this is the best job ever"
Ok -'Waffle Party' it is. OMG this place is fucking crazy. I can't wait to tell Jaime.
–Praise Kier
(together) PRAISE KIER!!!
ahh dammit. (dunks napkin in water to dab syrup off his tie)
–(waives down server who laughs under her breath at him spilling on himself) For Kier's-sake can we get the bill please?
