I love how in the slide with "It was the goose that created value", the goose has its wings raised. The goose is ... triumphant. Ascendant. Its arc is complete: after being valued at $0, the goose is recognized for the inexhaustible source of value it is. The goose is vindicated.

And finally, in the denouement, we see the goose in serene repose. "It is the Goose itself," we are told, in bold, confident lettering. This is what matters. Not the eggs.

I hope lasagnacat can come back, do a special on this, and hire John Barrymore for the narration, as a spiritual sequel to their Pipe Strip video (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NAh9oLs67Cw).

Back in 2014, Son also gave me a good laugh with a slide comparing:

> Von Neumann computer: powered by programming vs. Personal robot: powered by family happiness. https://i.gzn.jp/img/2014/06/05/softbank-conference/snap3014...

His sense of humor has only reached new heights since then.

Here's the talk that went along with this deck (for those who would prefer not immediately jumping to ridicule): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtM0Cjb0dEU

If your reaction is 'What the Hell is this?', read this for background:

Then notice that the metal construction robot needs toe protectors on its boots.

Then notice that the slides have small print.

The only thing I got from the presentation is that I still underrate geese, gotta put some respect on their feathered name.

This makes me feel like a spend too much time on slides for my rinky dink enterprise software feature projects.

Surreal

Original approach for their annual shareholder decks. I liek that.

Pure trolling as a strategy...
