Multimedia Entertainment Event - sans multimedia and sans creativity

So I wiggle some time out of an insane production schedule and spend half an hour at an 'entertainment industry' related event. I walked in 5 minutes before the mind-numbing, body twitching, hair pulling BORING speeches. People with no expression, body language, personal style and nothing to say, stood there regurgitating words out of their static websites and brochures. With words that included leaders, multimedia, cross cultural, innovation, there was nothing but the absolute lack of creativity in every aspect of the event. I fidgited, said hello to a couple people and said goodbye. "Oh, you're leaving?" he actually asked! "Yes, thanks to this ridiculously uncreative event that I consider an insult to the guests. The wrist-cutting boredom did it really!" "You're not staying for the movie?" he continued to ask. "How the bloody hell do you expect me to? Can't you see the flood of boredom gushing out of my every orifice, crack, pore and in so many forms?!"

A dear friend once said: "You invite me, you honor me. You don't invite me, you relieve me."

I'd like to be relieved, thank you very much!
