About this meme
Template Name: Boardroom Suggestion (The Defenestration Meme)
Origin: This comic is a 2012 webcomic titled "Outlook Ouch" by artist K.C. Green. It features a corporate meeting where a boss asks for ideas to solve a problem. After two employees give "safe" or greedy corporate answers, a third employee suggests a logical, consumer-friendly, or morally sound solution. The boss, enraged by the sensible suggestion, throws the third employee out of the boardroom window. It became a viral sensation for highlighting how common sense is often "thrown out the window" in corporate and social environments.
Key Vibes: Common sense vs. corporate greed, "truth hurts," being punished for being right, and the struggle of the lone logical thinker.
