LOL! I'm sorry!
Don't you hate it when they want your attention? So inconsiderate!

Conference Call Bingo - otherwise called Bullsh!t Bingo !
I played it a couple of times in our change control meetings - the trouble is people think you're on drugs because you have an inane grin on your face as your score gets better !!
If you win, the temptation to punch the air with a big YESSSSS is to huge to bear.

Best is if you play against someone else in the same meeting, each picking words you're sure will come up. Its like you're betting on 10 words against the other person's ten words. Very competitive !

I prefer full-contact conference calling... It really gets your point across. Absolutely no misunderstandings whatsoever.

I really should! That would make it a lot more fun.
