Don't Despair...Yet

Is cubicle life making you too happy?  Are you starting to feel motivated?  Have no fear, the folks at Despair.com are here to help.  They are fighting the war against motivation!

"For over two decades, the multi-billion dollar motivation industry has unleashed untold suffering upon the workplaces, schools and civil institutions of the world- in the insidious form of the motivational poster.  In 1998, one company dared to fight back, as Despair, Inc. introduced Demotivators®, satirical products reverse-engineered from the most powerful motivational posters ever inflicted upon mankind."

They have lots of good stuff on their site, but if you can't find something you like then generate your own!  They now let you generate and print your own posters.

Here is my addition to the fight against Motivation...

Erm shouldn't that be "Don't dispair - you can spell better than everyone else" (ie It's despair not dispair!)

I agree that despair.com is a great site. Even their marketing emails and order acknowledgement emails are witty and raise a laugh.

LOL. Where would I be without spell check?  Apparently, I'd be writing blog posts with spelling mistakes.
