Lorem Ipsum with a Twist of Corporate Double-Speak

I'm always finding a need to use Lorem Ipsum text.  Always.  Test data, filler, all the normal reasons.  For that, there's no better resource than Subterrane's aptly named Lorem Ipsum Generator.  I use it daily or nearly so.  But this morning, courtesy of Merlin Mann at 43 Folders, I read this:

"Synergistically engage cross-media human capital for out-of-the-box convergence. Objectively generate fully tested meta-services via market-driven sources. Interactively underwhelm long-term high-impact convergence rather than future-proof convergence."

Yeah, I don't know what it means either, but that's the point, of course.  Well, that and the impressive capacity to spew forth a copious volume of verbiage while simultaneously saying nothing at all.  Fun.

This boardroom amusement is brought to you courtesy of Corporate Ipsum, a dashboard widget for OS X.  Lorem ipsum is dead to me (at least when I'm using my Mac).  There's even a nice Office Space reset in the overview text.
