RIP the three hours and thirty-three minutes Critic spent in the boardroom.

You will be sorely missed.
Suffice it to say, the meeting dragged on, to the point where someone could have watched The Fellowship of the Ring: Extended Edition AND made two-minute noodles during the time. Or, in the case of Steph, decorated their hands, arms, and diary with glitter paint. 
Critic is promptly swallowing their words from last Execrable – the fortnightly meetings suck.
The first motion of the night applauded James for his “X-treme generosity” – the genial gentleman gave a coat back to an old man on Anzac Day. James is now eligible for most dateable Exec member, although it should be noted there is presently a severe lack of competition.
Serious stuff also went down, like when the Exec received the OUSA Audited Accounts. The Exec were reminded that they are governing an organisation with 16 million dollars worth of assets and up to 90 employees, which by New Zealand standards is a real behemoth. 
Then, all of a sudden, the most amazing showdown was taking place right before Critic’s sleep-deprived eyes. Four Execcies (Walker, Shonelle, Imogen, and Michael) battled it out for an appointment to the Finance and Expenditure Committee, apparently quite a desirable position. Questions were fired at the candidates: “What can you bring to the table?” and “What OUSA asset would you chop?” to name just two. Many of the answers were stunningly evasive (typical politicians). 
A tense tribal council led to a tie-breaker round between Imogen and Michael. Michael admitted he would cut down on Farmville if he was picked. Clearly a smart political move, as he won out in the end. But Walker had the last words: “GO DOWN. Discussion closed.” Pow, you got served.
The excitement continued seconds later as James fell gracefully to the floor. He quickly recovered, in order to deliver what were described as a series of “meager” reports (a pun courtesy of Dan that was too good not to appropriate). 
After that the meeting ended and Critic crept out of the boardroom, weeping softly.
