You think the moon landings were impressive? Try surviving a conference call with ten lawyers all trying to out-argue each other over a crackling speakerphone the size of a Buick. This isn’t collaboration; it’s a gladiator pit of legal egos, where the only thing worse than the feedback loop is the partner who still can’t figure out the mute button.

Next time someone mocks the phrase "conference call," remember the brave souls who paved the way, armed with their wits, a Rolodex, and the patience of saints. These weren’t just lawyers—they were pioneers of frustration, trailblazers of passive aggression, the true martyrs of the legal profession.
