mtv.jpgFrom a commenter regarding the suddenly mysterious “M” in MTV’s name: “M stands for Manifestival, which is what they are calling this all-inclusive meeting. They may introduce some new initiatives moving forward, but nothing groundbreaking.” Manifestival? Is this a joke? If it’s not, well, between this and “Lovemark,” we should probably just throw the wake in memoriam of the English language (not to mention my chosen career) right now. Thanks a lot, marketers!

    Manifestival is the best name for a corporate retreat since a former vp mandated that all retreats shall henceforth be renamed "Advances."

    I read it as "MANfestival," too, but realized that if it was Manfestival, Choire would've posted it on Gawker long before it made its way to Idolator.

    "Manfestival" would be a lot more entertaining.
