A problem with that old saying is it ignores the vast amount of sugar needed to make lemonade.
I was wondering if he just stood there and drank straight lemon juice while he talked about lemonade.
This story is honestly one of the most unhinged things I've ever heard.
If he had just recited the saying in an offhand way my response would likely be limited to rolling my eyes, but the fact someone at the company said “it’ll really hit home if you bring an actual lemon on stage...” makes me think the leadership is bonkers.
People fall for it.
Okay, so I will pee in the cup -- on stage, right in front of them.
