What do you do Without an Idea?

[forsyth]

These days, you can't really use the phrase "The Man" in a non-ironic sense. At least when you're talking about The Man, as opposed to telling somebody they're the man.

Which is kinda awkward, when it's all said and done, because The Man is still around, but how are you supposed to talk about it without a phrase to contain the concept?

You just can't use that phrase because you are the Man.

I'm a sales drone at a megacorp! I'm The Man's pinky toe!
