I'm brainstorming Halloween cartoon ideas. I kind of like this one, but was on the fence about it. So I texted it to my wife and daughter for their feedback and my daughter said it's too much of stretch and my wife likes it but wasn't sure if a lot of people are familiar with the "carve out some time" figure of speech. 

Back to the drawing board.

I laughed out loud.

I get the expression but I too am unfortunately older. I do think people will get the expression and in a way your demographics are probably skewing older aren't they? If I could make a vegetable suggestion I think an ear of corn would be kind of cute and a carrot with a really cool haircut.

Maybe this only works for us folks of a certain age 🙂

Yeah, teenagers are definitely not my demographic 😆 I like the idea of a carrot. That thing that looks like a cucumber or a zucchini was just a placeholder.

I think it works whether people know the phrase or not since it’s basically explained in the sentence. It’ll just be an extra laugh for those that do know it!

I like it! :) I also love the side eye looks from the others. Makes me think of some of my own meetings that get a little uncomfortable..... ;)

I got a chuckle out of facial expressions as well as dialog
