slide deck

... a what?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Often shortened to deck. Sounds similar enough to dick that you can just say dick and no one notices. You get to go around taking about showing people your dick all the time then giggle about it.

Just sliding the dick right in there.

common term in corpo speak. Because people use GSlides much more often down.

Also Apple. Keynote (Mac’s version of PowerPoint/GSlides) has an entire section of templates dedicated to the “Pitch Deck” category. For when you’re trying to pitch an idea to management.

Or get VC funding.

Or sell something.

Not really. It seems weird to me that someone would think of a "pitch deck" that way.
