The Twist
Your Presentation
No time limit. Just make sure
we actually get what you do.
Guest List
4 People
Small table. Nowhere to hide.
Every job gets exposed.
A presentation about your job. Recommended, not required. Thanh's doing one too — while also having cooked dinner. You have no excuse.
By the time you sit down, we know what you do. Not vaguely. Actually. That's the whole brief.
Two minutes. Twenty minutes. Whatever it takes. Just don't pad it. We'll know.
Use the buzzwords. Use the acronyms. Explain every single one. Drop a term without explaining it and you drink. Mid-presentation. In front of everyone.
Keynote, PDF, PowerPoint, video, voice note, photo of a napkin. If my MacBook can open it, it counts.
For your slot. Snacks make everything better. Instant power move. Highly encouraged. (No microwave. I'm an oven person. Don't @ me.)
House Rules
Shoes off at the door. Asian household rules, Spanish address. One of them is non-negotiable. It's not the address.
Eat first, present after. Food comes first, knowledge second. Come with an appetite for both.
Dumb questions are required. There are no dumb questions at this table. Only dumb job titles. Ask freely.
Phones are fine. Record it, fact-check it, look something up. Doomscrolling mid-conversation is a war crime here.
Good vibes are mandatory. Bad ones are not covered by my refund policy.
Show up on time. Your Latino ancestors are in your ear going "mijo, 21:30 is fine" — they are wrong. Respectfully. Sorry abuelos.
FAQ
What even is "The WTF Dinner"?
A dinner where we finally sort out what everyone actually does for work. I saw this ↗ while mindlessly scrolling Instagram at 2am and thought — yeah, let's do it.
Do I need to prepare anything?
A presentation is strongly recommended but not mandatory. No minimum length, no required format — Keynote, PowerPoint, PDF, a video, anything my computer can open is fair game. The only success metric: everyone at the table actually understands what you do when it's over.
Is there a dress code?
Come looking like a person. That's it. That's the whole code.
What if my job is genuinely boring?
Impossible. Every job is interesting if you explain it right. Also, this is exactly what we're here to find out together. Worst case, we love you anyway.
Can I use jargon in my presentation?
Yes — jargon is fully allowed. But the second you drop a term without explaining it, you drink. Right there. During the presentation. Consider this your incentive to actually explain things.
What should I bring?
Dinner is fully covered — full course meal. For the strong stuff (wine, vermouth, spirits), bring a bottle and share. Chips, popcorn, whatever to bite — very welcome, very encouraged.
What's the address?
Carrer d'Ausiàs Marc, 151. Full details — floor, entrance, all of it — will be sent the day before. Keep an eye on your phone.
What happens after presentations?
Presentations are done. Night is not. Bring a game if you've got one.

The Checklist
Non-negotiable. You are the content.
Keynote, PowerPoint, PDF, video, voice memo, napkin — if a MacBook can open it, it counts. Or just wing it. But a presentation helps.
Dinner is covered. For the strong stuff — wine, vermouth, whatever you're into — bring a bottle and share.
Snacks for your presentation slot? Absolute power move. Totally optional. Deeply appreciated.
Presentations done. Table cleared. Night's not over. Got a game you love? Bring it. No judgment on the choice. Mild judgment if you explain the rules badly.
Leave it. It doesn't fit in the bag anyway.
Confirmed
I hereby confirm that —
will join The WTF Dinner.
