Evaluate the following humorous analogy between the murder of a famous Roman emperor and the deadening effect of meetings: "This month is the 2,053rd anniversary of the death of Julius Caesar, who pronounced himself dictator for life before running the idea past the Roman Senate. On his way to a meeting, he was met by a group of senators who, wishing to express their unhappiness with his vocational aspirations, stabbed him to death. Moral of the story: Beware of meetings."Footnote Is the comparison fitting? What might the author of the article have wanted to convey? (L.O. 2)

The comparison is not fitting. The humor of this analogy lies in the fact that is that meetings are not dangerous, but becoming a dictator most likely could result in getting some enemies.

Explanation:

The author probably wanted to express that Caesar´s murder was a result of his dictatorial actions, and not simply a consequence of him innocently going to a meeting.
