I read The Dilbert Principle last month (only about thirty years behind the curve, I know) and it slates ~~purpose~~ ~~mission~~ vision statements even then.

In retrospect, it looks like Adams' edgy jokes and views didn't age well.

Dilbert is still funny and spot on even if he turned it to be an asshole
