Council bans ‘brainstorming’
A council has banned the term “brainstorming” - and replaced it with “thought showers”.
Officials Tunbridge Wells Borough Council in Kent feared the phrase might offend epileptics or the mentally ill.
Ironically, those who can’t brainstorm thought shower very tend to be those who don’t take real showers often enough. That said, “thought shower” will soon have to be changed, in order not to offend the smelly hygeine-challenged among us.
