Some people brainstorm; we, however, are content to waffle. The ideas come out just the same in the end, though. This evening, as an alternative to ‘pushing the envelope’, an activity beloved by over-enthusiastic business execs everywhere, we invented ‘pushing the antelope‘. This phrase may already exist elsewhere, but if so, we’ve never come across it.
Still on the subject of exploring and testing the boundaries of one’s abilities, we sometimes also talk about thinking not outside the box but outside the tin.
Yes, maybe it is time we both went for a lie down.
