Accidental Innuendo (lighthearted)

What's yours?

Inspired and in honour of the folks at my workplace's accidentally hilarious marketing department who have, in the last month alone have ...

... drawn up a lovely infographic containing an icon that unmistakeably looked like a butt plug.

... suggested to print a slogan onto a brochure the wording of which comes across as decidedly, erm, orgasmic.

... literally suggested the phrase "touching our client where it matters" as a slogan.

I love these people. Regrettably, I've had to turn down each and every one of these on the grounds of appearing to be marginally professional. But I've hardly ever laughed as much as when I've worked with them on occasion.

No idea where they find these people!

Oh, and, sorry for the typos/dodgy grammar. I'm no good on a phone.

Not me but my old boss who drew a graph that looked like a penis and then circled the tip as the area of interest.

In my old job there was lots of meetings discussing penetration rates. I’m a massive child and struggled to keep a straight face.

Oh, yeah, penetration.

I've mostly got used to it but admittedly do enjoy making male execs turn bright red by pointing out the bleedingly obvious every once in a while. I'm the only Brit where I work.

Routing in questionnaire design apparently should not be confused with rooting in Australia Grin
