"Can you unpack that, please?"
No, not a box or a suitcase, but a comment, an idea.
Sorry, but when did we start unpacking ideas? Do we neatly put them in cardboard boxes to be brought out when needed? What happened to "could you expand on that?" or "could you explain that, please".
Unpack? Only once I'm back from a trip away, if it's all the same with you, thanks.
:D

Competition for the next conference:
how many times the term 'unpacking' is used...
There was a 'thing' at one conference when, every time the word was used, there was a little flurry of said expanding arm movements from those 'in the know'.
ReplyDeleteI think that may have been the conference where we got told off for being a bit to disrespectful, or flippant, or whatever it was.
