Mayor: We need a flag to represent out city.
Person A: Okay, how about a simple flag made out of two colors and a nice galleon. It will be tasteful and recognizable, with no needless clutter.
Person B: Okay that's great but not enough mollusks. How about instead we do a chevron with flag with like three clams, a moon, and also the white space is full of some tiny pine tree things or some shit that no one will understand.
Person C: Okay I like where you're going with that but let's do lions instead of clams and make the moon way smaller and also there are some red sand dollars on top so people know how much we like sessile marine organisms.
Person B: Aren't those stars or something? Where is my magnifying glass?
Person D: Nah let's take an English cross but spice it up with a couple of stars and also the entire earth is there too.
Mayor: Okay I'm hearing lots of good ideas. Let's go with all of them at once and have it done by 2 pm today.
This would be a lot funnier to me if it weren't a weekly occurrence at my workplace.
