After the "I Like Trains" thread turned into the "I Like Trombones" thread, I imagined the worst when I saw this title...

Yes, I knew what they meant, but why not just SAY "they fell asleep"?  Not only easier to understand, but also easier for the writer to type.  Bureaucrats...I wonder how many of them keep a thesaurus handy just to come up with more complicated phrases?

Same sort of thing as cop-speak, "I exited the vehicle." :|
