Via Ben, comes this from a NYC teacher:
Today in our weekly PD it was mentioned that the region doesn’t want us to use the term “bullet points” anymore because it has a negative connotation.
I guess we need to start calling them Nerf points?

“Bullet Points” Shot Down By Anti-Gun School Board. Sanity Blown Away.
Guess they won’t be drinking Coor’s at the retirement parties either. (Silver Bullet and all that.) What jerks!
“Moron points” or “Management points”. But I repeat myself.
This will lead to a niggardly use of typographical language.
I swear I’m reading the blog backwards today. Marc stole my comment on “Are factual statements racist?”
Dang. I always get in trouble when I use that word. I should have taken Standard Mischief’s advice from that previous post.
We also need a new word for the caret (^) because the caret implies the stick and the stick implies punishment and corporal punishment is wrong.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
