"We also contacted people with epilepsy in the community and the overwhelming response was that 'brainstorming' implies no offence to people with epilepsy, and that any implication that the word is offensive to people with the condition is taking political correctness too far." People found it more offensive that the question was being asked of them, she said.
People with epilepsy wanted to send the surveyors out to an island in the pacific

I wouldn't necessarilly categorize your remark as non-pc. I would, however, consider it a symptom of terminal assholeitis.
As someone who experiences non-epilepsy related seizures, is about as offensive as the term "salad bar".
