Random word image association

Imagine having a problem. Then imagine solving it using a random word that has no perceptible relationship to the problem.

A good instance of this would be:

PROBLEM: Broken Down Car
RANDOM WORD: Rain


From this problem,we can come to two possible solutions. One is that the rain contains water...maybe the car broke down because of overheating, hence the water from the rain can be used to cool down the engine. Secondly, rain could be the cause of the breakdown hence by eliminating/shielding from the rain, the car could work again.

In this situation, the problem is approached from two varying angles, each will a conflicting solution depending on the situation.
