Something to lighten the mood

We have some autistic people where I work, like all people they have their strengths and weaknesses, one guy (who is profoundly autistic) used it to make himself better at his job, he kept meticulous records of all his work, so if any replacements were required, he had all the relevant dimensions, plus he wanted to do everything properly, without cutting corners; however another person with autism deals with customers, and his total lack of empathy is no help there; horses for courses. I'm an introvert, so there's LOADS of occupations that I would be totally useless at.
Say on thing about autistics, they can remember a phone number, oh, and the time and date you first told them the number.

There were more than a few lines from Chris Rock’s “Selective Outrage” that caused me to smile, but taken out of context they might seem mean spirited, and none of them are safe for work.
Actually, reminded me more than a bit of Carlin’s brilliant “Soft Language”
 
Sadly, neither of those two approaches would really work. Both the popcorn and the M80 would get soggy and not really work.
It seems like you could put the M80 in a ziplock bag in order for it to work. Swallowing a bad of popcorn seems difficult.

In other thoughts, many drug mules may transport drugs like cocaine in a bag up the butt or sewn in a roll of fat. Why oh why did the anti-drug campaigns miss out on a better scenario than the frying egg thing.
Coke users: You know if that bag ruptures they are not really going to throw it away. Just a thought.
 
Last night's cinema hardly lightened my mood. It was frankly heavy going, though educational about the competitive world of Classical music:

The highlight for me, and I notice such details, was that Lydia Tar had a picture of genius mathematician David Hilbert on her apartment wall:

This is a look I cultivate in my personal style...

My mood, however, was considerably lightened by an exhibition of famous scenes from the movies and some of the Stars:

What is not to like? 😀
 
I went into the dentists yesterday.
I asked what he charged for treatment and he said he had 3 levels of charges.
1/ Straight teeth, no pain and no blood. £1000
2/ Slightly un-straight teeth, a little pain and a little blood. £100
3/ Teeth all pointing in different directions, screaming in agony and blood up the walls and on the ceiling. £10
I said I will take the cheap option, will send the wife in tomorrow.
