Remember how boring voting was before Cup and Ball? Self-portrait by Ducreux, 1783.
While I was standing in line at the polling station, I Cup and Balled to pass the time. The line was inching forward, giving me some time to practice my Flow and the other quiet moves. A man a few rows of people a head of me whispered loudly to the unresponsive stranger, “Small things amuse small minds.” Immediately I realised that I must be at least a little annoying; its easy to forget that most people aren’t immersed in Cup and Ball culture, of which the click of a flawless Jerk Pump is central. Were I not in the wrong and if the toadish, track pant clad, philistine had addressed his remark to me, I’d explain that particle physics, the study of the very small, is an example of the smallest things amusing some of the greatest minds…
Just as human ingenuity solved the problem of killing people from far away, your Cup and Ball could be Quieter! A better use for felt than nineteenth century hats!?

hahaha, good comeback! Perhaps if he had been sporting a “Paris Beau” in addition to his track pants, you might not have been offended so.
