I remember, years ago, there was a Reddit post about what to do to avoid small talk at the hairdressers because OP found it uncomfortable.

The top reply was something like:

'Spaghetti-Os.

EDIT: Whoops, wrong post. Too bad, it stays.'

If was late at night when I read it and I had to stifle my laughing to avoid waking up my sleeping partner.

That's appallingly sweet. Grandpa looks tall!
