“Helen Keller could’ve have seen that one coming.

Problem is, that no one under 50 will “get” this.

I caught myself at a meeting describing an IT software change as something akin to a Busby Berkeley production number. I then had to explain that this was a reference to elaborate, complex, ridiculously overblown production numbers in 1930’s musicals...!
