"Vienna Waits for You"?

Maybe "Analysis couch: Much needed, never used"?

Characters stomp around the stage with appendages (Hands, body up to the neck, feet, etc.) encased in cans of solidified ash while they engage in dialog.

Have one unknown stumbling around with his/her head encased.

Well, if you're having trouble finding your sneakers you really have no right to complain.

Real lateral thinking:

Even having an empty box in a cluttered area makes it more organized because it used to be the fraction

0 ÷ room volume = tidiness

and becomes

volume of box ÷ room volume = tidiness

Next question is

"How many boxes can you buy and fit in your living space?"

Evidence.

They think of other beings as extensions of – part of – themselves and grow frustrated when there is resistance to their will. Wouldn't you if....

Oh no! You didn't!

The pernicious monkey-paw O-Henry demon will be visiting us soon!

I've heard it said

"Tyranny is the deliberate removal of nuance."

At this point excision and recovery from a tumor is the most optimistic metaphor I can manage,

Mad respect for that reference, but they have a lot of tentacles and wires and hooks into vital systems. It's going to be a delicate operation to bring them to that moment.

A cold request?

Ordinarily I'd advise engagement because how else are we to learn new things? Or teach them.

Sadly, these days, I'd say it's perfectly ethical to decline.

Behavior like this all through their ranks and we know. in our personal lives, of people like this even if not directly.

It's like a variety of color blindness, but for context.

They not only seem to have no respect for others, they don't even *understand* what respect *IS*.

It's all transaction.

Curse this pay-wall!

This is of interest to me and I want to send it along to a graphic designer, but I'd be a jerk to send just send the first few paragraphs.

Heh. It's like that gif:

"On Bullsh*t" by Harry Frankfurt

"For the bullsh*tter, however, all these bets are off: he is
