We used to gargle with Disprin (a soluble painkiller mostly used by children). I hated it. I'm sure it did make a difference, but it made me gag.

Today I was irritated by a news report on the design of a new generation of engines/ fuel that may enable us to travel further into space. Black female presenter. No issues there.. But then she takes the information given by the white male scientist and breaks it down for us dummies by showing us her hairdryer.

Does Professor Brian Cox ever demonstrate the principles of physics using his hairdryer?
Did Sir Patrick Moore ever do so when speaking about space?

Errr...... no.
I guess at least she wasn't made to make reference to weaves or curried goat.
