We all have been in places and situations where conversation all of a sudden stucks. Most times followed by a deafening and uncomfortable silence.
It can be in a waiting room, at the dinner table and even at a party.
In these, or similar kind of cases, it's handy to have an icebreaker to break those silences.
Useless facts and subjects for small talk.

Seen it too. It's possible with very large paper. But tried it with A4 myself. And after 6 times folding, the 7th can't be really called a folded paper.
And yeah those ants; not always 'busy busy busy' so it seems ...

Maybe he invented the thing to have an alternative way of drilling that tooth. Turn on the chair, let the patient shake and put the drill in his mouth without even turning it on. Piece of cake I would say.
