Reminds me of a drafting teacher, who would spot someone in deep concentration trying to figure out a projection of some complex surface onto paper (yes, paper, I'm that old), walk up behind them and gently ask "got it all fingered out yet?"(*), thus causing them to crack up and totally lose it.
* Yes, I'm even so old that this sort of behaviour in a classroom wasn't unacceptable. Most technical subjects were less than female friendly if not outright misogynist.
