I don’t know the context of the Smarties sketch, but my interpretation gave me a project idea: a device that crushes one Smartie at a time, and then blows the dust away.
It could be triggered each time someone walks up to it, so the smartie dust could actually be blown towards you.
I started filling out the Project Overview Template and I think it’s feasible…
IIRC (which is unlikely) there was something about the bit/nibble/byte thing that started to turn into a roll of Smarties.
I wish these were the British Smarties, which are superior not only to US Smarties but also M&Ms. However, crushing them and blowing the dust would leave chocolatey mess over participants. Wait, what was the problem?
