I was watching a comedy special by Jimmy Carr. He gives out a number before the show that you can text and select ones are shown on a giant screen behind him and he responds.

One text that was sent in was something like "im am blind. I asked for cheapest seats in the house for me and my service dog. I got seated behind a stone pillar. A+ service staff."

I can see how it seems that I was questioning the scenario. But I was just making sure the commenter was okay given that this was their takeaway from the image. A Rorschach image reveals thoughts and preoccupations of the viewer.
