"How do blind people manage to driive cars, because it must be difficult to see to read maps?!

To my shame, from myself, in a tiring journey, with a driver too simply _would_ not take a couple of minutes to stop, so that we coudl put the light on, so that I could actually see the map, (as it was by then to dark to see). Damn it really woudl have been faster to do it tht way. I did realise how silly it was before I said it, but figured if I do say that out loud, what the heck,w e both get a much needed laugh.

His response:

“Mom. Does the kind really matter?”

“Which one says ‘Shut up, Beavis’?”

“Uh, that would be Butthead.”

That was my sister, trying to figure out which one was the blond one and which was the brunette character.
