There are some Star Trek fans weirdly obsessed with “decorum” and they really fixate on how Holly Hunter sits in the captain’s chair on STARFLEET ACADEMY. One guy left a comment on the official FB whining about it and so Captain Janeway herself responded to drop the hammer

The fact Nigel Farage's company is called Thorn in the Side Limited is instructive. He doesn't want to run things; too much work. He doesn't want to solve things; too much thought. He just wants to be an annoyance. The classic backseat driver.

As well as writing a damned fine crime novel that rattles along at speed, Agatha Christie has a knack for writing stuff like this.
Frequently.
There's a lot more chuckles in the Marple books than I remember when I read them over *checks notes* 30 years ago.
