MEME REFERENCE

skinner telescope

Use skinner telescope when focus collides with understanding, and that mismatch becomes the point of the conversation.

What it expresses

A telescope's focus contrasts with the observer's lack of understanding.

Example

For example, when someone tries to understand something but fails.

When not to use it

Avoid skinner telescope when the situation lacks both focus and understanding; the image would suggest the wrong relationship.
