What CAN I say?

 

Some slides are just irredeemably dull, and this one is.... very dull.

What do I say about it?

...ummmm....

Bonus - French King Charles VI suffered from glass delusion which is a delusion in which people believe themselves to be made of glass and thus liable to shatter. He was reported to have wrapped himself in blankets to prevent his buttocks from breaking and had iron rods put into his clothing.
