eating soup with a fork: slow and messy.

We're a long way from what anybody would call dire straits,

Playing without the fundamentals is like eating without a knife and fork. You make a mess.

Even things like dressing, cleaning themselves, eating, handling a knife and fork are difficult tasks. For the staff and also for the patients, it's a stage of the disease where you have to support them a lot with their failing capacities.

It's not as though a 17-year-old is going to know about Campbell's soup cans and Marilyn Monroe.

Good manners: The noise you don't make when you're eating soup.
