It wasn't a carnival, it was a candy themed amusement park, and one of the stands was "make your own lolipop", and I wasn't looking, and fuck - I got stung on my tongue by a wasp.
That's probably the easiest connection for me to make if I had been part of that conversation.
It's not a "hack" per se, but at least I got lots of free icecream following. Until my parents got to thinking that ice cubes are free..

Ehh, all brains kinda work like that, though

They do, but not all the time. Most people can stay on one subject. With some ND individuals, particularly those with ADHD, one subject is every subject depending on what you are thinking at the time.

Carnivals could have easily become candy making videos, because spinning cotton candy is like the process of candy making on a tiny level, but hey, have you seen them break a candy bubble in this vid?

Candy like that is actually really hot and I bet those burns suck if you get one. I grabbed a stick in the fire once and didn't see the hot coal on the end, so I could only imagine what molten candy would do to you.

Its basically molding edible magma. Speaking of magma, did you know that Old Faithful is an underground volcano and if it erupted it would probably destroy half of North America? At least, that's what I heard.

From here we could go onto apocalypse talk, National Parks, or even the Yellowstone TV series. The world is your oyster and your brain will not stop.

No, their thoughts terminate at the natural end point and neurodivergent people’s brains do not seem to do this.

Right, it can vary but I think most people in this example would stop at thinking about how the fairgrounds were used for the rodeo.
