An autistic hypnotist has reasonably adjusted his job role by masking his lack of eye contact with clever trickery, it has been rumoured.
Anand Trivedi, 49, manages to avoid making eye contact with his subjects by looking between, or around, their eyeballs.
Trivedi explained: “They say eye contact is an integral part of lulling people into a trance-like state – but I find infodumping about chronometry just as effective, if not more.”
“You are getting sleeeeeeepy,” continued Trivedi, before launching into a 2-hour explainer about the difference between chronometry and horology.”
“If that doesn’t work, I have all sorts of tricks up my sleeve,” Trivedi added, before reaching into his sleeve and pulling a handkerchief laced with chloroform.
Christine Smout, who came to Trivedi for help quitting smoking, commented: “God that was boring. Anyone got a light?”
