Sherlock Holmes deduces a toddler from charging port scratches in viral joke
granawkins · x · 2026-09-19
A viral Sherlock Holmes pastiche: Holmes spots small scratches around a suspect's charging port. Watson guesses "an alcoholic fumbling with his charger," but Holmes corrects him—alcoholics forget to charge their phones entirely; this person has a toddler. A clever riff on deductive reasoning that's resonating widely in tech circles.
