You know what I don’t want to do?

Put your hand in a blender?

That too. But when we make toys, there’s some I don’t want to make.

All right. Like what?

Any toy that takes an old awesome game and makes it dumber.

Dumb things.

We shouldn’t do them.

Sure, but…

Like those handheld units you play hide and seek with now. They’re little proximity sensors and they beep faster or slower when they get near each other…

Oh man. Because actual seeking was too difficult.

Exactly!

Yeah we won’t be making those.

Or anything like them!

Where do you stand on Battleship?

I’m torn, you know?

Me too. I loved just needing graph paper.

I thought, when I was a kid, that was what graph paper was for.

Nice!

But the fun of the electronic ones…

I know! It’s annoying.

It is, I bet most kids don’t even ever think of just playing it on paper.

Now we’re just getting old and cranky.

But it’s a valid thing to be old and cranky about.

Doesn’t everyone assume whatever they are old and cranky about is worth it?

I suppose, unless they’re just old and cranky about being old and cranky.

Meta-cranks!

The Meta-old sounds like an awesome comic!

Or Steve Guttenberg movie.

Why’d ya have to go ruin it for me?

Not a Cocoon fan?

Uhm. No.

But they were on a boat!

Oh no.

On a boat! Old people, on a boat!

There is no auto-tune, so it looses.

We might have to auto-tune Cocoon.

Can we?

If we finish these phone calls.

Oh, we were doing client calls weren’t we?

Before you started ranting, yes.

Fine, calls first, auto-tune second.
