Oh, the things I watched just to keep up with campus small talk.
The dumb cartoon went to commercial break. “We’ll be back with more with more Seabenedict Cucumberbatch on Pennycade!”
The first commercial came on and I could feel Cassie’s hackles rising up beside me: A baby wearing nothing but a diaper and a mock football helmet toddled onto a mock football field. “It was the day of the big game at Monkeez stadium” the bodiless narrator said. The camera cut to a tight shot of babies in the stands, playing the parts of fans.
“But the star receiver couldn’t catch a pass,” the narrator continued. Tiny toy footballs bounced past the confused looking toddler. The camera panned down to a plain white diaper barely holding onto the kid’s hips. “And no wonder, there was an offensive leak in his diaper!”
