I bet you can't play this game. Oh yeah? Yeah!

(tags gaming, broken, kids these days)

Buzzcut observes his kids and ponders "The Medium Is Not The Message". The low-down is that the TV is visually broken (as in you can't see the center of the screen) and the kids still keep on playing. Heh. Why didn't he just ask his kids more details on why they are continuing to play? Well, the suspense makes the blog more interesting.

And oh yeah, the McLuhan he mentions is the same Marshall McLuhan that came up with the sound bite: "The medium is the message". But I like his other quote: "There is absolutely no inevitability as long as there is a willingness to contemplate what is happening." Thanks to The Quotations Page.
