Conversation this morning over breakfast:
Ben: You know what I hate about Pokemon?
Me: That it teaches children that there are no real-life consequences of their actions?
Ben: No.
Me: That it's basically cock-fighting for children?
Ben: No, no, I fully condone that!
Me: Uh...
Ben: These things are bred for fighting and domination; they shouldn't be so cute! I mean, if you're going to breed a lightning rat, he should be fierce-looking! They're too adorable!
Me: I'm going to butter my English muffin now.
Yeah, a lot of our conversations go like that.
