Arbitrary #1wc thread about G-Shocks with @DeeperBlue

…ugh

I have to convince you why this:

is somehow superior than this:

and tell you in a way that if you were 6 you would understand. Thanks @Deeperblue and @Aurelian , this is contrived content at its most strained.

  • It’s easier to read

  • It’s easier to use

  • It glows in the dark when you’ve been in the sun

  • It was designed for people who used to play with bombs, so it’s cool (do kids play with explosives anymore?)

  • It’s Italian, so Mario would wear it, and even when karting

  • It has a much more comfortable strap so it will fit your wrist better

  • You don’t need to wind it or change the battery

  • You can swim in it

  • It upsets Uncle @Aurelian every time you wear it

  • Uncle @Porthole wears it, so it’s cool

Happy now?

I’m off to down copious amount of tea.

This is less #1wc now and more if Kafka designed an Easter Egg hunt for children. There are no eggs, and you are no longer human… get back in the sea.

Anyway, what 6 year old reads? This is TikTok levels of digestible information. Why is this better? BECAUSE IT JUST IS… LOOK OVER THERE: BTS!!!

Years from now your kids will look down on the tech of today as some do the same for tech of yesterday. There is no wrong answer, only the right answer at the time. Old tech has the warm glow of being tried and tested while the new is fun and innovative.

I don’t think the meaning is hidden, it’s joy and happiness. I guess it’s only hidden if those things aren’t an option.

One more time for good measure!
