Scuse me? Since when was building things out of LEGO considered
"suffering?" I sure wasn't "suffering" when I was a kid and got my 6980
Galaxy Commander... I was thrilled! It was the biggest spaceship of the
LEGO lineup at the time! And look, it's primarily made from blue and
white! Even when I mistook a 2x2 slope for a 2x3 slope and had to go
back a few steps to fix it, I still wasn't "suffering".
Why not make it REAL easy and just fill all the packages with POOPs?
Then we won't have to make the li'l youngsters suffer through the agony
of having to assemble all those little, different parts. It'll be lots cheaper,
too!
We sure wouldn't want anyone to have to use their brains... that might be
HARD.
Come on, man. Let's give kids a bit more credit for their intelligence.
