So glad to have girls…
posted in General |One of the developers in our daily meeting yesterday announced that he had found the perfect present for my kids, well, “for kids” and I am the only developer with kids. He steered us toward the shocking roulette. He had been given one for Christmas, and had played roulette seven or eight times. He thought it was the “best toy ever.”
I laughed. I literally laughed out loud. For several minutes. Because it’s totally a guy toy- and I have girls. My girls might try it once, but I’m pretty sure that after getting shocked once they’d be done. The developer got shocked four times. Yeah, I’m being sexist and over-generalizing, but … I think girl kids are smarter and don’t like getting nearly electrocuted.
