The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for November 30, 2022

It’s a virtual toy.

The one with the most ads on TV and the Internet

He won’t know until Christmas day when his friends tell him what they got.

Like Santa will be able to afford it.

Ahh . . . bein cool’s for snowflakes

Remember when the latest greatest toy was the box a new appliance came in?

If only cool kids know about it now, then how would 2 to 3 hundred-year-old Santa know what it is?

Medicare!

Wilberforce may never get to know what all the really cool kids want for Christmas, the really cool kids don’t know from one moment to the next…

That’s the story of my life, by the time I catch up on what’s hot, the phase has passed

I always asked for money. Surprise me. Woo hoo. Now I asked for peace and quiet and shut that door!

The one that’s the hardest to find!

It’ll be expensive.

I loved getting toys, but I never cared for what’s trending or popular. I cared for hands on toys like trains, erector sets and microscopes. I suspect Wilbur wants the trendy toy because he thinks that will get him in with the popular kids at school. It won’t.

Good ole Wilber Thornapple, his brain works just like Brutus’s, it hard to start, has no power, and wheezes to a stop all too often.

So google the greatest toy that only the coolest kids know about, but do it on someone else’s computer to avoid the spam.

Wiberforce you will be happier with the toy you want the most rather than a toy some other kids want, even if they are considered cool.

Sometimes moms have to get what they can find. It’s surely easier now with the internet. That reminds me, I need to do my shopping soon! I am late for my usual shopping.

Thinking back to my childhood, I can’t remember any time when I wanted some toy that was popular. For the most part, that’s carried on into my adulthood, too.

I want an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle!

But Santa already knows and you will just love it……

i’ll just be happy if i don’t get coal in my stocking again this year…

It’s probably too late and already sold out.

great start… :}
