Blame It On Terrain
Your average 10-year-old, no matter how reasonable and well-behaved he may seem on the outside, harbors one burning desire: to crush! To conquer! To see his enemies driven before him and hear the lamentations of their moms!
The Tyco Terrainiac RC Vehicle understands. Its Sphere Drive system uses three wheels – one gigunda, two normalunda – to carry it over dirt, grass, gravel, sand, and standing water without so much as breaking a radio-controlled sweat. Most RC vehicles are rendered ineffectual by minor changes in surface conditions. Pathetic, even. Not the Tyco Terrainiac. Rough terrain gets treated the way that Poland got treated by the Panzers, only without the atrocities and war crimes.
Psychologists might say that the destructive, domineering impulses of boys are simply a compensatory way of coping with the frightening world of adulthood looming in the near future. We say they’re just monsters. But either way, the Tyco Terrainiac will meet that need, at least until he’s old enough to start driving and do some real damage.
