Heh! It's really fun when you hit the aisles at something like Toys R Us or your local
video store and walk out with an armful of whatever to the disdain of those watching
you - but heck, it's fun! My favourite trick when coming across someone looking down
their nose at you for the Razor plushie, Kats drawing/cel, ac-figure purchase etc is to
take a long, hard look at the individual deriding you and ask yourself "do I really want
to be anything like *them*??!". The answer is always "no", and if "maturity" means you
have to give up playing with your toys - I ain't having any of it!

Besides, as far as it goes, cartoon characters like the Kats are more fun than
80 percent of the people I meet who spend an inordinate amount of time worrying
about RRSP's and Mutual Funds.
