This is, and I quote, "Mathter Clayton and hith Thuper Robo-Pincher!" The little braggadocio spent a lot of time, on this particular evening, telling us how he could crush our heads into "thmithereens"! Mostly, he just made people sit really really still while he poked them in the face a bunch, trying to grab their noses. It was a lot of "Wait... wait... I got it! No, wait..."Being the good adult role model that I am, I took him aside and told him that until his aim improved he should just go up to people, snap it open and closed a few times and yell, "I just crushed all your dreams!" And that when they laughed, just say, "No, no, they were actually quite sad..." He only kind of got it, but as this tack involved less accuracy and more mindless crushing, he was all for it. I watched proudly as he halted a conversation to shove the robo-pincher in their faces, snap it over and over, and yell, "I'm crushing all your dreams! They're sad!" On a related braggadocio note: I also taught him to pop his collar and say, "Piiimp!" Good times. I'm sure they love this kid at pre-school. --ATay
