    You kids today! They were 5¼" floppies, dagnabbit and we had to make them ourselves out of leaves—which we couldn't even afford—we had to steal those from the rich neighbors across town to which we had to walk in eight feet of snow, uphill backward both ways at the same time with the sun beating on our backs as the sand filled our eyes with not a trace of water visible for miles and constantly slipping on the ice, breaking our bones over and over—bones which were on loan from the charitable twelve-year-old boy next door.

    Tyrone calls you up, you know, in the game, and he says, "I can dig more clams than you, stupid!" And you've got to say, "Nuh-uh, boy!" And then y'all gotta race down to the beach with your buckets and your shovels. And the object of the game is to find parking.

    Don't you see what genetically enhanced smart towels like these are capable of? You get out of the shower and dry yourself off. But even after you're dry, the towel makes you more dry.

Perhaps the Persistant Objects could just be an abstraction for browser cookies or at least use the cache directory while being plugged.
