Calvin's (Calvin and Hobbes) classmates shout "BATS ARENT BUGS" at him as he gives a presentation.

Counterpoint: keep him as is, cast Jerry Seinfeld as a ferengi bar owner that responds to his entrance with, "Hello, hoo-man"

Love that this is how i found out there's a new season.

The boring answer is because it has the trappings of a conversational search engine, and typing "timer" into one of those has worked for 20 years.

Ditto for simple math problems i've observed folks do same with.

A perfectly valid customer behavior for a dishonestly marketed product.

I'm happy to report it seems to be alive in my 7yos circles.

The youth are refreshingly direct.
