Invaded

Small Boy has made a replicator.

As we all know, replicators are just high tech legos.

I said, "Oh, no! You've brought a replicator into the house! Hopefully, it won't want to consume our low-technology house..."

Small Boy thought it might eat his legos.

Did it amuse anyone else when the replicators had to eat a former Soviet submarine, which made them unable to leave the sub because they would be vulnerable to sea water? *snickers*

That was weird, that sea water thing!!!! But if it amused the CK Friends Unit, then its task was accomplished.

I do worry, though. Small Boy may have unleased a power beyond anyone's ability to control. Does your renter's policy include property damage by replicators? Better check.

Hee! SB is the cutest! (Except for my nephews of course, but they are too young for legos or Stargate at the moment.)

That made me laugh at first -- what, subs disintegrate within a few hours of being put in the water? -- but there was something about them shorting out, too, so I supposed it had to do with the conductive properties of steel rather than rusting.

Argh! No! It was supposed to be a joke on inferior Soviet technology! Grrrr. Apparently I *was* the only one... *snickers*

Naw, I went there for a minute, but it wasn't that funny. If they'd been playing it as a joke it would have worked, but it was an actual plot point. Reality squick -- if the replicators would have fallen apart in sea water, then there's no way the sub would have made it across the ocean. *shrug* Stupid reality squick.
