Ah, words. Wordy, wordy words. At VERBOSITEE, we adore them. And we hate it when they’re mistreated. Accompany us, if you will, on an exploration of American language. Together, we’ll marvel at the trends that keep our language fresh, lament the decline of accepted conventions, and lambaste the ill-informed addle-pates who habitually butcher our common tongue.
Make a public declaration of your own verbal acumen. Contact us to get your own VERBOSITEE, like those worn by our authors.

This might just look funny, but I'm interpreting this as a harsh criticism of this type of overstimulating children's toys and the long-term damage they have on attention span, memory, and learning ability.

Nope, they just throw out a bunch of flashing lights, colors and sounds to interrupt the natural synthesis of neurons. They should call those videos Baby Attention-Span-Of-A-Fruit-Fly.

This.
TV for babies is an absurd concept. The entire universe is new to them. A shadow on a wall or the fact that they have hands is grand entertainment.
