I think this flash animated soy sauce commercial may be even weirder than the kitty porn ASCII flash. (Link to the soy sauce courtesy

In other news, I may not be able to code in TADS from scratch, but I speak enough OO conceptually to go look at the definitions for the defaults and find the bit that runs in response to a particular command. And while I stared at the thing in bafflement, I could pull it out, modify the message that gets printed appropriately, and add a line that toggles an attribute from 'nil' to 'true'. I'm sure there was a much more tidy way of writing that specific case, since the result is a duplication of the general case code with Stuff added, but hey! It runs! And it worked on the first run-through! Fluency can come with time, I'll settle for actually getting done what I want done.
