That, and it's a very good justification for almost any toy.
Listen here buddy. Let's get this straight: my essential survival gear are
not toys. They are serious life-saving devices that have
no play value whatsoever. They are absolutely necessary to the welfare of myself and others for miles around. They are totally non-frivolous and have no entertainment value. For example, that new Prybaby I'm ordering needs the high-voltage titanium snakeskin finish to make it, um, more visible in dim light, see? It's an absolute necessity, totally guided by logic and a mature approach to being prepared. Just cause I'm going to cradle it like a baby and sleep with it under my pillow does not make it a toy in any way. I know all you fine gentlemen agree with me.
P.S. Did I mention that my wife sometimes like to browse through this forum?
