year is 2025>my young child walks into my home office
>"Whoa, what's that?" he asks
>he's pointing to my computer
>I reply "It's my computer."
>"But it's just a box... isn't that your computer?" he asks while pointing at my LCD monitor
>mfw
>"No, son, that's just the screen."
>"What happens if that box stops working?"
>"Then I take it apart and replace the broken part."
>"But I thought that was against the law? You mean you don't buy a new computer?"
>"No, I built this computer years ago. It's not illegal to open a homebuilt computer yet. Heh, I've only had to add another 16 GB of RAM and install a new HoloDisc drive, but it's still the same computer I've had since you were a baby."
>he looks confused, then says, "Okay," before walking out to play on the family widescreen iDroid Home Tablet Computer™, with 24/7 biometric Facebook webcam tracking based on the compulsory RFID chip embedded in his neck thanks to lobbying by corporations to "leave no child left untracked", in the living room

>"Which words, honey?"
>"Pr... priva-cy."
