aren't you glad this was the first video post

[ He straightens up to his full height of... not very tall, rearranging his face into a practiced superciliousness. ]
It's all well and good to go around claiming to be angels and devils and what have you, but clearly this gadget's more than just an elaborate typewriter, isn't it? I suggest you all show yourselves! Look, I've done so first, as a gesture of goodwill.

Who are you talking to, sweetie?
