Surely, if he knows what *does* hurt, then for any random bit you name that isn’t the same bit as the one he knows hurts, the odds of “No” being the right answer are a lot better than even.

After observing Dante’s behavior, I’ve concluded that babyhood is just like one big, sparsely implemented IF game that keeps adding content and depth as you go.

>X BLOCK
The block is red and fuzzy.

>GET BLOCK
Taken.

>SHAKE BLOCK
Nothing happens.

>PUSH BLOCK
Nothing happens.

>PUT BLOCK ON TABLE
The block is now on the table.

>PUSH BLOCK
The block falls off the table!
