I guess it's... cheating, a little? But you can influence where the ball goes by tilting the machine a little. If you do it too much, the machine will pick up on it and make you lose, but if it's just a little bit, it's fine.

Mm. But it had an effect, didn't it? And if I hit it harder than that...

That's why you have to be gentle!

Right? I'm surprised to see you so taken with it, though.

That's true... I mean, in some ways I'm grateful for the other week where I wanted to sleep all the time since there wasn't anything else to do.
