    At lunch 8 yo asks me to tell him a scary story. Afterward: Me: How was that? 8 yo: Great, but there are some ways it could be improved. Me: (piqued, but also curious) Really? How? 8 yo: Do you want me to retell it? Me: Ok. He retells it. His version is better.

        Great example of talk to users. Hopefully the next iteration of it (grandson?) will be 10x better!!! 😂

        Scary story: WeWork SPACs from the grave with a new portfolio of Masa authored NFTs on its balance sheet after merging with Nikola, thunder rolls in the distance as the Reddit horde descends.

        Did the story remain the same, but just the way he told it was more gripping? Or was rhe story embellished?!

        Have you thought of compiling all these 8yo and 6yo stories as a book for parents? You can sell it on GumRoad and put the proceeds into Bitcoin/YC. 😅
