Great for tough jobs! Like parenting!

Oh man! I can’t wait to play laser tag, Dad! It’s my favorite thing ever!

“About laser tag, Johnathan…”

But dad! You promised me laser tag on my birthday!

“Yeah, I did didn’t I? well, what if told you had an even cooler game for us to play right here at home?”

Even cooler than laser tag?

“Yeah! WAY cooler than Laser Tag! It’s called… umm… Shadow Shooter!”

That sounds pretty awesome! How does it work?

“Well, you take this Energizer Handheld 3 Watt Hard Case LED Flashlight, and then you chase me around shining light on… I mean, er, shooting light orbs at my shadow!”

Why?

“Because… my shadow has become evil… or something… and it’s RIGHT BEHIND ME! AHHH! You wanna save your dad, don’t you John-boy?”

But what’s the challenge? I mean, dad, I’ve seen you on the treadmill. It’s not going to be that hard to catch you…

“Well, umm… I get a hand held mirror to deflect the light!”

But why would you be deflecting my light if I’m trying to save you?

“Because… I’m… a confused soul! Despite it’s betrayal, I still love my shadow, you know? Kind of like how things are with me and your mom.”

...This all sounds pretty lame, dad.

“What do you mean this is lame? How could it possibly be lame with a flashlight like this Energizer? It’s got a shatterproof lens, stainless steel side guards, you name it! You can even drop it from 15 feet up and it’ll be fine!”

Why would I be fifteen feet off the ground. I'm like 4’9”.

“That’s the thing about Shadow Shooter! You NEVER KNOW WHAT’S GONNA HAPPEN!”

I want to go back to mom’s now.
