Yes, Pong! No, Snarky Reviews…

I stumbled on the Pong history, it’s delightful. I ventured into the “Snarky Reviews” episode and emerged baffled. The first review, from 2002, they laugh AT the review as being badly written. As in, “tired slice of cheese.” What could the reviewer possibly mean, they snicker. (It means you can see from the dry edges of the slices, the cheese is stale, it’s been exposed to air too long. How is this obscure, risibly ostentatious language?
Otherwise, sure, good fun.
