"And what's Daddy doing?"

"I'm playing a game. It's called World of Warcraft."

"He's flying!"

"Yeah! He's riding on the back of a Griffin."

"It's a bird."

"Actually, Sammy, it's got the head and wings of an eagle, but the body of a lion. It's called a Griffin."

"...It has WINGS, Daddy. It's a bird."

"It's kind of a make believe--"

"Bird."

"Look, I've got a dictionary, I can--"

"It's a bird, Daddy."
