Dust to Dust
I’m putting this camcorder’s dust-proofness to the test
“Hey buddy, come on in. Sorry the place is a mess.”
“That’s ok it can’t be…OH LORD.”
“Yeah, sorry.”
“This place looks like an ancient tomb. When is the last time you dusted?”
“Never. I have never dusted. And do you know why?”
“You’re disgusting?”
“No! It’s because I bought a Samsung 1080p HD Camcorder.”
“…And..?”
“Well, it’s a pretty rugged gizmo. It’s sand- and water-proof. But most importantly it’s dust-proof. That means I can let my apartment get as dusty as I want, and not fret about clogging up my handheld camcorder. It’s so freeing!”
“Wait, you bought that camcorder to justify living like a derelict?”
“Exactly. It’s got other features too, like full 1080p HD resolution, an anti-fog lens, and something called a built-in USB arm. But frankly I stopped paying attention to the features after ‘dustproof’.”
“Oh my god, watch out behind you. A monster!”
“Wha – oh don’t worry. That’s just The Beast, my cat.”
“That’s a cat??”
“Yeah, he’s just a little dusty. Here kitty kitty. He’s actually the star of my YouTube channel – The Beast Files. I used my Samsung camcorder to film him jumping in boxes and stuff. It was super easy to upload to my computer, and people love that stuff.”
“I think I heard about The Beast Files.”
“Yeah, some people misunderstand, and think it’s footage of some mythical beast. Like Sasquatch or The Abominable Snowman or whatever.”
“Can I pet him?”
“Sure! If you don’t mind getting a little dusty.”
“OH MY GOD. It just disintegrated in my hand! It was nothing but dust…”
“You’re right. Luckily I caught it all on tape or nobody would believe us. Now, what happened to my cat?”
