Calling in version 2.0 for diner will be a hassle.
I would definately say that it's an original concept. Personally, if I had a child, I wouldn't call it Version 2.0! However, if that is how a parent wishes to label his/her child, then fair enough. It's no worse than having 8 George Foreman Jnrs I s'pose! LOL

I just can't help but feel a bit sorry for the kid after reading the excerpt. It just felt like the child was being labelled as a computer, and not a living/breathing, human entity. That, in itself, is a little distressing.

In the World of today, that kid is going to go through emotional HELL at school! Something, that nobody needs...

Whatever the case maybe, it seems like Mattitude (Injoke for WWE fans) is indeed infecting us all!
