From the outside looking in, everything looked completely ordinary. The problem was being on the inside, looking out. ↗

A brick could be used as a PRA, or Person Replacement Apparatus. Just give the brick a name, start talking to it, and before you know it you've got a friend for life. Say, do you want to brick swap?

A brick could be used as a symbol for the kind of life I’m trying to build. The question now is, what kind of life am I trying to build?

And no matter how cool the Matrix made looking at code seem, computer programmers are even weirder than authors. ↗
