From that day on, RoundedTB wasn’t just a feature. He was a legend. And every device in Circuit City requested his gentle touch—not because they wanted to be soft, but because they learned that sometimes, the most powerful thing you can be is rounded.
RoundedTB kept going, rounding every corner of the virus until Splinter had no edges left to hurt anyone. He became a harmless, smooth, rolling pebble of code that simply bounced away into the recycle bin. roundedtb
