Can'T Hear You Today Mom

What?
In a minute.
Bing. Ding. Sing. Ming. Ling.
Pow!
Just a second, okay?
Uh-huh.
Bing. Ding. Sing. Ming. Ling.
Pop!
No, I'm NOT playing a video game!
Bing. Ding. Sing. Ming. Ling.
Mug!
Bing. Ding. Sing. Ming. Ling.
Crumb! It's a dud; the kingdom did not open.
What kind of stupid game is this?
Bing. Ding. Sing. Ming. Ling.
Pow!

No, Mom, it's not a good time. He can't hear you today.
