      Let him watch all the television he wants. Stop letting him interact with people and things.

        Let him interact with people and things, but in a retirement home where he belongs.

          No I’m thinking a bunker with 9 foot thick concrete walls, no door, a 1.5 inch diameter hole for air and McDonald’s french fries, a television and one of those brown blankets they wrap you in when your house burns down. And maybe if you put me in a good enough mood I wouldn’t turn a garden hose down the air shaft.

      “Old man yells at cloud” isn’t the issue, “Old man can order airstrike on cloud” is.
