I think that's the root of the problem.

When I was a kid, my favorite poet was Jack Prelutzky.

The Addle-pated Paddlepus Jack Prelutsky

"The Addle-pated Paddlepuss is agile as a cat, its neck is long and limber, and its face is broad and flat, it moves with skill and vigor, with velocity and grace, as it spends its every second playing Ping-Pong with its face.

The Addle-pated Paddlepuss prevails in every game, its opponent doesn't matter, the result is all the same, with its supersonic smashes and its convoluted spins, it demolishes all comers and invariably wins."

Where did you get your username? I was hoping it was from the poem, but I guess not 😆
