I don’t understand how… well no, then it’s half the size… Yeah, but then it breaks up. It breaks apart like this… But then if you keep folding it, then it keeps breaking… and then everything has to be folded. And then it’s _this._ And I don’t want _this._ I want LARGE BREAD, so that I can put _this_, so then it’s like _this_. But _this_ doesn’t work, because then it’s all… Look! would you be holding this? No! Alright, A. Exhibit, exhibit A. And now we move onto this… Look, look; Who’s in here? No one. And in here, there’s a little guy, look! So, it’s a complete catastrophe!
