Tilt

Squiggle was walking around the house yesterday, counting to himself. I realized he had reached the nineties and was curious to know what would happen, so I stopped to listen.

“ninety-six”

“ninety-seven”

“ninety-eight”

“ninety-nine”

Here he paused for a moment and thought. Then:

“Zero-zero!”

Oh, great. Kid’s got a rollover error.
