I tried giving an Etch-A-Sketch to a modern artist friend of mine. You know, one of those people who can stare at a blank canvas for hours and call it deep thinking? I handed it to him, and he just looked at me like I handed him a Rubik's Cube in ancient Greek. He said, "What am I supposed to do with this? Where's the 'undo' button?" Dude, it's not Photoshop; it's a pair of magic knobs and a screen! If Michelangelo had an Etch-A-Sketch, we'd have the Sistine Chapel Ceiling with stick figures.
Can you imagine if famous artists used Etch-A-Sketch? Van Gogh would be like, "Starry Night? More like Shaky Night." Picasso's "Guernica" would be a bull with six legs and a confused expression. And Jackson Pollock would be like, "I've been doing this for years; I just call it 'Shake and Splatter.'

So, in this digital age, where we have tablets and styluses that feel like magic wands, why does Etch-A-Sketch still exist? It's like the Nokia 3310 of the art world. You can throw it off a building, and it'll still work, but your artwork won't! I tried explaining Etch-A-Sketch to my niece, who's glued to her iPad. She looked at it, puzzled, and asked, "Is this some ancient game? Where do I download the app?" I'm like, "Honey, it's the OG touchscreen. Just with a lot more wrist action."
And don't get me started on the frustration of trying to draw a circle. It's like trying to find Waldo in a Where's Waldo book when you're cross-eyed. You start with good intentions, but by the end, it's a spiraled mess, and you're questioning the integrity of your motor skills.

You guys remember Etch-A-Sketch? That magical device where you'd draw something amazing, and then, in a blink of an eye, it's gone! It's like a temporary Picasso. You feel like an art genius for a moment, and then reality hits you like, "Well, that's the last time anyone will see my masterpiece." But the worst part is when you mess up! You're trying to draw a straight line, and suddenly, it looks like a roller coaster gone wrong. You think you can fix it, so you shake it, and instead of erasing, it just turns into abstract art. Now your cat looks like a potato with legs, and you're questioning your artistic abilities.
And why do they even call it an "Etch"-A-Sketch? It's more like a "Shake-Till-You-Quake"-A-Sketch. Imagine if we solved other problems in life like that. Can't balance your checkbook? Just shake it, and the numbers will rearrange themselves. Relationship issues? Shake it, and suddenly, you're both into pottery.

I think therapists should hand out Etch-A-Sketches instead of stress balls. Imagine going to a therapy session, and your therapist just hands you this red, squiggly-lined Etch-A-Sketch. "Draw your feelings," they'd say. I'd probably draw a little stick figure therapist saying, "This is your coping mechanism now." And when you're feeling overwhelmed, just give it a good shake. It's like shaking off the stress, but with a tangible result. It's cheaper than therapy, and if you get frustrated, you can always throw it against the wall. It's the only therapeutic tool that encourages violence.
So here's to the Etch-A-Sketch, the unsung hero of stress relief and questionable artistic expression!
