Herbert sat on the sofa, remote in hand, complaining, "This new television is a nightmare! The configuration is all wrong. I can't even find the sports channel!"

Margot, entering the room, sighed. "Did you even read the specification manual, Herbert? It probably explains everything."

Herbert scoffed. "Manuals are for people who enjoy wasting time. I'll figure it out eventually�?� or Brian will."

Brian, overhearing from the hallway, poked his head in. "Did someone say my name? Is there a new video game that needs conquering?"

"No video games, Brian," Margot said. "Just your father struggling with technology again."

Herbert grumbled, "It's supposed to make life easier! It should be simple! Everything should be in accordance with�?� common sense!"

Brian smirked. "Maybe you should try unplugging it and plugging it back in. That usually works."

Herbert, exasperated, threw a cushion at Brian, a playful punch that landed harmlessly on his shoulder. "Very funny. Maybe you should ask your mother, otherwise I will enforce parental control on your game console for a week."

Margot, shaking her head and smiling, picked up the manual. "Alright, alright. Let�?Ts see if we can make this TV functional before the big game starts."

Later, after Margot had successfully navigated the TV�?Ts settings, Herbert was happily watching his sports channel, surrounded by snacks. Brian was playing a game quietly.

Herbert muttered, mostly to himself, "Maybe manuals aren't so bad after all... sometimes."
