Hyper Pet Flippy Flopper Dog Frisbee

Dad

I got this for you. What's your initial read?

Boldo

It's light. Too light. Feels like someone took a regular frisbee and hollowed out everything that matters. But I've carried it around twice, so there's something there. I just haven't decided what yet.

Dad

Let's talk smells. That always comes first with you.

Boldo

Plastic. That's it. Not the good plastic smell—the new plastic smell that fades after two hours. There's a faint rubber scent underneath, but whoever made this didn't think about what a dog actually wants to smell when he's supposed to care about something.

Dad

You've been weirdly quiet about this one. What's going on?

Boldo

I'm conflicted. The thing actually flies weird. It wobbles and flips in ways that make me want to chase it, which is infuriating because I didn't want to want to chase it. The texture is acceptable—rubber coating doesn't feel cheap. Wait, is that bacon I smell from the kitchen? Did you open something?

Dad

Does it matter that the cat seems indifferent to it?

Boldo

No. Good. The cat shouldn't have one. That would ruin this entire thing. Actually, she knocked it under the refrigerator this morning and I couldn't stop staring at her while she did it. She knew exactly what she was doing.

Dad

Give me a rating. One through five. You know what the poos mean.

Boldo

Four. It works better than it has any right to. The flight path is unpredictable enough to keep me interested. Durability seems solid so far. But that smell issue bothers me, and you paid more than you should have for something that's just a glorified rubber disc. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt because I actually retrieved it today without full complaint.
