I saw an article in Readers Digest. That’s how I found out.

There used to be a Nintendo magazine that came out once a month, I had to ride to school with this nerd who would bring that stupid magazine and read it on the way to school and tell us to stop making noise, which only made us be even louder.

Anyway, I remember that frick face telling us that it wasn't blowing in the cartilage that works, it was blowing into the Nintendo. Something about the particles getting stuck on something in there. Every friday he used to get a free pizza hut pizza for reading enough books in a week and his grandma would take him to rent a nintendo game.
