Notes

  • The first three failed times you use one, you get the message appended after the item:
    Hmm. Well, keep trying. Maybe next time it'll be something important.
  • Subsequent unsuccessful tries (also after the item):
    Man, you just know there's a pony in here somewhere. Keep digging!
  • When you finally get the communicator (a new paragraph, before the item):
    Ooh, this looks important!

References

  • The failure message involving a pony refers to a joke about an optimistic child who gets a room full of manure for Christmas. He started diving around in it, laughing excitedly: “With all this manure, there’s GOT to be a pony in here somewhere!”
