"Baby, I used to be part of every bash. If ever a clyde needed some sense, then I would be the one to talk to. Back then, people didn't ask for much. All of their questions could be solved in a simple "yes, "no", or "reply hazy", if I wasn't feeling so in orbit that day. Really, people were able to take advice like it is, and I was just the cat who knew how to dish it out. I was just funky like that, y'dig?
But now, things have just become so dark, and everything's flipped! You just can't solve problems with a "Signs point to yes" anymore. It's just everyone's bag to know "why" or "when" too. Not cool... Where does that leave me? The guy who used to dig it all? It leaves me as a crumb... a square! And it's a real drag." - (The Magic 8-Ball, 2011).

The Magic 8-Ball. A classic toy of the 50's. Can you imagine what it's like to be a vintage toy? People look at you, they laugh at that would-be fun, then toss you in that old junk drawer, along with the faded markers and used staples...
They must feel pretty dark and lonely. And the poor 8-Ball, the toy that knows and sees all, sees only the dust piling up on its window to the unknown.

I can imagine that they're the type of character that doesn't need to know much about you, and can solve all your problems in less than four words. You know that type of person, right? Perhaps way back when, those four words could really do the trick. But in the modern age, those answers aren't enough anymore, and so you're proven to be no help at all. Suddenly, you feel empty..., like you're drained of that good ol' dark-blue dyed fluid that swishes and swashes when you're shaken up.
If there's one thing Magic 8-Ball knows, it's contrast. Contrast is the presence of conflicting elements. And the Magic 8-Ball is made up of contrasts: It can only say yes or no, and it's always presented to be black and white (otherwise it's another billiard ball, like a one ball, if it's yellow, right?)
