The joke here bring that cold sounds similar to code?

Very few cartoons are broadcast live, it’s a terrible strain on the animator’s wrists.

My dad has this long running bit, that if I needed his help on something, he needed to go to the shop to get a “round tuit”. I remember asking what store he had to go to, and how much it cost, and being annoyed at how he hadn’t gotten a round tuit yet.

He must have thought I was really committed to the bit.
