The Casio QL-10 was pretty much a product of its time, since casual smoking everywhere used to be normalized.

It would however also fit in today's world, where for most people, doing their accounts makes them want to burn everything down.

Förorter talas ofta som en ”bubbla”, där invånarna har svårt att ta sig ut på grund av områdets sociala problem.
