Mind in Neutral

I just brought Snake's watch to the repair place because it had stopped. The man examined it carefully and then said, "The stem that you use for setting the watch is pulled out. If you push it in, the watch will go again".

He didn't laugh at me.

Luckily I had to buy a battery for Br'er Rabbit's watch, otherwise I would have had to pay the man just to forget the whole incident.
