I'm thinking that if I were really excited about ways to look even more slackeriffic up on stage than one already does standing up there poking at an iPhone, waving a wristwatch around would definitely shred and rule!

Your mileage may vary, obviously.

Hmmm. My partner has chided me for a perceived lack of charity, and wisely points out that it should now be possible for audience members to force a conclusion of a boring Max performance merely by getting bored and looking at their watches. This is a promising scenario!
