There was a children's TV show called Bernard's Watch showing when I was a child. He had a watch that stopped time. And I was so damn envious.
I spent my childhood daydreaming what I'd do with that watch, and came up with so many situations.
In the show, though, things would happen like he'd be late to a birthday party so he'd pause time, go to the shops, pick up a present, and just appear at the party, it was crazy! But of course, it being a children's show he paid for his present because he's a "good boy". I always thought he was an idiot for doing that, even at the age of 7.
