Can you explain what sketchTag does in this code. And where does say come from in this.innerHTML = say;?

lol. Why yes I can! By gaslighting you completely and saying "but it really says this.innerHTML = sketchTag;". In this, we can see that you have found a mistype and I hope that now the update makes more sense :).

The point of sketchTag was simply the idea of another tag providing the advanced functionality. aaaannnnnd then I didn't actually set it to innerHTML (a horribly simplistic method of making this load) :)

Thanks for the note. Updated both doc blocks.

The following code was always there, under every comment that was made, and has never been modified from it's original, posted below.

      let sketchTag = document.createElement("the-parrot-sketch");
      sketchTag.innerHTML = this.getAttribute("say");
      this.appendChild(sketchTag);
