Yotsuba
Life’s a bitch. Especially in Shinji’s case. Get in the
robotexistential world-ending crisis, Shinji!I was at this gathering a while back and a kid I had never meet before came up to me and asked if I had any games on my phone. Are people in the habit of handing their cell phones to strange children? I said, ‘I’m sorry, I don’t speak English’ and they seemed to accept that.
Not exactly - it’s way more simple than that:
Adults in this kid’s life (parents) hand them a phone as a toy/treat/distraction (usually the last one). Or maybe they have something similar at home for themselves. So, a bored kid sees adult using a phone, so kid asks adult for phone.
I used to do this way before cellphones. When at a house where there was a personal computer sitting around, I was usually very disappointed at being told “no” after asking to play games on it. But I always asked. To a little five-year-old-warp-core, that’s just what those were for.
Edit: ubiquitous portable computing (modern phones) would have probably rendered me inconsolable after a while.
Not only was I not using a cell phone, I didn’t even have one on me at the time. Kid was just fishing.
I had this only happen once in a doctor’s waiting room. “Sorry, it’s a work phone. Can’t risk it.” Then they went to ask someone else.
I have some rude thoughts about parents that allow their kids to do this to strangers.
I now carry toy cars in my bag and give them out to kids who seem restless in grocery stores, waiting rooms, etc. It’s fun. (:
Get in the slice of life anime, Shinji
No but I have 3DS
Is that 4chan girl?
Her name is Yotsuba, and she doesn’t deserve this slanderous association
Yes
NO!
I googled it. You are sadly incorrect
Yotsuba Koiwai
That’s not ‘4chan girl’ that’s yotsuba, the slice of life kid.
I don’t know that anime but I think that this interaction would be possible.
