| Reiko: | Kai! do you know, that there are other children in countries with no food. They would love to have a breakfast like yours, but here you sit, Selfish Boy. So Selfish, you could be eating this food, but you just let it sit here. I wish I could send it to a developing country! |
| Kai: | Well, why don't you send it? |
| Me: | WOW! |
| Them: | what?!? |

And I love the "developing countries" take you added to it. And YOU Kai, "well, why don't you send it?" Like we have teleporters or something to just beam food to Africa or something. |
| Kai: | I didn't say teleporters! |
