hold on lemme put on my ~serious typing mode~ for this



Hello there, fellow residents of the tower!  ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ My name is Sayaka Miki, and I'm here to teach you how to use a computer.

If you can see this, congratulations! You've already mastered the steps of reading and looking at a screen, and of  navigating your way TO this handy guide.

First, let's cover the common mistakes.

1 - No, there aren't people inside the strange little box! I know, I know.

2 - Yes, it really does relish your cries of frustration when you fail at using it. That's a computer's secondary power source.

3 - Do you see a key that says "Shift?" There are two of them, and (via holding one down while pressing another key) they let you Use Proper Capitals and access some other c**| $ymb@|$.

4 - There's a really big blank key. That's what you do to keep yourwordsfromlookinglikethis. Hold           it          down         to        get       more      space!

5 - That weird red squiggle that pops up sometimes? That means you've spelled something wrong.

And here's a special rule from a guest speaker:

"Don't forget the magic of the goddamn punctuation keys.

That dot on the keyboard? That's how you end a sentence. That question mark on the keyboard? That's how you ask a question. You know, like a normal person."

That's all I can think of for now - but I'll be editing this! After all, it's for everyone's benefit~.

Media? Like stories and such, correct?

It doesn't make much intuitive sense. I suppose it would be amusing to see, but in my experience people are more inclined to believe an unknown factor has an intelligence than not. Something that can be reasoned with. Perhaps it is the desire for control, or empathy; a fellow being is more desirable than an impersonal, implacable force.

oh my god your sayaka is just delightful <3

[Dang really. Surrounded by fools, as always...]

It's not difficult to understand. If you saw a screen with "hello, how are you?" written on it, you would first assume it's from a person, right? Not as a false response?

She's very genuine =3

It could depend on what they saw, but if there was an image of a person talking to you, then the screen being an interface would at least be an option. Like, one might think "is this a real person, or just an image?". I don't think many would think "there is a smaller person inside the screen".

Kuja using a smily is cracking me the fuck up (he probably learned it from sayaka)

If someone actually does that, they deserve to be mocked. ^_^

The miracles of copy/paste XD

Might be more expedient than a tedious explanation, too.
