cosmolinguistI'm sitting at a table on the train, and a family with little kids has joined me. I'm delighted to see that Thumb War ("one two three four I declare a...") is a game basically unchanged from when I learned it 35 years ago on another continent.
When the girl asked her mum about the wireless charging spot on the table, I showed her how it worked by sliding my work phone on to it (she grinned when the screen lit up).
Her little brother then held his toy car over the same spot and we all (him too) laughed at his joke about charging his car.
