Little Younis went into his the playground with his brand new go go pets hamster that his parents bought for him.

He had wanted it for years; perhaps he was a bit old to carry it around at this stage, but he knew that no one would treat it like he would.

A few years earlier he was supposed to get one, but he made such a fuss at the store about his role in the toy decision making process, his parents didn’t buy it for him.

Now he was obsessed with it, he wouldn’t let anyone touch it, although the go go pets hamster style bouncy ball that came with it he gave to the excited kid to play with.

Then a distant relative told Little Younis’ parents that they saw him kicking the fake hamster around in the dirt.

Little Younis had heard his uncle telling his parents and before his parents had even talked to him about it Little Younis was so angry he ran away from home, not for long, but long enough to worry his parents.

He came back with tear stained cheeks and found out that no one had taken his crazy uncles word for it, and he then started playing with the fake pet hamster again.

Not for long though, one day when out on the play ground another kid, one much smaller than Little Younis kicked dirt on the hamster.  The small boy said it was an accident.

But soon more and more kids were kicking dirt on him, all of them were claiming innocence, but Little Younis knew better.

Instead of fighting back, or even getting his parents to help he through the fake pet hamster down and ran from the play ground in an over the top dramatic way.

This time his parents can’t even be bothered with him.

Little Younis is now all alone, under a tree, crying his little heart out as the other boys now fight over his beloved fake pet hamster.

Perhaps he will be able to get his fake pet hamster back, but he might have to fight for it and stop being a pissy little bitch all the time.

    I vote they just take the damn hamster away, but make him watch closely while the other kids have their turn playing with it.

    When they go to the big toy throwing competition in Australia, they will be in such disarray over the hamster that all will go wrong …

    Then he might appreciate what he had to begin with.

    And shut the hell up.

    bang on target jrod – although to be fair i wish he had never thrown away the hamster, cuz now they might as well roast it and have a pitiful little meal of it

    The problem is that before Little Younis came along all the other kids were getting lollies and fizzy drinks from the school janitor. The janitor was taking bets on whether the fake hamster would run right or left. It turns out if he gave the right kid some lollies the kid would make sure the hamster went the way they wanted it to, and even kick up some dirt so you couldn’t really see what he was doing. Then Little Younis came along and decided the fake hamster should just run whichever way it happens to fall. Little Younis just loved that little hamster. But all the other kids wanted their lollies and fizzy drink back.

    I dont think Younis really wanted the fake hamster. Its just in his part of the world its assumed that every little boy wants the pet hamster.
    And when he got it, he just didn’t know what to do with it….Then came the godawful prissiness

    I have to disagree with you on this, its not ‘Little Younis’ who is at fault here. Its the ‘other kids’ (aka Afridi, Malik and Akmal.K) who have undermined his authority
