The room gave way to an urban environment and you stood up. You were in an area, which as far as you knew was an ordinary street in the middle of a city. Across the street a large number of pedestrians were crossing the street and moving towards you.
"You see, Tom, this virtual reality is the most sophisticated simulator ever devised!"
You turned around to your left and saw Sarah who beamed at you. She started walking and you followed her as she continued to speak.
"All the people in this world have their personalities derived from the various mind uploads of technicians that worked on the simulation, making for very authentic human personalities."
As she spoke you bumped into various people in the crowd, as they seemed to not even notice your existence. You noticed, however, that they seemed to avoid bumping into Sarah.
"The environments, as you can see, are also very much authentic. The city we are in is..." she trailed off.
You looked around and spotted a beautiful woman wearing a striking red dress that winked at you as she passed by.
"Were you even paying attention to what I said Tom? Or were you looking at the woman in the red dress?" She asked playfully.
You quickly stammered "I was just..."

Completely soaked and humiliated you pulled yourself out of the fountain and pointed accusingly at her giant face.
"How did you get that big, Sarah?" Her reply first consisted of more laughter.
"Its a simulation, Tom. I can make myself as big as I want" she explained.
"Oh, and what's next? You can grow to the size of a skyscraper or maybe even the whole planet?" continuing your sarcastic rant you asked "And why don't I get any of these powers?"
She smiled with a Cheshire Cat grin "Well Tom, I..."
