There is an app on android (maybe iphone too) and its an alarm clock that starts a phone call with a random stranger.
If you want to wake someone up, you hit "wake someone" they find someone with an alarm soon, their phone rings, they answer, you chat for 60 seconds then it ends.
What would your wakeup message be? (to the person above I guess) |

"Do you really know so much about so many subjects or is it mostly bullshit ?"
When I was younger I used to get beaten for being stupid. It turns out I was dyslexic. I never got any help for it.
I can't follow traditional teaching methods. I would spend my time in class chatting and being a bit bold. But I never ever failed a test in my life.
I got in a habit of sitting down on my own when no one was around and learning stuff at my own pace. When computers came along my ability to self teach increased as I can read from screens better and can keep things in context better.
When I got to university I was able to self teach myself a computer language they don't teach at the Uni to do a project in.
A lot of the time when I have noting to do I read technical research on topics.
For example the other night I read articles on...
Photographs of light as a wave and an atom, and how it was achieved using a laser pointed at a nano-wire of metal suspended by graphene.
I read about prefabricated sinkable panels for building, and straw prefab insulation.
I also read about coffee plant leaves being used to make a new tea that is healthier than green tea.
It's what I do in my free time, it interests me. I hear something I find out about it.
It might seem like I am a bit of a know it all, but that would be because I would shy away from topics that I know nothing about. People still laugh at me today when I try say a new word etc.
Also some people think I say stuff to wind them up, truth is I don't care if they get wound up or not. I think about something and say my opinion. I dont say it to wind them up.
anyway, gonna go make dinner. |

Someone once said something to me before "Jack of all trades, master of none". Although I'll argue I am master in many, it did make me laugh, and I know what you were getting at. lol
thanks all
