Okay, I'm a relatively young soul, born in South New Zealand around 1850. I was an herbalist but "my environment often misunderstood me". I guess this means I was allergic to everything, or I walk into a field and birds would swoop in and attack me. Finally, I'm also a magician.
I was a Siberian farmer, weaver, or tailor born in 1425 who also could have been a spy.
I was male, born somewhere in the territory of modern USA South-West around the year 1775. and my profession was that of a philosopher and thinker.
Did any of the Founding Fathers ever have a trip west before signing the Declararion? I smell a paternity case...
I'd love a job as a thinker! Where do they get advertised?
Making babies - 1980-style. Plus
Flying Firemen in the year 2000Wow. Talk about taking all the fun out of the babymaking process and skipping straight to the squalling and diaper-changing... granted, it skips that pesky childbirth process as well, so maybe they're onto something after all.
I'm guessing you weren't a publisher int he American South West in 500 AD. Unless Random House was founded earlier than I thought.
My sister turned out to be a healer in New Zealand in 450, which is clearly one for the history books: I'm pretty sure that conventional wisdom doesn't have humans arriving in NZ until about 800.
Here's a cool vocab game. For every word you get right sponsors donate 10 grains of rice to be sent to the needy.
But now I can't stop, because it addresses both my desire to be a smartypants and my desire to help others!
I can't stop either. 7 bowls and counting.
Arg, 25 33 49 bowls. The words start to recur after awhile, but not in the same order. (And why rice, not plumpynut?)
ETA: It is very very addictive.
This isn't really absurd or humorous but it is fun and does some good in the world.
Free Rice lets you play a vocab game and donate rice at the same time. It gets harder but you just have to push through.
Plus the bowl fills up with rice as you play.
