If it's wakeup alarm, it takes about 5-10 minutes for my higher cognitive functions to get back online. If someone tells me something during this time, I most likely wil not remember it at all. And it doesn't matter if I have slept 20 minutes or 10 hours, I'll still be as groggy.
If there's a loud sound in the middle of the night, it's almost instantaneous.
Doesn't even have to be rust, wallpaper glue turns that colour when it gets wet. My grandma's farmhouse still has a few small patches like these in some rooms. The old tile roof had tiny leaks in the 60's, they fixed the roof but never had time to start tearing the room ceilings open while running the farm.
We had the patchy room ceilings checked for microbial damage and moisture ~20 years ago by a pro and they were all clean.
My right foot is almost one size wider than my left foot. Finding a good pair of shoes is hard.
And I can't remember what kind of clothes people are wearing. Colours, sometimes, but it's like my visual cortex dedicates zero processing power for clothes.
Now this is a good list.
I've had my Amazfit Bip (the original) for 6 or 7 years and the only complaint I have is the shitty original non-breathing silicon strap. After I replaced it with nylon strap, it was pretty much perfect.
The battery still lasts over three weeks. The display glass only has a few tiny scratches on it, despite that I've worn the watch basically 24/7 all these years.
It has all the basic functionalities I need built in and the not-so-important-but-nice ones I can get via Tasker.
And it was really cheap, I originally bought it just to see what the fuss about smartwatches was all about. But it's been so damn useful and trustworthy that I won't even consider upgrading until it fails someday.
Many of my friends really love Coldplay, so I've heard several of their albums played at parties. Many times. But I cannot remember a single song from Coldplay and most likely wouldn't recognize them if one was playing on the radio.
And I have a decent ear for music, I can play a few instruments and can even find the right chords for a song after hearing it once or twice. But not Coldplay. There is nothing wrong with their music, but it doesn't make me feel anything. It's just so generic to my taste, I guess.
My eyes are very sensitive to light, so I've been using "Men in Black" - style wraparound sunglasses since the late 90's.
I am a dad, but pretty much as far from conservative one can be. Where I live conservative dads do not tend to use these at all.
My old Xperia Z5 Compact was the only phone I've ever owned that had decent speakers. You could actually listen music with them without getting pissed off. It was small and had amazing audio capabilities and great camera, easily the best phone I've ever owned.
But listening music / watching videos in public with your phone speakers on is an abomination. It should be made illegal everywhere.
Yes. I was almost three years old. I don't remember much, but I do remember that I started to sing during the wedding ceremony when my parents knelt at the altar. Of course no one else sung.
I also remember that the priest scared the shit out of me and that my godfather "fell asleep" in the toilet and had to be carried to a car. I learned years later that he had severe social anxiety which he treated with liquor.
I did this with my friends when we went to Thailand. We were enjoying the delicious taste on a beach, two Australian guys were wanted to try it. They both spat it out instantly and the other one got so mad we thought he's actually going to attack us.
After he calmed down a bit he demanded to see us drink it to be sure we hadn't tricked him to drink poison. So we downed the entire 1 litre bottle to appease him. It was the start of a great day that lasted for few days.
I tried American chocolate once. It tasted like vomit aftertaste.
Never again.
Back in the day my not-so-tech-savvy colleague bought a Windows 8.1 laptop that had a touchscreen. After two days she brought it to me and asked me if I could "rip this hellspawn out of this computer".
Before wiping it we checked if there was anything to backup and the ~30 minutes I spent using Win 8.1 were hideous. It was the only time I ever had to use it, of which I am very grateful.
