Yes I agree, only one of us stays winning

Preach it sister.

There are 140,000,000 geniuses walking the planet according to Mensa. I don't think many will have a good idea.

Are you one of the geniuses?

 

[Witty Banter]

There are zero geniuses in my view. Not until certain basic physics challenges are solved.

You are only an analytical elliptical perimeter away from being the smartest person ever.

Such as?

Constant velocity angular joint. Thompson joint doesn't cut it.

Infinite/smooth ratio gearbox.

The vaguest idea about wtf gravity is, rather than just how it acts.

Even Pi isn't very well understood. People are calculating it to 12 trillion decimal places, but can't explain the first 20.

I'm a terrible overpacker also. I've never been on such a big adventure though to multiple countries etc in one trip. You probably need to be fairly efficient when doing so much travelling? Yeah?

I never understand how some people travel with so little.

The basis of what I take is larger than most people. Cameras, charges, laptop, tablet, gopro. That's all a huge amount.

Trying to be efficient... trying... we'll see how I go when I start to pack.

How does it work when you fly international which has larger luggage allowance and then you need to take domestic flights? Just have to pay for extra luggage? Or can you keep luggage to domestic size?!?

If Stephen Hawking is so smart, why is his wheelchair off the shelf?

 

[Consuela]

I found it was easier to just buy as you go. You can buy cheap clothes from markets and such and then just donate/dump them when you leave for your next destination. That way you don't have to worry about luggage sizes.

Hey, @JordanS, want to have a really boring conversation?

Not really. If you bore me too much, I will fall into a deep sleep.

 

[Columbo]

Not really. If you bore me too much, I will fall into a deep sleep.

But isn't falling asleep now a good thing?

 

[Affable]

I get enough of that in class... So not really.

Llama's don't interest you?

 

[Affable]

Llama's don't interest you?

As much as Inigo does interest you....

 

[Columbo]

You spelt Tina Arena wrong.

I wonder if sitting reepbot in the same room as the TERMINALLY ILL for an afternoon would be considered euthanasia or manslaughter

There are too many people doing degrees that they don't want to do.
