I don’t know what Geoguesser is, but now I’m curious.

Is it tricky? English is my first language and it doesn’t seem difficult to me, but I never gave it much thought. So fascinating.

Or a French person.

My dog liked to roll his around and get treats out of it.

It’s slightly academic, but check out Eric Berne’s “Games People Play” about Transactional Analysis theory. There’s a short series on YouTube by a user called TherminTrees (a little cheesy and dated looking) that can give you a quick intro if you’re not sure what it’s all about. Its concepts really helped me.

Yes, usually you have to hand wash silk, lace, satin, things with beads, pearls, etc. in special detergent and hang them to dry. It’s a bit of an annoying task outside of doing regular laundry.

A nurse waited with me until I came around and basically treated me for shock. I had orange juice and some sort of crackers and a blanket until I stopped shaking. They had me get up VERY slowly to make sure I didn’t get dizzy or throw up again. Eventually I was able to get dressed and drive myself home. Spent the rest of the day curled up on the couch with a blanket and hot water bottle sipping tea. It totally sucked.

I vomited in the exam room and passed out. I think they finally realized I wasn’t kidding.

When you said video game you brought to mind a broader context for me. We often associate “a name” (musician, CEO, comedian, etc.) with a brand. But when you truly think of the number of people and entire industry involved in producing said art, it becomes a somewhat different question. Not necessarily easier to answer, and I really like your health bar analogy. I think to some extent it depends on what you personally are getting out of your interaction with the product.

Always a fascinating philosophical question to ponder.

Most foreign language apps teach in bite sized pieces. I use Mango, but there are a bunch.

My library (Denver) also offers Mango, an online / apps language learning program.
