Turning Japanese, Chinese, Southern …..

Confused

Everyday I speak to someone with a different accent even if it’s for a few minutes a start to pick up their accident subconsciously. I feel those on the other side might think that I’m making fun of them but I truly can’t help myself. I guess there is upside to this dilemma if all of sudden I’m suddenly given the role as a Chinese, Southern man I’ll just hang on the phone with my friends down South and East for a bit longer.

Never forget a name again

google glass 2

I don’t know about you but I hate when I forget someone’s name especially my kids (that part was a joke).  There is a solution that would make me actually wear my glasses. If “Google Glass” would have face recognition. Yes I’m sure I’d still pronounce the name wrong but at least it would be closer then Pal or Buddy.  These glasses could provide me with vital information about the person I was looking at like if they had children and job they had. This way I can always be a dummy until I saw them again. This face recognition could also solve many security problems as guards would wear these glasses to identify those who might enter a building, airplane, or other secure locations.  So “Google” get to work and make my life and millions of other “name forgetters” easier.

Party Problems

bored at party

I love a good party but hate figuring out who to speak too.  The bigger the party the harder this problem becomes. There are people you’re supposed to speak to like family and friends but then there are the people who you may never speak to again. How do you maneuver away from the “People you’re supposed to speak (PYSP) to” to the ones you really want (RW) to without hurting anyone’s feelings. Here are a few techniques that might be helpfu

(1) Bathroom break- Tell your friends you have to go to the bathroom just wash your hands and then sneak back to the people you want to speak to.

(2) Drink Break- Tell them you’re going to get a drink and be right problem then sneak over to the (RW’s). Problem is they have to be in the way to the drink location and they might want to join you.

(3) Tell the Truth- It could hurt your (PYSP) feelings but with a little tact it just work. For example don’t go out and say “I’d love to speak to you but you’re really boring today”.
