Pork roast, live music and beer. You might’ve won the thread…

Hope you have a great day! Wishing you two all the best!

I was talking to a friend about this who never heard of synesthesia, and though I was messing with him. I challenged him to write 50 random words on a piece of paper to which I would add colors. He took the paper, and a month or so later he read each word, to which I was able to flawlessly respond with the corresponding color. He did my chores for that week (we were roommates at that time).

That’s basically the only time it somewhat benifitted me. The rest of the time it’s people asking what color their names are whenever the topic comes up :)

I have color-grapheme synesthesia. I can use this super power to… Uhmm… It won me a bet once? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grapheme–color_synesthesia

It’s good to know that in France, there is a required number of “working years” next to the retirement age. So for many people 64 is already not an option as they went to university for example. I often hear people argue that the French shouldn’t complain because in country X it’s age Y, but for a lot of French it’s already Y or >Y (I don’t know the exact details though as I’m not French, but have family there. So feel free to add or correct me)
