In one episode of Adventure Time, pals Finn and Jake try to pass the day by not talking. I wonder what's the meaning of this but hey, I wanna do this one day so I can give my family a peace of their mind without my disturbing voices. So here are the top five ways to pass a day without talking.
Number 1: The Sign Language - Sign language is a common way of communication for deaf people but if you're not and if you're...well, talking. It might be best to learn sign language before initiating a day without talking. Mastering sign language by yourself can be a lot more tricky but with practice makes perfect. Be careful though, most of your friends and family don't know what you're doing.
Number 2: Stack lots of paper! - Like Finn and Jake, best to stack papers with words and when the time comes, you'll know when you're ready because sometimes, they might want to reply you with something. If unprepared, someone's going to be disappointed.
Number 3: The whiteboard and marker trick - If papers are wasteful and if you want to save some papers, best to have a whiteboard that you can carry and a marker. Just be sure that the marker is not permanent or else you can't remove it and you have to wait for several days to remove it. According to Brainiac, a permanent marker is permanent for about 6 days or so and using one of these is not recommended.
Number 4: Use the speech function from your computer! - For Windows users, try using the Narrator function or if you're an iPhone user, use the smartphone's VoiceOver. Your friends and family can't tell if the computer talks about...well, whatever.
Number 5: The Stephen Hawking approach! - If you truly idolize Stephen Hawking, you want to be like him too.
These are the top five ways to pass a day without talking. Just be careful though...
If your friends and family, especially a computer one, know that you're not talking, they'll know it's not you or for worse, some bikini babes will attack you until you talk.
