What about communicating online? Even just via text? I feel like my English has improved tremendously after just chatting with people online on various forums and message boards.
I guess that helps too. You can grab a bunch of words off Reddit and throw them at people in real life to make them doubt their own proficiency in English.
Verbal communication is still the best way to improve spoken language I think.
I kinda agree with you, but I would like to point out that acquiring a native language as a child is not the same thing as trying to learn a language later on in life. A child's ability to learn is much greater. Read: Child language acquisition.
Also, I would like to add that communicating in a language is a key step in learning it. You can consume as much content as you can, but unless you actually practice, there won't be much progress. This is where I always fail. I don't like talking to people.
Becoming a billionaire is simple, just follow these two easy steps:
1) Get a job that pays one million per month.
2) Work for one thousand months.
Alternatively, if currency is not the issue here, you can take about 50 thousand US dollars and exchange that for just slightly more than 1 billion Laotian kip (or any other currency with funny exchange rates).
Yes, I am very excited about international Garfield day. I've marked the date with a neon green highlighter on my calendar and am counting down the days. Can't wait to participate in this great event. I've always wanted to become part of something bigger, more meaningful. I feel like international Garfield day will be my chance to bring the light into my life.
It all started somewhere in the summer of 2021. At this point in time I realised that I gotta do something about the pandemic. Something more than just being a model citizen by spending 8 hours a day on Reddit (which I already was). So I decided to travel back in time. I wasn't sure how I was gonna do that, so I searched up a tutorial online. I got this nice little webpage that told me that to achieve time travel, I must reset my PC clock and then delete system32. Obviously, I am not an idiot, therefore I realised that deleting system32 was put there for some trollin and will only fuck up my machine, so I skipped that part.
I had everything ready to go back to 2019 when I remembered that I'd need a way to come back to the present. Obviously you can't forward your PC clock to go forward in time. That's plain stupid. After some more searching, I found an article that talked about forward time travel. Apparently I needed a creature that is capable of curving time. The article also had a list of such creatures and one of them happened to be a duck. This was great because I had a duck shop right across the street.
The duck shop keeper didn't want to accept my fake bitcoin coins as payment so I had to go full gangster mode and steal the duck. Once I had the duck ready, I quickly reset my PC clock to summer 2019 and stepped out of the house. The cool 2019 summer wind was gently blowing over me as I was walking down the street thinking what should I do next. I figured that the first person I must inform about the pandemic should be the duck shop keeper. I strolled into his shop and told him about the unfortunate happenings that are gonna happen in a year. I don't think he listened to me as he kept on eyeing my duck. At the end of my speech he asked me "why did you steal my duck?". I told him that I didn't steal it yet because we were in 2019 and the theft act was gonna occur in two years from now. He told me that he just watched the cameras and saw me grabbing the duck from his cages. At this point I remembered that I did something like that back in 2019. I told the duck shop keeper that that is not the most important thing he should be focusing right now because getting a duck stolen in 2019 is nothing compared to having the whole shop closed down in 2020. The dude just stared at me like "so this is the second time you're doing this?". At this point I noticed that the dude's calendar had "2021" written on it. This was solid evidence. The duck shop keeper was an insane person who thought that they were living in the future.
I was getting bored so I decided to quit. I let the duck go and followed it just as was described in the article. If you take a duck from the future into the past, it would always find a way back. As soon as I heard an ambulance rushing past me, I knew I was back in my time. Then, suddenly, I felt the presence of the duck shop keeper. He was walking behind me the whole time! I literally just took this man from the past back into the future.
Not only did I completely fail my mission, but I also left a duck shop unattended for two years.

No.
Male.
There are no normies.
I joined this place two months ago.
I watched this and thought the video was kinda nice.
That's awesome. I wish you could lose it and then get it back again.
My condolences.

Thx.
I will use what I want when I want how I want.
I watch ads.

K.
So many people quiting at the start of 2024. Quite a few big youtubers decided to stop making content.
Btw can I use this post's comment section to do a feature request?
I want to see more AI girlfriends on this platform.
Wait, anon, cancel the absent-app-frustration. Tonight, we are celebrating! It is the NATIONAL NOTHING DAY!!!

Yes, finally. I've been waiting for this all year. A holiday I can actually celebrate.
Sure.
