Or cut to the chase and cancel the next Taylor Swift concert.

That might cause a disturbance in the space time continuum.

Worth it.

Develop psychohistory for real and predict the next great disaster of human society and how to stave it off.

Love it!!!

But I kinda think we might already be there.

Then, have you thought about professional chess?

Then, have you thought about professional chess?

I can play. But, darn, it's so hard for my ADD brain to stay focused on strategy. I'm such a "what you see is what you get" kind of person.

How about crocheting amigurami?

How about crocheting amigurami?

Well, first I had to look that up.

Second . . . I mean, I was kind of thinking along the lines of something that would increase my market value. At least marginally.

 

[Apisto42]

Does your market value need increasing or your personal/mental/spiritual value need increasing? It’s great when all four line up, but the market value thing is usually the least valuable.

"something that would increase my market value" . . . Enny, please clarify this comment before someone begins to think naughty of you !

Color me curious. How do you, personally, define spiritual value?

As to the market value thing. Once when I was quite young, a family member told me it was a good thing I was decorative as I had little else of marketable value. I suppose I tend to default to that in my value assessment of self.

I might need a little rewiring.

I define it as adding to my overall usefulness!

*ponders is higher level maths and multi-languages leads to an increase of naughty value*

Nope!

I think you must just have a naught mind.

I just threw it in to sound pretentious and wise.

But there’s a point, albeit it’s rather curved. I’m not religious in any sense of the word, but developing your own connection to your world would be my definition of increasing your spiritual awareness.

Isn’t family a grand thing? Learning to overcome your family’s particular brand of psychosis is difficult. Still working on that.

I’m better at plumbing, laying pipe for example, so I’ll stay out of the electrical problems.

Hahahaha! Worked!

I will take that as a genuine answer to a genuine question.

*sigh* Yep.

Does mean we're two trade ships passing in the night.

Only if I get to attempt a high seas boarding action and deliver some cargo…

Ummm, wouldn't that sort of mitigate the whole passing in the night idiom?

Pretty sure.

I suppose I’ll just have to fire a shot across your bow then.

Oh!!!

I'll have to check with @investor2020 to be sure, but I'm pretty sure that comes under the heading of naughty.

It would have been naughty if I’d have said your aft.
