I'm currently ill and will more than likely be house bound for the rest of the weekend. Therefore I'm looking for meaning exercises in futility to keep me amused over the next few days. Here's a list I've devised, but I'm craving additions:
1) On facebook, go to the profile of a friend you never talk to. Go to their photo albums and pick one of the oldest (but not the oldest) and like a photo. The photo should preferably be one of something pretty nondescript like their garden or a dog or something. Leave a comment saying something like "It's good to see things haven't changed." Do not elaborate. Ignore them should they message you asking about your odd comment.
2) Write to a long dead author, preferably well known and preferably form your country. Post the letter. If the post office returns it to sender, repeat the process with the name and address written more clearly. This could go on for some time.
3) Create random equations and email them to prominent mathematicians (I can give you email addresses if you so choose).
4) Create a blank paint file and type 4 or 5 of your friends' names on it. Upload it to facebook and tag each name with the corresponding friend. Remove the inevitable confused comments.
5) Feign being obsessive compulsive.
6) Wear a selection of medals for a day. When questioned, claim to have won the noble peace prize. Be sincere.
7) Start a rumour about one of your friends having worms. Come on, we all have a friend for which it's plausible.
8) Fill the shampoo bottle with conditioner. Do not alter the conditioner bottle.
9) When conversing with a family member, stare directly at their forehead for the duration of the talk. From experience this is highly unsettling.
10) Nudge all of the paintings/portraits in the house slightly to the left. Record how long it takes for anyone to notice.
