Things I learned today (Part 1)

It’s no Rock of Dunamase

Now there’s no point in trying to go back in time to change things. You said they’d no concept of time before the wristwatch. You should tic some time off

You haven’t lived until you’ve seen Beaghmore

You need a time out. I’ll tell you when it’s time to come back.

Anyway enough other threads here to argue. This is a place for learning.

Agreed, you were just being a bit sloppy with your language. I hope I’ve tidied things up and helped you in your quest for knowledge

Einstein said that years ago

Time drags when you are young but it seems to fly when you are older.

Sure who do you think told him that

There is no spoon

Well?

That’s to do with new experiences when younger. Keep doing new things to slow it down.

The reason? Our brain encodes new experiences, but not familiar ones, into memory, and our retrospective judgment of time is based on how many new memories we create over a certain period. In other words, the more new memories we build on a weekend getaway, the longer that trip will seem in hindsight.

This phenomenon, which Hammond has dubbed the holiday paradox, seems to present one of the best clues as to why, in retrospect, time seems to pass more quickly the older we get. From childhood to early adulthood, we have many fresh experiences and learn countless new skills. As adults, though, our lives become more routine, and we experience fewer unfamiliar moments. As a result, our early years tend to be relatively overrepresented in our autobiographical memory and, on reflection, seem to have lasted longer. Of course, this means we can also slow time down later in life. We can alter our perceptions by keeping our brain active, continually learning skills and ideas, and exploring new places.

That’s balls I haven’t done anything new for months and it’s a pure drag

Me. Myself and Frank Ryan met him in a brothel in Madrid.

Harry Kane’s first goal for Spurs was against Shamrock Rovers

As my 89 year old grandmother likes to says “the days go slowly but the weeks go quickly”
