Free Rice
The inexorable festive season approaches fast, like a 40 foot articulated lorry covered with fairy lights and the brakes cut. Xmas is the time to be jolly. Which is basically a euphemism for getting drunk, eating too much, getting presents, and generally feeling terribly smug about everything.
Sounds horrible?
It is.
Sounds horrible?
It is.
And here’s the antidote.
I came across this while stalking Neil Gaimen on his blog, as you do, or as I do at least. This is a great site to test your eloquence, your verbosity, or in other words your wordiness. And while doing it you’re giving rice to those needy people in famine ravaged countries, so you’re salving your turkey stuffed conscience at the same time. Bonus.
So this festive season don’t feel disgusted at yourself, learn new words, give to charity, become a better person all round.
Free Rice 5/5 Badgers recommend it.
Ps. I managed 46, what’s your best score?
