The weird thing is that I too can speak backwards fluently AND I can juggle lit torches while riding a unicycle. I have only done it once though, and I don't recommend it, because while moving on a unicycle, the inherent wind associated with the forward motion causes the flames to blow into your face.
- DGAP 11y agoThis may be the most pretentious HN comment I've seen to date.
- jacquesm 11y agoUnless it is true. The previous time someone made a 'very pretentious comment' it ended in a quite surprising way: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35079 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35079
- geekamongus 11y agoSadly, it is very true.
- mkhalil 11y agoThat is pretty darn cool. I don't see it as coming off as pretentious at all fyi.
- cbeach 11y agoI really hope this is tongue-in-cheek humour..?
- geekamongus 11y agoNope...I'm a geek and ex-juggler/magician.
- schoen 11y agoCan you speak backwards while juggling lit torches on a unicycle? I remember a talent show where someone first juggled three balls while reciting 100 digits of pi, and then juggled 100 balls while reciting three digits of pi. (The second demonstration, by design, didn't go quite as well as the first...!)
