9. I remember when I could only read something like 4 words, “the,” “and,” “a,” and “I.” It did get boring.
10. I was thinking more along the lines of inertia meaning inactivity… I failed physics class. 😛
Bonus: If you think about it, when you answer the phone you actually START the conversation by saying hello. So what you’re actually disputing is the inertia of the conversation by hanging up. My suggestion: next time someone calls you who you don’t want to talk to, ignore what they’re trying to say and instead go into a detailed diatribe on the definition of inertia. Then when they hang up on you, you can call them rude. Everyone wins!!
