A 60-year-old retired doctor God in the comments taught me that I can use flashcards literally anywhere

I’ve tried flashcards before but never really clutch. Never really, fully got a taste of how clutch they could be, if that makes sense. But, today I was like “Wow, I’m making flashcards for everything! Even people’s names, even their dogs, even the brand of shirt they’re wearing.” Like if I was in a coffee shop and I saw a shirt I liked, I would take a picture of it and make a flashcard in like 2 minutes, and that would be it. <br><br>My very first flashcard was made a couple of years ago and I just made a bunch recently and I did a bunch of vocabulary flashcards and started doing my interviews with flashcards as well but it wasn’t until like just a couple of weeks ago that I really started making flashcards like this and it was only until today when I realized the, uh, the full extent of its capabilities. I’ve been just, like doing flashcards everywhere, and I was like “Wow, this is insane.” <br><br>Canceling the entire value of a day — maybe not a whole day, maybe not a whole day, but, like, a morning, like I canceled the entire value of an entire morning by not doing flashcards. <br><br>It’s like, okay, this is gonna take me like 3 minutes. I’m in the waiting room. I’m in the coffee shop. I’m in the car. I’m in the park. I’m at someone’s house and I’m waiting for them. I’m just, like, chilling outside. <br><br>And so, I mean, yeah, I guess that’s like the main thing I wanted to say. I want to say that I really did not understand how useful flashcards were until now, and that’s what I wanted to say. And I had an idea about flashcards that I wanted to share but I forgot, so yeah, that’s it. That’s the thing.
