It’s an online game that helps you learn definitions, well actually synonyms.  I used to play this every morning as a wake up.

The site pitches you a word, and you choose the best synonym out of four choices. It’s simple and neat.

For every answer you get right, the site says ten grains of rice will be donated. I just checked outline and there is roughly some 29,000 grains in a pound. Sounds a lot nicer when you’re doing it – but shit this is on the internet. I just racked up 600 grains in about ten minutes.

Just some brain food for you.
