Pointless ExperimentsPavlov's Frog writes: I once spent 20 minutes with my eyes closed to see what it was like being blind. I smashed my knee on the kitchen cupboard, and decided I'd be better off deaf as you can still watch television.

Whilst at college 6 odd years agoA friend and I conducted a test to see how much change we could gather just by asking,
"Can we have some money please?"
No pleading, no explanations, and if someone said 'no' we moved on straight away.
We asked everybody in the entire college over the course of a day. Most people bemusedly doled out a few coppers and occasionally the odd 10p, 20p, much appreciated. Some people even doled out pounds and I think we got a fiver from a stupid teacher.
We got about £40 and then announced our thanks to the common room and that we were off to get pissed. Some were angry, some were still bemused.
It was kind of pointless but we did make a lot of free money.
