I enjoy scouring ebay for antique electronics, medical equipment, cameras and anything I think may be worth something someday, but probably won't.Background: I told my mum I “donated my body to science” - she can be very literal sometimes.
Me: A friend is working on a study on how to improve the cochlear implant so recipients can hear pitch and tone better
Mum: What happens if your cochlear isn’t working properly when you kick the bucket?
Me: It’s an electronic device mum, not a dead person’s inner ear.
Mum: Well, how can they tell if the electronic device is working if you’re dead?
Me: They generally don’t give the device to corpses, mum
Mum: Well, what do they want your body for?
