Thinkin' about http://twitter.com/shitduosays and how humans learn a lot better when they're having fun...
Maybe Duolingo should put deliberately funny and outrageous things in its lessons? 🤔

@InspectorCaracal Scandalous! Do you think someone working for Duolingo put them there? Or are they photoshoppery?
@cassolotl Oh no they're real, I meant that Duolingo is clearly already putting ridiculous sentences into their lessons.
@InspectorCaracal Oh I see! I totally misunderstood. :) I guess I feel like maybe they could do that but more so. I want to talk about robots taking over the world and providing us all with tax-funded cake, but like, in French.
@InspectorCaracal Like, maybe in addition to food and exercise and dating and whatnot, they could have a sci-fi/fantasy section, a philosophy section, a therapy section... They're very niche sections. XD
@cassolotl oooh yes!! More "The ant is friends with the moose", less "This is a woman. You are a boy. The man is drinking beer."
@cassolotl I am pretty confident those are not accidental phrases
