Or responsible for the apocalypse.
Let me explain.
So I was at an event and having a lengthy conversation with a person I didn’t actually know. She knew me though. By name. And I am often too polite to ask “Who are you?” so I just pretend my way through the conversation.
Afterwards my friend came up to me and said, “Who was that?”
“I don’t know,” I replied. “But she seems nice.”
That’s when we came up with a new invention. It’s like Shazam, an app you launch on your phone that listens to music and then tells you who it’s by, but for faces. You would discreetly launch it and point it at somebody and it would tell you who that person is.
We’re going to call it Whozami.
PS -The apocalypse because dozens of dystopian novels start with this type of software.
PPS – The only drawback is I can’t figure out how to discreetly point it at someone’s face. “Are you taking a picture of me?” “No! Shut up. I mean, just keep talking. Nothing weird happening here. You were talking about Bob from the general store? Can you keep your face still?”
PPPS – This sorta thing might already exist and they’re just not letting us pleebs use it.
PPPPS – The government is ruining my social life.

Oh I agree. It’s really cool. I am face to face with many people everyday, and I remember faces. But your name. Good luck with it. This device would be my forever bff.

Right?! I can see a face, I know I know you, but other than that I got diddly-squat. I’ve become an expert at faking it. “Hey! It’s been a long time! What’s new?!”
The trick is to beat them to the opening, and then control the conversation.

Oh my gosh, why hasn’t this been invented yet? I just can’t with people’s names. I’m great with faces though.

Right?!?!?! I’m constantly seeing people’s faces and knowing I know them, but no idea how. It’s the bane of my existence.

My favorite way to combat that is to not be near anyone.
