9. I talk elaborate nonsense and I usually get sent to a human being.

I make up a complex, unrecognizable running string of sounds and add in a few grunts and growls. I just keep responding with my nonsense language until I get tired or get a human.

It's fun for me, and it entertains the dog. Occasionally, she joins in.

But then I have experience working directly with the early development of speech synthesis devices and program development.

For one of my first experiments I programed an early Apple desktop to make nonsense sounds to use for error recognition.

I'm also a published researcher on the topic. One of my papers on the subject in which I examined certain speech parameters and their contributions to meaning and context received national recognition.
