Regret: Two s'mores at 2:30 am.

I think those bristles on the edges of escalators are for cleaning shoes.

 

Same here i always clean the bottem of my shoes with them whenever i go to the mall.

"Deflector brush: A long continuous brush made of stiff bristles running up the sides of the escalator just above the step level. This helps deflect garments, shoes, and other items away from the gap between the moving steps and the skirt board."

If it wasn't for the brush sagging pants would get caught in the gap and be pulled down to an even less acceptable level.

Man, [bleep] the guy that figured that out. Our explanation was better.

I try to do weird things with my mind just before I fall asleep. Like FORCE myself to have an out-of-body-experience kind of thing. Or completely block out one sound (usually my fan) just to see what it's like. Or just close my eyes and watch the colors and shapes float, disappear, re-appear. Very relaxing.

When I try to do things like this, just before I fall asleep, a voice in my head screams and jolts me awake. It's [bleep]ing annoying.

Whenever I'm taking a test, I have to look over at the paper of the person next to me to confirm they have the same answer as me. If they do, I'm happy, because if I'm wrong I'm not alone. If they don't, I feel scared that I'm a fool and missing something, so I recheck the whole problem.

 

I'm so [bleep]ing insecure.

 

Isn't that considered cheating?

I kind of do that. Whenever I finally try and fall asleep, I FORCE out every thought. Like if I start thinking something, I just yell at myself with my mind to stop thinking, so that my mind is just completely blank. It's very effective. :thumbup:

Not really. I always get the answer myself, but I just always need confirmation.

 

And wow I made it sound like I always do that, I've done it like twice.

So.... what if you see that their answer differs from yours? Do you go and change your answer to match theirs...?

 

If not, and you leave it as it is (with your answers being different) what's the point of even checking in the first place?

I enjoy the taste of the uncooked mushroom soup from a a can of "Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup". Like, no milk/water added, exactly how it is in the can. I don't eat a lot of it, though, I just have maybe a spoonful, because I enjoy the cooked version more, but I'm always hungry while cooking it.

 

I also eat about 2 cans a day of the stuff.

 

Oh, and at the above post(s), I find that "picturing" blackness and silence works quite well for blocking out my thoughts.

I have this recurring dream of I'm driving and this cat falls on the windshield in the middle of a thunderstorm, and the car does a flip, and as soon as the top touches the ground I am literally THROWN awake. Then I look at the clock and only 5 mins have passed since I last checked. Like everytime. Kind of eerie.

I checked my dream book, I think that means you're gay. Was there lightning?

 

Confession: I don't have dreams. And also I don't often remember my dreams.

It's a sign. Watch out for flying cats.

o sht

 

And to your confession, how much do you sleep? I'm pretty sure if you don't sleep like 6 hours or more, then you won't have any dreams? I only studied dreaming for a week last year, so I think to say I'm informed is an exaggeration.

Yea. I kinda wish you woulda posted that an hour earlier. Just got [bleep]ing owned, man.

I've heard the same thing. My problem is I sleep during the day, so it's normally interrupted multiple times by my family.

 

The first sentence was more of a pun on my lack of motivation. But yes, during the school year when I get minimal sleep it seems I don't get to that dream state.

 

Anyone else keep a dream journal? I started about a week ago (I think because of something I read on TIF) and I've written down a couple wierd things. Nothing too wierd yet though.

All this talk of dreaming is making my want to find the xkcd comic about typing while asleep... I want to try that some day. :thumbup:

I had a dream last night that I was in Shoprite and a fat girl pinned me down trying to cut my sleeves with small scissors and she kept trying to trick me into looking away -.- If dreams are suppose to show hopes/fears/experiences...what was that suppose to be? I thought you're not suppose to remember stupid dreams.

Beware the fat woman with scissors.

Aggressive fat women generally tend to appear whenever an individual makes a fake personality in an anonymous environment to mask their insecurities.

 

*looks suspiciously at fakeitormakeit* That wouldn't happen to be what you have, would it? :ph34r:

You people and your dream analyzing. Pssh. My dreams are always all over the place and I never see a reoccurring theme in them. Although that in itself might mean something.

You kids and your dreaming. Last time I had a dream I had it while I was fighting the Vietcong in 'Nam.

Last time I had a dream I could remember, I was an assassin (Badass Hitman style, not wussy Altair style), and instead of killing him, I just played Rock Band.

I had my first lucid, last night, or maybe the night before. I got too excited when I realised I was dreaming, and then woke up. :unsure:

Confession: Sometimes when a game doesn't work, I rent it from Blockbuster, then return the broken copy.

Don't they have those little stickers on the disc so you can't do that?

Who cares, let Blockbuster loose money. Bloody bastards.
