Some things to think about.

So, I guess you've all noticed the lack of originality and thought provoking topics lately at TA.. because I know I have.
Not that there is anything wrong with brainless banter, because there really isn't, and I myself have done a lot of it.
Most of you guys seem really smart (I won't name names, because then I'd leave some of the lesser intelligent people out from thinking they're geniuses :D) Ok ok.. I'm not bashing stupid people.. at least not in this thread.. well..not yet, anyhow. :D So my point is, I'd like to have a nice slew of intelligent conversations/threads. I'm sure most of you would agree.
So I thought I'd get my big ol' mixing spoon and stir up the status quo, if you catch the drift.
I've been getting stoned a lot lately (well.. not lately, I always get stoned..) and hence, been doing a lot of thinking; you know when you just shut up and listen to that crazy whirl of inner monologue?
Well last night, we were really blazed, and we were watching a movie. My friend had a big glass of Dr. Pepper sitting on the ground, and as I got up to walk out of the room, I had a vision of it being knocked over. Not necessarily me knocking it over, but just a flash photo. Not 5 seconds later, as soon as I had left the room, his mom came in and kicked it over. I was like, "Whoa! That's crazy.." and then I was thinking about what had happened earlier in the day. Let me run off on a small tangent here.. I work at a place called Laser Quest, perhaps some of you are familiar with it. It's basically a big three level maze, lit with black lights. Anyways, there was one hallway that I couldn't get through, because it was clogged like John Goodman's arteries with small children. So I figured that I should just leap over a short wall and skip ahead of them. So I did. But for some reason I stopped in mid-jump and stopped/landed on top of the wall. Good thing, too, because over that wall was a drop of 20 feet onto concrete. I have no idea what made me stop, but goddamn I'm thankful for it.. rather, my legs and internal organs are. :D
So , being really stoned at the time, the conclusion I drew was that I was perhaps psychic. :rolleyes:
Now I'm not so sure, of course, but what do you guys think? Do you believe in psychic actvitity?
p.s. a note to all would-be flamers: I am not proclaiming to be psychic, I am questioning the existence of it, and what people's opinions are on it. Thank you. |

but seriously, I notice that similar to what u have described happens to me often. PPL tell me that since I am a Cancer that I have like a sixth sense towards things that are to occur. I sort of believe in it, but I don't really trust all those horoscopes, cause half of them are just pure bull.
BTW, I don't use pot or drugs, too often! |

Drugs are bad, m'kay? :D
I'm an Aquarius, if that means anything. :toothless
I think I do believe in it, there is too much crazy unexplained that happens far too often to deny this stuff. It's a little harder accepting that I might be one of those crazy guys. :p |

First note: Laser Quest is bad-ass! i went there for the first time saturday and now i'm hooked... (we actually did our DEP Air Force maneuvering practices there.... kinda like a swat team entering a structure and attempting to secure it).... man what a badass place! i am definitely going to get a membership.. didn't even realize they had franchises...
Second note: I think that happens to all of us harley. i don't use drugs (for the record and don't think it has anything to do with it.) I just think its either small coincidences, or maybe it is your "guardian angel" giving you a foresight vision to subconciously prevent you from making a disastrous mistake..... but then again that wouldn't explain the can of soda incident....
I've never experienced something like what you have real-time, however i have had a dream about something, and then see it come real the next day.... kinda like de-ja, only weird b/c it happened in the dream first. :)

hmmmz there is a theory that theres a part of the brain left dormant by evolution that is the psychic part.. some ppl have worked out how to use that psychic power to an extent.. i think that this is very possible.. there is a lot of the human brain that we have no idea what it does.. so its at least not out of the question..
drugs.. maybe induce the startup of this section of the brain?? when i eat a pill.. i just know whats gunna happen. im gunna get ed, and dance my ass off... maybe not psychic... but hey... |

Ok, back to serious answers now...;)
I`ve experienced something alike a few years back. A friend of mine and me were cycling to a lake near my place and we were cycling along a small cycling track and took all the space of the track and I suddenly started thinking "What would I do if someone came the other way on this small track?" and I tought "I`ll break and pull behind my friend". Next corner another cycler came the other direction and I pulled the breakes and pulled behind my friend and we passed the other cacler without any problems. If I hadn`t reacted so quick we would have hit him and someone would have get seriously hurt.
It was something really impressive, call it psychic or simply coincidence but it was truely impressive. |

I agree B.S.E. I get a little tired of some of the threads here too. and in other forums I visit. hearing about the latest new flash cartoon just doesn't satisfy me any more you know what I mean?
this is however, a forum for trance addicts, not for people who are interested in thought provoking debate. there are probably forums out there for this kind of thing as well.
even so, I plan on building my own, at my website..

I've had almost exactly that same thing happen to me. and I do agree a little mary jane does increase the likelihood of it happening, it's like it makes you a bit dumber in some things (ie. math for me), but ups your level of perception of other things a bit (like bad vibes in a room, or even clarirvoyant perceptions)
now, i'm not saying that pot is a wonder drug that will make us all psychic or anything, just that it's a neat phenomenon that a LOT of people have noticed about it.
also two little disclaimers, sometimes people think that things are significant when really they are just coincidences. for example, you may have had 100 hundred thoughts stream through your head, only one of which was the glass getting knocked of the table. but since that actually happened, you remembered it more clearly. your brain can trick you in this way, there have been studies made.
another example, it seems like everytime that you jump in the shower, the damn phone rings. that's because your brain remembers this, because you have to get out of the shower and get the phone and it's annoying. whereas all the times you get in the shower, and the phone doesn't ring, your brain just skips over this non event and doesn't make a big deal of it.
