Title: Psychological Discussions
Description: Questions you feel like asking on a whim


Anachronist - June 20, 2007 03:37 AM (GMT)
Find the answer to life, the universe, and everything!

((Sorry, Adam, I had to.))

So, I want to ask some questions that just randomly appear in my head. I need to ask them to someone or else they're ferment in my head and add to my insanity. So, one question I thought of was "What would be the worst possible thing to happen to you at this moment?" The worst possible thing that coul happen to me is losing one of my hands, particularly my right. I wouldn't be able to write, play games, play music, use my computer efficently, type; I think I would have myself committed if it happened. Now it's your turn: What would be the worst possible thing to happen to you at this moment? Be truthful, and I'd like some feedback. Please humor me.

Devking - June 20, 2007 04:22 AM (GMT)
The worst possible thing... Not being able to communicate to my friends any more... or death. I really can't choose, but they're both really bad. One would torture me and the other... would just suck. >_< As for this thread, I guess it's workable, 'cause I feel this way most of the time with my comments and questions. xD

Anachronist - June 20, 2007 04:34 AM (GMT)
You feel like you're dying, dead, or like you can't communicate? Youre right, though, that would suck. Oh, and any particular form of death, or just death in general?

Devking - June 20, 2007 04:51 AM (GMT)
Unless all my possessions were burned and all trace of my existence disappeared from the Earth, I think "death" in general would suck for me right now. That goes without saying for every moment of my life. As for the communications thing, I just don't wanna be bored just yet. xD

Anachronist - June 20, 2007 05:20 AM (GMT)
Who does? Boredom is a motivator that causes people to do things like Skydive, deep sea diving, and smoking pot. I'm assuming you haven't done two of those three things at least.

Devking - June 20, 2007 05:24 AM (GMT)
Boredom is a motivator for people to find new things to do, and it's a signal that either you have time to relax, or there's something in your life that can be one, which you only choose not to do. Now, out of those three things, you're right, 'cause I haven't done any of them.

Anachronist - June 20, 2007 05:33 AM (GMT)
But boredom is a negative motivator in that it causes people to make rash decisions just to escape from its clutches. Most of the time, the results of boredom-motivated activities and actions are either dangerous, stupid, or self-destructive. Including being ensnared within the tentacles of boredom.

Devking - June 20, 2007 05:36 AM (GMT)
I guess you're right, but that's only to the weak-minded. To those other people, they'll actually find the true significance of it and exploit it. It is somewhat a negative motivator, but also a positive one, if you can locate it.

Anachronist - June 20, 2007 05:54 AM (GMT)
Right, right. Y'know, maybe this topic should've been named the "Psychological disscussions" topic. Oh, and in a cynic's mind, there are not too many of those "other people"

Devking - June 20, 2007 06:09 AM (GMT)
I know there aren't. After all, I may be a cynic, but I'm also one of the few who see the multitudes of points in a matter of subject. And I think it should be renamed that... Maybe Katanoki can help fix it for us. ((Of course, if I were a mod... xD jk.))

KatanokiChaos - June 20, 2007 05:53 PM (GMT)
I be fixing it after I respond. ^_^

Uh... Yeah, hell, losing my right hand would suck, I kinda agree with Adam. But personally... I dunno, it's hard to explain.

I wouldn't hate it after the fact, but the possibility of losing my mind, losing my knowledge, scares the hell out of me. I'm terrified of becoming a bad person, of conforming, or of accepting what I believe is wrong, and turning into that which I most fear.

And what scares me most is, a little more than a year ago, this never would've occured to me. Even now, this never would have occured to me, if not for the genius of two bands, coming into my life in my most vulnerable moment; Tool and Nine Inch Nails. Tool pried open my eyes; Nine Inch Nails instilled in me the desire to act.

Which, truthfully, is what I should be doing now, not wasting time on the computer! But, I digress.

So, now, I pose the second question (since no one else is probably going to answer, LAZY BUMS!): What, if any, albums, songs, or artists changed your life, or way of thinking?

I've already answered, of course. Heh. But if you missed that: Tool. Or, more specifically, Lateralus. And after that, NIN, both The Downward Spiral and later on, Year Zero. Lateralus opened me to the infinite possibilities of the world, and to higher thinking; The Downward Spiral brought me back down and let me be the fucking emo I needed to be for a little while, and Year Zero (especially along with the ARG) scared the hell out of me and made me want to fight what's going on all around us.

Devking - June 20, 2007 06:04 PM (GMT)
You should talk to my friends... They think so much of their bands too. >.<

Anyways, on the whole right hand bit, I'd actually not care too much about it, 'cause life is much more than just typing and writing and playing games. Just the fact that there'd be a lot of pain annoys me.

And on the matter of losing my knowledge, I guess that is scary. 0_o But my beliefs have been set so that they do conform, so I'm okay with that. Just losing my knowledge scares me... unless it's from amnesia, of course, where everyone knows that I have it so they treat me differently, whilst I can too.

Finally, I don't think that any band has really influenced me to a great extent, because I don't use the media as a basis for my life. Sure, I still like listening to music and sometimes I can relate to the songs, but they don't really change anything.

I guess the most change I've gotten from the music industry probably comes from one of the least-liked bands in the bay area(that's where I live), Linkin Park. Why? I chose not to say right now.

Anachronist - June 20, 2007 07:07 PM (GMT)
I listen to just about everyhting and anything, except rap and yodeling. Music is what I use to escape, but I don't think there's ever been a band to influence me. I mean, I analyze each song, try to find the meaning behind the words, but I don't let it affect me too much. And the whole hand thing; I need my hands. My life is about expressing my self, my thoughts, into tangible means. With out my hand, I lose my words, my music, my art (crappy art), and I wouldn't be able to deal with that. To me, that's almost as bad as losing my mind.

KatanokiChaos - June 20, 2007 09:01 PM (GMT)
I can see where you're coming from.

... So... new question? Anyone? Heh.

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 01:42 AM (GMT)
Here's a new question: What would you do if you were turned into the opposite gender for at least a day? I kinda like how some people squirm at this question.

Devking - June 21, 2007 01:54 AM (GMT)
xD

I'd enjoy it.

***---Devking refuses to give comment on this subject. And no, he's not perverted. And no, he wouldn't do anything bad. He'd just enjoy it.---***

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 01:59 AM (GMT)
Oh, come on! You suck. Pretend like I'm a psychologist (Riiight....) and I just asked you this. Isn't there something more? Cause that response was a cop-out. That, I'm kinda nervous about what Lainey gonna post...DX

Devking - June 21, 2007 02:09 AM (GMT)
Well, fine. I'm actually going to say why I feel this way. >o> As for Katanoki (yes, I call her that even though I know her name), I'll bet she wouldn't care much for it. So why're you nervous about it? And I also noticed that you didn't answer your own question, which I find peculiar.

To the point:
I feel, unlike the average person, that being a female instead of being a male would actually be quite fun. To most everyone I know, losing their balls is like losing their life. To me, I don't much mind, as long as I were turned into the opposite gender due to something more sci-fi than a sex change. Now, if I were actually a normal girl, I'd think things would be more regular for me, because I'm already more like a female than a guy. Furthermore, if I wanted to say more reasons, they would not be describable in words.

And that's the disgusting truth. No, I'm still straight, though.

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 02:30 AM (GMT)
Thank you for indulging me. I appreciate it. As for why I'm nervous about Lainey's answer, she strikes me as being an odd person, as her responses to questions I ask sometimes leave me wishing I hadn't asked them in the first place.
-------------------------------------------
Yeah, and I didn't answer my own question because....well, I'm actually a bit embarassed about it. I asked the question to get other peoples opinions, and because it was the first one in my mind, oddly enough. Um, I would actually feel a lot better if I were able to spend some time as a girl. I wouldn't be so quiet, or moody, or antisocial. I also wouldn't be cynical, but my sarcasm would still be entact ;). I wish there were more people who post on the forums. It's not much of a discussion with only two, maximum three, people.

Devking - June 21, 2007 02:35 AM (GMT)
Okay, I take it back. Why I wanted to be a girl can be described in words. T_T And yea, I agree with the whole forums needs more people thing. Just that none of my friends like role playing even after I kept bothering about it. xD And as for Lainey's reply, "xD". Again, though, borderline creepy similarities.

KatanokiChaos - June 21, 2007 02:42 AM (GMT)
Omfg.

I would do many things that neither of you would want to hear about.

Many, many things.

^.^

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 02:44 AM (GMT)
See?! This is what I meant!

Devking - June 21, 2007 03:32 AM (GMT)
xD

Isn't that natural if she became a guy?
And yes, I'm intrigued. xD (Not really)

Any reasons?

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 03:47 AM (GMT)
Reason for what? Are you talking to Lainey or me? And yeah, it wouldn't completely surprise me if she spontaeneously turned into a boy one day.

Devking - June 21, 2007 03:51 AM (GMT)
Reasons was to her; whilst I think she's more of a guy than we are, so that brings up three things:

1) I wouldn't be surprised if she did.
2) Sorry for calling you un-girly (My God, that's the worst spelling and grammar ever!)
3) Did I just remark that you and I are girly?

Anachronist - June 21, 2007 04:42 AM (GMT)
Yeah, you did. Another weird thing? I agree. Chalk up another one for the borderline creepy similarities.

KatanokiChaos - June 21, 2007 04:50 AM (GMT)
XD Dun worry. I don't really care and, mostly, consider myself under the category 'genderqueer.' Except for medical purposes.

Devking - June 21, 2007 06:22 AM (GMT)
All I can say is: "XDXDXDXDXD"

And all chalked up, senior [input your real name, which I forgot. darn.].

Anachronist - June 22, 2007 01:12 AM (GMT)
M'name is Adam. So, new question? Anyone?

KatanokiChaos - June 22, 2007 04:22 AM (GMT)
Secret 'kiddy' thing that you still do?

Stuffed animals.

And mah green security blankey. XD I've even brought it to school.

Anachronist - June 22, 2007 03:27 PM (GMT)
(-_-)
I still watch Saturday morning cartoons, or any cartoons really. That, and I still like watching Disney movies.

Devking - June 25, 2007 05:27 AM (GMT)
What counts as 'kiddy'?

But I guess the answer for me would be nothing.

My parents threw out my old lucky blanket; my stuffed animals disappeared somewhere; and I never seem to have time to watch cartoons. Unless someone can help me out, I really can't think of anything. >.<

TWIGLET - June 26, 2007 10:58 PM (GMT)
The sacred blankey has been locked into some celtic chest somewhere, not kidding.
Great now the frickin thing is gonna be posessed. Crap.

And I still do legos, thats not that childish considering I build attack robots with them, its sooo fun. Legos that shoot at people when they walk by on their own, and I've got hit too, so I dropped it on the floor.

Other then that, not very childish.

KatanokiChaos - June 27, 2007 02:43 PM (GMT)
LEGOS!!!

Okay, new question: What do you do with hypocrites?

I propose burning them at the stake!

J/k. But really, when someone really fucking irks you, what do you do?

Anachronist - June 27, 2007 10:10 PM (GMT)
Well, thats all good and stuff, but.......


Every Day, Bush Gets Up in The Morning, Wrestles with the English Language.





And Loses.

That was by a friend I made here at Camp, Kirill. He's wierd, but freaking awesome. Umm, As to the question, why don't we just send em' all to your house, Lainey? I'm sure you'd scar them for life.

KatanokiChaos - June 29, 2007 07:47 PM (GMT)
Aww, Adam, I handle enough as it is with the crazies I live with and the psychos I hang around. I certainly don't need more.

Bleh. I need to remember to speak loudly but calmly and clearly. Otherwise, it goes in one ear and out the other.

Devking - July 1, 2007 02:00 AM (GMT)
If she really spent her time sending hypocrites to her house, then I'd probably arrive there. >.>

Anyways, I don't really mind the random hypocrites who walk the Earth. I keep my feelings for myself. Most of the time. But still, "don't really mind" is the way to go.

-gets pellited by a barrage of rotten fruits and som--WTF?! IS THAT A TOWEL?!---

P.S. The answer is 42. No duh. xD

KatanokiChaos - July 2, 2007 02:47 AM (GMT)
New question: Name one fictional character who deserves to die a horrible death and why.

Me? I say Takeda Kanryu. He was the bastard who sent Aoshi completely over the edge by killing his men.

And that's not even taking into account all the non-con fanfic. Fucking a.

Devking - July 2, 2007 03:49 AM (GMT)
You're really obsessed with Rurouni Kenshin and Aoshi Shiniomori, aren't you? 0.o

Anyways, I think Renge from Ouran High School Host Club should die a horrible death, because she's just annoying. There is no addition to the plotline with her, no comic relief at all, her appearances are what degrades the anime, and her laugh SUX!!!

Yea.

KatanokiChaos - July 3, 2007 01:25 AM (GMT)
Shinomori.

'Cause, he's secks. ^_^

Angrite and Anachronist can fully appreciate just how obsessed I am.
