I wonder about the connection between dreaming in general, as well as lucid dreaming, with OOBE's as well, but as above with 180, I'm not beginning wi...

I've wondered about the connection between psychedelics and OOBEs as well, but I don't begin by assuming they're the same experience (seems like the r...

This reminds me of the bird avatar days. Also why has no one apparently had an out-of-body-experience before?

You would be more interesting to only have downvotes for, yes.

"Liked"

Thank you. :cry: Reciprocated.

I see the mods are the only ones with significant likes. No doubt a conspiracy begun by @"Hanover" to begin his ascendancy to forum emperor.

There's always a smaller tow truck.

Stowing stars and tucking dippers in the glove compartment of your bigger, slower tow truck goes far until you slip and get stuck in some grotesque mu...

What truck tows the tow truck that tows tow trucks?

I'm down to take a shot.

As a perfectionist with low self-esteem I beg to differ.

Ha, I can try to dig something up. The better examples are works in progress still.

I'm not sure what argument you're making, if any. Hazy generalizations don't get us anywhere.

Honestly it's been so long since I've read that book that I probably need to revisit it. I'm sure the way I use intensification is a pale comparison t...

The concept of Intensification is the one that's influenced me the most. I use it sometimes to create rhythmic structures in music, to the point that ...

I've eaten cookies that don't taste like cookies. They're the ones I made and I don't know how to bake. There are no coincidences.

I've eaten insects in America. They were baked into cookies, so they tasted like cookies.

Correct me if I'm wrong but it sounds like you're critiquing a literalist interpretation of the Bible, which is pretty well known to be an extremely m...

I think the Bible can serve as a starting point in exploring philosophical questions; it certainly did for me, and probably has for a lot of people ra...

Yes it is. The second track is my favorite.

I anticipate a lot of unnecessary and distracting aggravating text formatting on the one hand, and a none-too-gradual devolution into "name-calling" o...

I agree, I'm just pointing out that brevity is a grammatical skill that can be learned; I would say it's a sign of intelligence, but not wisdom. But t...

Are you sure these slogans will fit on one of those ugly lawn signs?

Brevity is seductive.

Reading through the thread, I think it's premise is being demonstrated pretty well, especially in relation to those of you who's views I know pretty w...

Hanover - the G.I.S.T. (rather than the G.O.A.T.; "in some" rather than "of all"). Hanover - you get the gist!

:cheer: I love jokes, especially in the middle of serious threads.

That makes sense, but actually I realize I responded too quickly...what I wanted to intimate, as maybe a half-joke, was that you are attempting to rep...

Is this a new "counter culture"?

Late to the party as always, and haven't read the rest of the thread... I think this is just the rub; you appear to be concerned that philosophical qu...

Thanks.

I hold them in a flamingo stance to expose who's who.

I think drunk me last night meant to say a lot more to enumerate that idea. Sober me might have to consult drunk me at a later time.

Anyway, I know it's the shoutbox, but I'll just lob a few lazy throws: Justice is a weirdly pseudo-Christian concept as far as I can tell, so if we st...

Yeah, I think so. I had an internal chuckle.

Whoops, I misread you as responding to @"frank" directly above you

Word. Well, I appear to be drunk, so I think I'll edit this post.

Is this some kind of millennial jargon I should be privy to but am not?
