I kinda wish that the board didn't show post counts to be honest.

I'm content with my modest 3 or 4 posts per day.
I guess so.

I average six per day, it seems, although my postcount is missing a couple thousand

I really didn't lose many posts at all in the switch. Maybe 300 or something, if that. I did, however, lose a lot of karma points. I miss being an Honored Leader. :P

I've got an abnormal amount of posts, but I'm not really caring about that kinda of stuff anymore. If this were under normal circumstances, I've have over 2000. I'm just here to comment on stuff, and help people in the Nova Board. My post count has no real value to me.

Sanity brings Clarity. Clarity brings Understanding. Understanding makes everything boring as hell.

I was going to make a crack about heavy petting our man Sparky but decided that it would probably be illegal in most states.

Instead, what's up with the idiom "heavy petting?" Kissing someone while groping them doesn't make the groping heavy. Kissing gets heavy with the addition of sexual touching, but since when is kissing called "petting?"

I think the term heavy petting is an Americanism. I've heard of it, but never heard it used over here. Just you guys destroying our beautiful language, one word at a time :P

It's why you should never consume brussel sprouts, cooked in curry powder, tobasco and gunpowder. Lethal combination.

If not for the gunpowder bit, that doesn't sound too bad.

Not a gravedig.


What does it "mean" when you dream and remember something from another dream. Allow me to clarify.

While dreaming, I was talking to someone and during the conversation I say, "Oh yeah.. I remember doing that with you."

Now the thing that I did with them.. was something I dreamed about months and months and months ago. Something completely made up. It's bizarre, and my brain immediately went, "WHAT?!?"

It was so strange.. I love dreaming - I do it as often as possible.
Whatever happens..happens.

I've had running stories and recurring, non-real life characters in my dreams in the past. It is rather interesting.

I get those sometimes too. And sometimes I have dreams that visit back to ones I had months and months or years ago even. It's sort of like continuations.

One of the more common recurring ones involves Johnny Depp, Pirate ships, and nuclear warfare. It's quite strange - and I couldn't even try and describe it if I wanted to. (Which I often want to.. I just have the inability to put my thoughts on paper.)

When I have dreams like that I often wonder if I actually only dreamed about dreaming something. I know for a fact I have done that a few times.

A while back, I dreamt up a system of mathematics that used three dimensional polygons to represent huge, enormous numbers. The level of complexity required to do that was staggering, how my brain could even grasp it in my sleep is beyond me.

The 90% of your brain usually devoted to sex wasn't being used. :P
