Confessions Thread! (keep it civil, folks.)

[J7string]

Oh shit...

That's a lot.

Yup, watch out for me. I will get you in the night.

 

[Konfyouzd]

I have no reason to worry. I don't harbor those feelings deep in my man closet. But apparently a lot of us do.

Yeah, and I'm not imposing, but I can't help it when attraction sets in lol.

If you go back to Greek and Roman times and the things they did for fun, we're pretty much all gay.

Someone challenged me to the ALS thingy. I ignored it. I'm taking back FB, one ignored ALSicechallenge at a time.

 

[asher]

Someone did for me too.

I donated.

Confession for the day: I have the ability to cause goosebumps at will. There's random discussions on the internet about it that describe the same thing, a sort of "wave" that starts at the back of the neck, that spreads to the arms etc and brings goosebumps with it. It's kind of like what you'd feel in response to fear, or a shock, or even just a "shiver" when cold- but I can just trigger it whenever I want.

Most people I describe that to just think I'm crazy.

Edit: I forgot how to spell "to"...

Interesting. I've known how to do this since I was like 8; I kept waiting for the rest of my superpowers to develop. To this day I've never even known how to describe it and therefore never knew anyone else that could do it.

I hate reality TV. I don't mean I don't like it and won't watch it unless nothing else is on, I mean seriously HATE it to the point where if I could go back in time to before it was invented and find the guy that thought it up I'd most likely kick him to death with some steel toed Docs. Dude killed TV for me....I can't even watch it anymore...probably not a bad thing but still.

Also the fanboyism with celebrities gets on my nerves....are people so bored in their own lives that whatever Brad Pitt is doing that day is so much more interesting? I had friends when I was younger that almost couldn't talk about anything else. We're not friends anymore.

There are discussions about it out there on the interwebs, a lot of times attributed to or in relation to meditation, yoga, the supernatural, etc.

I just learned that it has a name: Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR). The same name is used for those who can trigger it themselves, or have the sensation triggered by being scared or something. Edit: possibly also "frisson" or something like that. There are arguments over the differences between the two, or causes/triggers.

This is badass....I just looked it up and will dig into it in more detail when I have some more time. Thanks for the heads-up man!

I can generate the start of the feeling reasonably easily, I could probably trigger it properly if I put some effort into it.

I didn't know cider was alcoholic after my 3rd can today. (Are they ALL alcoholic?)

 

[chopeth]

Same here about beer after 20 years drinking it

 

[TedEH]

Are they ALL alcoholic?

They're not all alcoholic. Depends on location and context. I originally thought all cider was non-alcoholic until someone introduced me to "hard cider".

 

[mr_rainmaker]

Sometimes I sleep with a stuffed animal. I partially lay on it to contour my body more comfortably. It's smaller than using another pillow, which is what I do if I'm in a hotel or something.

uhhh depends on WHAT kinda stuffed animal it is

 

[Nats]

My little pony, obviously.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

I'm shaking. Fvcking anxiety. My ex wife is coming to pick up our son for the weekend. I constantly fear for his safety when she has him.

 

[lelandbowman3]

I actually want to believe in supernatural phenomena. Not just ghosts, but cryptids and other paranormal stuff as well.

 

[Alex Kenivel]

I want to hear genres like Technical Nu-Metal and Pop-Death

 

[CRASHER369]

I just spent the night (not sexually) with an amazing girl i met at college, the problem is I have a girlfriend at home. This is taking a serious toll on my mental stability. She knows what's going on back and respects it, but its just a cluster f***.
