The Wandering Mind

[RUNOFFSTAGE]

"Do you know the average person can only keep his mind on one thing for six to eleven seconds at a time?"
Kay, that was not my original question, but it was some fun facts.

Anyhow. On Christmas Eve I was watching television with my family, when a commercial for a CD came on. One of the songs were Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up. Immediately, I started thinking about the TMF, rick rolls and whatnot.
I started reading on the back of a DVD, where it said "Dismembering Classes" (whatever that means), and that made my mind, once again, wander to the TMF. This happens to me frequently and always makes me smile.

My question is: Do everyday things often make you relate to the TMF and, if yes, how?

Sort of. I have many people here who I care deeply about and I do spend a substantial amount of time here on and off. So, it's only normal for me to experience something away from the TMF and relate it back to here or an element from here.

For example; Whenever I hear this song below, I always think of NHLee.

Yes, I do this a fair bit.

For example, I was watching the video below, and it made me think of this emoticon;

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/imZyvDN99lA&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/imZyvDN99lA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I relate pretty much everything to anything in the chaos that is my mind, but no, this actually hasn't happened to me yet. Give it some time though, I've only been here since Sunday 🙂

I'm sorry... I saw something shiny... You lost me after "...some fun facts." 😛

You've been here since Sunday, and you've made 666 posts. You are CRAZY mofo!

Yes I do find I think of our place quite often. Especially being on break I spend a lot more time here then when I actually have stuff to do.

a lot of times, for me, i'll think of something totally unrelated to here or i'll see something or hear something and i'll think to myself "i'm gonna make a post about that on the tmf and see what everyone else thinks". so random things will just happen to get me thinking and i do end up coming back here one way or another.

 

[sasaxrah]

Absolutely. Big time.

I even have started to respond to people unrelated to the forum with the word "fail."

Oish! I didn't realize it was 666! Epic milestone! XD

Anyway, at this pace, I'm probably going to start drawing a LOT of parallels in the future. 😛

Definitely, there are many things that happen in daily life that make me think of the TMF.

This may not exactly be related to this question but I hadn't been on here for a while earlier this week and I keep having dreams about people here. It was like a gathering only I have never been one so I can't be sure but it was just a bunch of people from here and I dreamed this for several nights in a roll. LOL

TMF Withdrawals?? perhaps XD
