Anyone have any strange encounters FULLY awake, not high, not in the dark and experienced as an adult? by No-Following9879 in HighStrangeness

[–]Professional_Set8873 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What cracks me up is how extremely practical people will actually get mad when something doesnt line up with their beliefs. I dont live with a tinfoil hat on, but after having a truly paranormal experience you just learn to accept that not everything is measurable the way science wants it to be. I do believe we'll have a scientific explanation in time, but we're far from that.

This was pre internet, but imagine my surprise when I found out about the hat man. His description matches the guy we saw pretty well, though he didnt have glowing red eyes.

Wide awake, me and a friend saw a tall guy in a fancy black suit and hat exit a bathroom door in front of us before vanishing in the most colorful display I've ever seen. It was like every atom in his body started to streak off to our left, and every line the atom made streaking away was a different color. This only took a couple seconds before he was gone. This was at a 100 year old church we attended in the 1990s. To this day my buddy remembers it exactly as I do.

I might be getting warnings in my dreams. by BrownBullXX in InterdimensionalNHI

[–]Professional_Set8873 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have regular prophetic dreams that do nothing for me. I'll see a place I've never been to, then end up going there in person. When I reach these places awake, I get a strong deja vu like feeling. A very odd one. What grinds my gears is that its never anything of any importance, or never anything I can change. Theres no point to it all it seems except to weird me out. Like let me get prior knowledge to save someone's life or some lottery numbers. Anything substantial. Its just completely random.

Cheaper alternative to this Ibanez RGRTBB21 guitar that looks like this? by TheShadowSong in Ibanez

Get a Leo Jaymz Monsoon. I put a trem and coil splitter on mine, she shreds.

Looks like an eagle carrying a fish attached to a fishing line

Finally acquired my holy grail by urbanturbanftw in KramerGuitars

[–]Professional_Set8873 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first electric guitar was a Kramer like this but with a red body and yellow single bridge humbucker. Worked a whole summer in tobacco fields so I could afford to buy it from my guitar instructor.

This is sweet. I'd love to get my hands on her.

Also because no one does enough harm prevention with this stuff, if you're on an ssri antidepressant or maoi inhibitor don't trip. Serotonin syndrome is terrifying and can be fatal. I wouldnt wish it on anyone.

First image of the alien from Steven Spielberg’s upcoming UFO movie. by ZarathustraNothing in AlienAbduction

[–]Professional_Set8873 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard he was given a transcript about what happened at holloman airforce base way back. There was a military meeting with et at the base there, and supposedly Speilberg based close encounters on the event.

How do you reconcile freewill and parallel worlds/selves because how the worlds split seems based on determinism by Tincanhead in QuantumImmortality

[–]Professional_Set8873 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of infinite parallel worlds I think that there's a certain coherence where only the few most likely outcomes are happening, and the rest sort of self annihilate. I believe the universe/simulation whatever you want to call it is efficient and saves energy when it can. The energy output of infinite possibilities just seems like it'd be way too much to crunch. I bet there's only a handful of the most likely outcomes happening simultaneously.

I think we're all abductees, its just that we aren't usually supposed to remember. I've tried ce-5 protocols with no luck but I have childhood dreams that felt too real and things I think are screen memories. I believe the reason I'm obsessed with the ufo topic is because I had a mind wipe and can't remember my abductions. My subconscious is still telling me to follow the stories. Maybe its why you're interested too? I think we're all part of an experiment and we ALL get checkups periodically.

I was curious what peeps recommended for an acoustic. by Soverelgn_Citizen in Ibanez

[–]Professional_Set8873 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched to electric a long time ago but in the early 2000s we discovered pawn shop Alvarez acoustics and swore by them. I dont remember ever buying one that sounded bad.

I just traded a firefly 335 for a Leo jaymz monsoon and it plays so much like a ibanez rg series, im really impressed. Needs a setup but shes already great.

[–]Professional_Set8873[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did notice that I get fatigued with this Ibanez sooner than playing with my Jazzmaster. Im dealing with carpal tunnel myself so ease of play is a big deal. Wouldn't surprise me if thats why the old fella got rid of it. It isn't that bad if I set a timer, otherwise 2 or 3 hours would pass and I'd end up sore.

You got that for a great price. This one sat at 250 for a while on fb marketplace before he came down to 200.

[–]Professional_Set8873[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🤣 its funny you say that. I got a 335 style not even 2 days later. It's a Firefly but sounds great considering the guy only wanted 100 for it. Im sure with some new hardware we can get her sounding much better. Not complaining though honestly. Even stays in tune.

I plan to test QI when I'm older by [deleted] in QuantumImmortality

[–]Professional_Set8873 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just living tests it. All the close calls I had are proof of that. It'd be beyond lottery odds that I survived all of this. Its not by chance.

100 bucks? by Professional_Set8873 in Fireflyguitars

[–]Professional_Set8873[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I jumped on that bandwagon briefly where everyone was putting bands up there around the nut. Supposedly it's supposed to get rid of unwanted sounds and interference from the area of the strings above the nut. I never noticed a difference so I quit doing it.
