Greetings.

Do you ever, in your spare time, think up entirely absurd things that are, for lack of a better term, insane? This, I suspect, (unless you relish normality like gold) is true on at least one occasion in your life. I, myself, take pride in being absolutely ridiculous on occasion, especially at times when it suits the timing. Because, as well as in comedy, timing is important.

I would like, therefore, to open discussion on the entirely silly and bizarre, involving both your take on the matter and...just anything notably crazy that comes to mind. Stories, conjectures, and opinions are welcome. And with that in mind, since I brought up timing, I shall inform you of the best method in which to make time run backwards.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It is wildly believed, at times, that merely making a clock-face run counter-clockwise of its own free will is the indication that time will flow backwards. A preposterous notion! I scoff at it! *Scoff, scoff!* No, because that would be far too simple a task. I will, however, impart the knowledge of the proper procedure. You see, getting the arms of a clock-face to run backwards is only the tiniest step. What you need to do is reverse and backwardsify the face itself, so that the numbers are as a mirror-reflection to their original positions, thus backwards and read backwards as well. THEN, you make the clock run backwards, which is actually forwards, because you're starting up the reverse of the reversal from then you started this business. (This way, you don't have to gimmick up the gears, see.) Do this, and do not forget to turn the pendulum backwards and hang the clock itself backwards so that the face is facing the wall. Now, all you have to do is figure out a way to make the clock go "Kcot, kcit, kcot, kcit..." and you're done!

Simple, isn't it?

The OP just made my day. Thank you.

However, I cannot remember anything at the moment to contribute. Damnit.

I got tired of people looking at me with awkward faces and chucking rocks in my direction, so I opt to keep such comments to myself when they turn up in mind.

However, this has not in the least swayed me from finalizing my plans for taking over Gotham City and the rest of the world.

Oh yes. My day will come.

Me and my friend once came up with plans to turn Australia's Parlarmint House into a fortress fit for a dictator. Why you ask, because that day's lesson of politics and law was boring.

See, that's the problem with you spandex-clad supervillains. Why do you always have to start with Gotham City? If you want the rest of the world, just take it, for god's sake. Leave Gotham City alone. Because you have to know by now that if you start with Gotham, Batman is just going to kick your ass, and you'll never get the chance at the rest of the world.

Sheesh, you people. The Joker goes and shoots Barbara Gordon, and now every lunatic thinks he's gotdang Bane. No wonder Lex Luthor stopped associating with the rest of you after the 70s.

IN OTHER NEWS, there will be pretzels and orange drink in the auxiliary basement between 4 and 6 am this morning. Please only take six pretzels, but you can have as much orange drink as you'd like. We'll just keep watering down the Tang. And we can go on like this FOREVER.

I once came up with plans to bioengineer automobiles out of dog and ostrich fetuses. Because what's cheaper than a growable car? But I could never figure out just how to get it to work without incurring the wrath of pretty much everyone.

I nearly tied a pet mouse to a few helium balloons and let it go outside, and then let it down gently with a BB Gun. Nearly. I was outside with the poor creature in my hands and decided it would be a ***** to get down, especially if I completely missed and shot it in its little mouse-y heart.

Next time, use gerbils.

Because we all know gerbils are bulletproof. And are eaten by Peruvians. Maybe I could make a small balloon-powered convoy of gerbils to Peru from across the Pacific as a gesture of kindness for naming one of their lakes Titicaca?

lol titicaca.

You have no idea what you have just done cause now whenever I have a crazy or insane thought I am just going to have to put it here. Like this one...

I was actually just walking down the street on my college campus in an extremely foul mood and I remembered someone once told me that when you are feeling down just start skipping and you will feel better. So of course I decided to start skipping and strange enough my mood changes to happy. It was then that I started to notice that 4 people were following me in my skipping manner. I didn't question it and neither did they we all just started skipping. Another block passed and my small group of 4 turned into a large group of 15 just skipping for no reason. As this happened I got to thinking what if this is how hostile takeovers began. With one guy doing nothing and people just deciding to follow him for no good reason. What if I decided to turn around and start giving orders of extreme hostility including seal clubbing and baby eating to mark our place in society and they did it. All because I choose to skip. As my group of skip happy minions ravage the land around us people send their armies to battle us but due to my severe nonchalant attitude passed on to them we are given no trouble and carry on. Soon more people join our cause even though they have no idea what's going on. I decided to spread my skipping views overseas and send my initial 15 to travel the world and it acts as a poison that pollutes everywhere until its all under my control all because I decided to skip rather than walk. I hope my friend would be happy cause it was him that would have caused this. All those actions crossed my mind and then I wondered what would happen if I decided to hop instead of skip.

So many possibilities huh?

WARNUNG GRATUTIOUS LANGUAGE AHOY
Seriously, don't go ahead and read this if you're going to rage at me because I drop the f bomb like a ten year old who just found out what it means.

I know it's incredibly juvenile, but I find it hilarious when normal everyday things are suddenly ramped up (in my head) by over the top swearing and enthusiasm.
Original: Mccain sweet baby vegetables, so sweet and delicious.
My head (immediately) hears as: FUCK I LOVE MCCAIN'S VEGETABLES! THEY'RE SO MOTHERFUCKING SWEET AND TASTY OH SHIT DUDE TRY THEM!

Or, watching shows, just characters having incredibly passive attitudes, but swearing at loved ones:
Smallville: Lex: Lana, sit down.
Again, I'm an idiot: Lana, what the fuck are you doing?

Again, I know how juvenile it is, and writing it doesn't quite convey the laughing fits that I give myself, but I think that it's pretty much madness.

So what happened to your skipping group? Was it the next Forrest Gump-esque revolution, or did you just make the whole "people following you with skipping" part up?

This made my day. I also remembered the line in V for Vendetta. "What will happen then? What usually happens when people with goals meet people without goals"

You fool! These links are unstable! You'll kill us all!

*Pause*

Actually, I'll kill us all, except for the part about me in all that. Did I ever tell you folks that I am just one big charismatic villain? So many fun things to get away with, and yet no record or suspicion. Brother, expect a hitman by the end of the week. Oh, and don't open your mail. Mwa ha ha haaa...

EDIT: Also, if we're quoting V, let's go for my favorite line: "This isn't anarchy, Evey. This is chaos."

my dad has clock like this in the kitchen. the numbers are in reverse (12 at the top, then going round clockwise; 11, 10 etc) and the hands go round anti-clockwise.

This thread has really cheered me up, I know exactly what you mean though. I often find my boredom leads me to think/do crazy things. I'll bookmark the thread and return during my next bout of chronic boredom.
