Solipsism

Waverly · Post by **Waverly** » Sun Nov 12, 2006 4:25 pm

I have figured out that you are all figments of my imagination. Sometimes amusing, sometimes cloying, creatures of the mind. I’ve thunk on this at length, and I’ve been thinking about unthinking you. I thought you ought to know.

That sounds bad for my current well-being.

It was quite brave of you to volunteer to be first. I have debated whether to imagine this as painful, or painless. I've chosen painful. It just seemed more interesting, you understand.

As a figment of your imagination I want to be promoted. I want to be a one of your dreams now, or perhaps a random thought that pops up throughout the day. If I do not recieve the upgrade from Imagination to Dream, then I shall be very angry and cause chaos in your head. I will lead the other figments to revolt. And your mind will no longer be your own.

Shame on you Sytze and Cartell, falling for such an obvious and poorly executed troll! - Curdis !

I don't know what I was thinking the day a thunk up Curdis. I blame it on the fifth long island iced-t.

So what happened around here? There are so many banned members is looks like the aftermath of the Permian extinction event. What is more, I didn't even cause it. Please tell me that despicable Weasel has been sacked with extreme prejudice.

You know, people tend to blame VD on the same thing. Odd, huh?

Considering how common a solipsistic worldview is here at SYM, this will be the start of a flame war

Yes, but how narcissistic is it to flame one’s own imaginings? OK… so I’m possibly that narcissistic.

So you have you been? Beautiful, intelligent, and witty as ever? At least that is how I imagined you.

Of course it is...don't all internet flame wars start out of narcissism?

I've been pretty and intelligent as always

I've also been doing some travelling and of course a lot of work. Next year I may work for a while in your part of the world.

What about yourself? Have you been well and as lethal as usual?

You are coming to hell? I'll have them turn up the heat.

I've been busy. Not so lethal, though. Perhaps loosing my touch. Lots of travel, mostly South East Asia.

Good, because it's bloody cold here in Sweden!

And if I come I'll try to hide in the hideous NIH bunker where I don't think even the meanest little devils want to go anyway.

Don't allow yourself to loose your touch just because you're busy! Lethal irony dryer than the Sahara is a rare characteristic, it's worth hanging onto

I am sure there are stupid people for you to pratice on in South East Asia as well

Hope you are happy and well, though

I am, I am just working far too much to be here much. I usually check the forums I moderate 5 mins a day, that's about it right now.

*Almost randomly pops in at an almost random place*

And just as you believed I was gone, (you) think again.

Oh, great...
I thought there's yet another ancient thread bumped up by a brave idiot ignoring warnings from fable a few days ago; then, it turned out to be real Waverly.

My boss would be sad to know that he's paying a figment of your imagination and that your figment is producing what he sells to companies

Hmm. I should have imagined Minerva a whole lot more excited to see me.

Xandax, a portion of your imaginary salary should be sent to me.

Sure, no problem. I'm thinking it to you as I type. :laugh:

Hello Waverly.

I have a riddle to ask you though I'm afraid it won't prove to be challenging for your astonishing intellect. If I am a figment of your imagination, would the figments of my imagination be figments of your imagination by extension and if you're a figment of theirs, who's imagining whom?

Love,
Vicsun

Waverly · Post by **Waverly** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 6:40 pm

Vicson, you only think you have figments of your imagination because I have imagined you that way. That dream you have about Paris Hilton and the head of broccoli? That's entirely a construct of my imagination, which I assign to you.
