Do you ever feel like you have a sixth sence such as being a psychic or something of the sort?

I can tell when there is something electrical on. Like if the tv is on in a room at school and its on mute or on aux channel or something, I can always tell that it is on.

Edit: I dont know why I can never spell sense right...:mad:

I can guess things spookily accurately. Mostly number-related. But like I said, it's just guessing. I wish it was a sixth sense, but it's not.

I mean, I SEE DEAD WILLIS.

Oh, and I am sure it is just coincedence, but when I was playing GTA: san andreas, I was playing the wheel of fortune gambling game in the casino. I put $100000 on 40 just because it felt right, and I got it and made $4000000. Then later on a different playthrough, I put $1000000 on 40, again, just because it felt right, and I made $40000000:D

I think I have only had the wheel land on 40 about 3 times in all my playthroughs, and 2 of them I guessed.

The reason you can tell when electrical things are on is because you can hear them

This. Electrical devices often emit various forms of noise simply from being turned on, regardless of what's supposed to come out of the speakers of the device. Old CRTs have a very distinct noise at somewhere between 14 and 16 kHz, depending on which refresh rate it was set to. Many other devices have some degree of noise coming from voltage transformers, or other components that you'd think would be entirely quiet just because they have no moving parts.

There's nothing magical about this, and if we had a better sense of hearing, like a cat's, we'd probably hear even more strange noises from our devices.

Come back when you can reliably read the future or something equally impressive :p.

Not nearly enough, because the minds of a human male are about as hard to read as a kindergarden picture book.


Ok that was an exaggeration. Try a first grade english textbook.

Do you have win/lose statistics for this game? How can you know that rockstar isn't just being nice to you and give you a 75% or more chance of winning?

Ok fine I will go up now and put money on 40 every time until I get 40 and I will tell you how many times it took...

Sometimes i meet people who my friends say are legit and are fun easy going people, but the vibe i get from them is just wrong. Well i warn them to stay clear of that person, or just be wary, they dont take that to note and then my bad feelings end up being right. Also, i dream about things before they happen.

I think i was able to astral project once and memorised the location of an object i saw during the experience to verify if it was astral projection or just a dream and when i got back it was where i thought it was! But that might just be a result of subconcious memory. I was still surprised though.

My dreams sometimes help me predict things. It happened twice. I knew a relative would die.

Or it could be just a coincidence.

Mirage
07-26-2008, 04:24 PM
actually, you have a lot more senses than 5. Balance is a sense too, and so is that strange sense that let you know where all your limbs are even if you close your eyes. That's also what helps you walk and run without constantly staring at your feet. There are more, but I don't remember them at the top of my head.

All your relatives will die at some point, so any dream about one of them dying will sooner or later come true. :)

It's not exactly them dying in a dream. Whenever I wake up from a dream that I interpret as something bad, I feel anxious the whole day. That's what makes it different. A dreaded feeling from your gut that tells you, something bad has or will happen. I'm kinda sensitive, its hard to explain...

41 tries is hardly statistically significant. Try 10000.

I have a twin and we would often think of the same things at the same time, but I would attribute that to our close relationship more than psychic bonds. And no I wouldn't feel it if he got hurt.

There have been strange moments in my life. I once took an ecology course as an ungrad at a different college simply because my regular college didn't offer any ecology classes. Turns out when I went for my master's I needed ecology as a prerequisite. I would have taken a remedial class had it not been for that offhand decision years before. But that happens to everyone I guess.

Well, you know, I think that someone with actual precognition would remain quiet about it on a public forum.

I've always been able to do that. Sometimes I can tell who will/won't be online when I sign into Yahoo Messenger. I've also made a few weird predictions that can't really be explained. More often than not, whenever I get a friend request here on EoFF I know who it is, but that could be because I usually talk to a person first.

This is the only thing I believe in because it happens to me all the time. I think it's not really a "vibe" thing, I think our friends are just really stupid and pick the wrong people to hang out with. At least, that was my problem. My friends would either lie to me and tell me the people were cool or they'd honestly not be able to tell/wouldn't believe that the friends in question were talking behind their backs. Sometimes it just takes a set of unbiased eyes to see the truth.

For instance, how many lives could have been saved on september 11 2001 had a "psychic" knew it would have happened on september 10? Quite alot of people I would guess.

You are mistaking psychic for someone who has precognition. Psychic is a generic term to describe a person who is in possession of a paranormal ability, whether this be a medium, clairvoyant/audience, psychometry, etc...It can include precog but not limited to it. Personally, I am very skeptical about people who claim to be precog. I believe everyone from time to time has a precog experience to various degrees but I doubt anyone who claims to be an active precog.

Stemming from my spiritual belief that energy permeates the universe, I believe that we all have the capacity to empathize with said energy though for some it is easier than others. To the same extent we can be sensitive to personal energies as well. Haphazardly, I pick up on these things, often with someone who I share a close emotional bond to.

What people dont understand is that almost everyone has dejavu or have some sort of precognition. It doesnt mean you have powers at all. Your subconsious knows things by deduction about the actions you would take in a situation, so its bound to happen that you'll be doing something one day and you just so happen to get dejacu because you take the actions your subconsious knows of.
Thats why dejavu and precognition is mostly a normal thing. There are people however who know of things about others without knowing the person. Thats what i think is being able to see with a "third eye". Its rare but i wouldnt be surprised if it happens.
Also, people are naturally keen to sense when a "supernatural being" is present. For instance the other day my bf and i went to seattle and we found ourselves drawn to this antique shop. We go in and i start looking at dressers....Well one i went to, i opened the door and all my hair got raised and i went into cold sweats. I tried looking inside but when i looked in i saw through the eyes of a little girl, and she was frightened. I dont know why that happened but i slammed the door, faltered back a couple steps and told my bf not to go near it. He got the same feeling from it. There are just some things that may be linked with something above our believe/knowledge barriers.

IN CONCLUSION, therefore, suchas, likewise, for our nations children.
