Dear BlackSatinDancer,
I don't think you are crazy.
I think you are exceptional.
Let me specify. I mean exceptional in the contexts of 1, 2, and the first half of 3a.
I asked you the question. It only seems fair I share more of what "criptics" (to borrow your teminology) means to me. I may have to give this some more thought over the course of this thread, though.
What is "criptics" to me? How would I explain or define it?
Sometimes a secret is just a seek writ.
I have a fetish for words, and what they can mean to people at many levels, and what associations they themselves make with words.
I really appreciated your response to my question so far. My favorite parts were paragraphs 4,5, and 6. Your sixth paragraph brought me to tears. Tears of joy and affirmation, not sadness or pity. I'm a 39 year old man of relatively large stature, physically. I was firefighter in the usaf for 11 years, and spent 4 years of my life in austere hostile warzones. At Goodfellow Air Force Base in Texas there are two schools. One is the Fire Acadamy, which I attended. The other is an intel school that is mostly for cryptology and pysops tactics.
I so hope more people take the time to read the sixth paragraph. I liked it so much I'm going to quote it again here:
"Now you don't give a # if people think you are crazy... you just want to know what the hell is going on. More and more you start noticing that undertalk everywhere you go and it really starts messing with your head. You're not the only one though. Somewhere within the never ending chatter there is a coherency that is above it and holds your attention. You have been avoiding the dialogue with others that don't get you and now notice that some people know exactly what you are going through and some seem to be trying to help and some seem to be out to get you. Others do not notice the undertalk even in public if they have not been brought to that level on that subject. Random interjection can begin to tell stories, pictures can give you answers... but now you've got to consider if they are sincere or just reading your mind and messing with you.... they begin showing you things. You begin throwing your confusion on the table in bits and pieces if nothing more that to see if you get a reaction because finding answers becomes most important to a near dysfunctional extent because of all the things happening around you. What you are doing is not throwing your subconscious out for trivial mundane crap, but you start throwing it out for truth, THEN! you start getting affirmation. Answers back. Someone is putting them there... the fact that you don't know something about it and have to dig in some way is what makes it "cryptic"... it's vaulted... you have to hit some key, be on some wavelength to read between the lines.... and then you have to question on every imaginable mental level you can access if you are going nuts and imagining it because it's touch and go... touch and go. Sometimes you just let it sleep. Sometimes you think you see it but you are just jumping to conclusions." - BlackSatinDancer
I'm going to give myself some time to internalize and digest those words. Thank you for sharing, btw.
I ♥ that 6th paragraph.
☮, ILOVE★ ✩ ✮ ✯ ✰ ☆

Then he found things that really screwed with his head. Not only has he pulled this into reality by his own imagination and paranoia of all of it, but somebody else knew it would happen well before that.... and that is who visited me when I was five. So looking back, he could exploit those triggers in me because he knew that I knew that it was all real.... because I have seen it with my own eyes.
You can't beat Xezbeth if you already let him in. Even if by accident.

Fear lives in darkness. By saying the words out loud, you bring it out into the light. The fear loses all its power and the light shines brighter.
Sometimes that light isn't only for yourself, but also for others who only needed to know that there was another faintly glowing light on the path.
Regardless of the reactions and opinions of the watchers and the participators, keep right on bringing the words into the light.
And that's all I have to say 'bout that, because words aren't adequate right now.

I have to overlook so much, it's hard to function in society... period. I have to numb myself to triggers constantly. They got other people going with that stuff and it just ripples out. They demonized us.
Is english your first language? A lot of the crypto-isms are, in fact, just bad syntax. ex: first sentence
If you are talking about the title, common sense should let you know that in a short field, it's more important to get your point across than it is to play by grammar and vocabulary rules.
I get my point across... sometimes too well.
as for the cryptics... you are missing it silly. It's right under your nose.
I'm trying to fill in the blanks, and no the title is not what I was talking about. I find myself trying to determine between crypto-s and the ebonics. (Which parts to see as cryptic and which parts to see as bad grammar-ebonics
beleive me, I want to figure this out because of some things that I have seen.
You lost me because I wasn't really adding too much slang into the first post so I'm not real sure what you're hoping to accomplish here by critiquing my grammar. I made it very clear that some would not understand. Is this what you were trying to say... That you don't understand?
Maybe you should just try mentioning what YOU have experienced because I do know how to talk and if I sometimes choose to use slang, I think you should respect the fact that people come from different cultures and I grew up around a lot of other funny talking people of all kinds and we seem to be pretty proud of it... and quite frankly, sometimes it's faster to spit your point out with slang.
Now sometimes I feel pressed for time and maybe make hasty posts and forget to mention certain things that would make my points more clear, but I have written books worth of very coherent and thought provoking material to people and many have told me things like "You write very well" and "I can tell you are very smart by the way you write"
I get told stuff like this a lot and have ever since I was quite young so I really don't see how your statement is really... pertinent?
I'll also mention that no one is helping me write this and tell the very complex and nearly surreal stories that I have to tell.... because, well... this is my life. People mess with me and I will react and I know I am not the only one who has been jerked around by people.
If you're not helping shed light... You're not doing the work so maybe you should put something out there to prove YOU can write and have the right to be critiquing others... how about that?

I'm not saying throw everything around like party confetti, but things stew for a while and I have to figure out a way to understand it... Sometimes you just can't sit and figure it all out on your own...

are you joking. you exhibit delusional arrogance. you can call it "guess my crypto", but it is nothing but an old fashioned (played millions of times over) game of "guess who I am thinking of"
p.s. I've seen pictures of a young Obama with bandannas around his neck.

Some of the things you say have strong connections to what I experienced recently, I don't know cryptic lingo, but i was "shown" a lot of cryptic symbols. Do they things you were shown seem sinister, or give you an eternal feens are one in the same, or not believe at all? Have you ever "bugged out" hard?
Do the words "spun" or "cryptocracy" have any relevance?

It's just really weird how all this plays out.

As for me, I see things in black and white - no grey areas at all. And, I read this thread from the beginning to right here. Now, either I am really stupid and can't figure out what the heck you all are talking about, or you all are crazy. Not that I have anything against crazy people, I have dealt with them a lot and for the most part, crazy people don't tend txtremes to screw with them. So to those of you who think the government tapped into your cerebrum, (medulla with the last person I dealt with), if you were that valuable, they'd just pay you to be on their team. And for those of you whose religions brainwashed you into thinking Satan is after you, you should know that the Bible says that God created Satan. (Isaiah 45:7 - "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.) Since God only does good things, there must be good in the creation of Satan, so quit worrying about him. I sincerely hope that I am really stupid so that you aren't crazy.
