Did you ever dream of ATS?

You can check out any time you like

But you can never leave ...

You are an atsaholic. You need to go to ATS Anonymous. Dry out a little for your own good.

What doesn't kill you only makes you very sick.

When you have single threads you've spent 5 weeks round the clock constructing, I'm sure. Well not really really sure, as we tend to forget all our dreams, but it would be a safe bet.

No....i'm crazy...but not quite that crazy yet thank #.

I've woken up a few times totally hangover, and hoped the drunken rant I typed the night before was just a dream.

... does that count?

but.. were they just a dream? or did you had to hurry and edit the post only to realize it has gone beyond the time limit?

a reply to: halfoldman

That is our premise at the MetaCafe. We are pawns in a system and want to stretch out.

I've never dreamt about ATS, but I used to have an issue with f*cebook some years back.

The first and last thing I'd do each day was to check for any updates on pages and groups I was administering, it was simply a tool to be used, and it served its purpose brilliantly, but I have to admit that it did have me hooked for quite sometime.

For a long period, all I would see in my dreams was my f*cebook timeline scrolling past my eyes, full of nonsensical cr*p (not too different from the real thing in that regard).

It was honestly driving me insane; my body would get some rest but the mind never sleeps.

As it happens, I was successful in my mission, and I no longer need to use the platform. I'm still about, radio silent, ready to go again if certain individuals and Government departments try backtracking, but for the time being, it has served its purpose, and I'm sleeping a little better.

Yes actually. The toughest debate I had was against semperfortis. That puppy had me with a notepad next to my bed. I'd wake and put down what came to me while I slept. That tired me out. He's good.

Not yet but I don't remember most of the crap going through my head while I am asleep.

I don't recall if it had happened before. However it actually happened this afternoon when I woke up.

I don't remember the dream at all. But as soon as I woke up the first thing that came across my mind was:

"Why in the hell am I dreaming about ATS?"

Weird timing with this thread...

Freak out for me, I dreamt I had a child.
No, not like I was a woman and literally had it.
But in a cradle, it's on the floor.
I just knew it was mine.
And it was gorgeous!

Is it impossible?
A lot of funny stuff happened in the 1990's.

I was just getting used to the idea, and then I woke up.

Some wish-fulfillment dream, it cannot be?
Maybe I'd like to.

Nope. Not once. I hope nobody takes that poorly. Much of the time, I dream about much stranger things than ... us!

Why not? If you can afford to lol, just imagine if the baby comes out looking exactly like how you dreamed it to be :S

No one would ever believe you but you will always know there's something special about that kid

An occupation, well we have a Western and other ways of looking at "healers".

The spirits have called me.

I'm not sure anybody understands that.

I think it was 2016, when I first got AIDS.
This terrible throat infection.
Every time I swallow it feels like hell is descending on me.
The antibiotics don't help.
Now you must swallow that too, when you can't swallow.
Those doctors can't help you, go to the German doctor.
In such indescribable pain, he closes his door.
Can't eat, can't drink, can't swallow.

I had to type everything out - I couldn't talk.
He didn't know what to do.
Phoning a colleague, this man is suffering, what must I do with him ?

Thinking back, if it wasn't for the meds, where would you be now?

I'd be dead.

a reply to: halfoldman

I can't talk, but I can write.
Imagine somebody who can't write!

Turn, turn, turn ...
Turn to left, turn to the right
Flip, it hurts
Please help me.
Amazing how you can lose your entire will to live.
Didn't take long.
Such was AIDS.

I remember when ATS was a place for paranormal, aliens, diy, survival know how, lost civilizations, and self reflections.


ATS is now a political cesspool.

a reply to: EternalSolace

I can't say politically, just at one time my life was so painful, I still have nightmares, unfortunately.

But not anyone's fault.

But luckily today there are meds.

I did get better.

To me, just saying don't think HIV/AIDS is over.
It's a nightmare.
Yeah, and it's still going about.

Just a fact of life still - until we find a cure.
Just a virus, and a fact of life still.
I didn't mean "political left or right".
Just a physical reaction to pain.
Nobody's fault.

My own at worst.
Just nobody on the planet must be complacent about HIV - it's still out there!

Stay safe and get tested!
I was still lucky, I caught it in time
The majority of people don't even know they have it, and all of a sudden - it can be too late.

HIV - don't want to talk about it?
Too bad - I will.

Meanwhile ... at the university:

"Hi Martin, it's Linda.
I got a student here who needs an extension for his essay.

Now how should I describe him?

Blue eyes, cammo trousers - probably eats sauerkraut for breakfast.

That's right, the neo-Nazi.

Martin says that's fine".

Stereotype much?

Aufwiedershen!

I feel like i should ask further questions, but i don't know which ones... :S

I can't even say it was a dream.

It was far more uncanny.

But when I pitched for my training session, in the locker-room, my trainer says, today I've got a surprise for you.

I can already see it must be something sadistic, but hey I'm volunteering for this.

So I say, "I hope you don't keep me is suspense?"

And then the whole joke, how do you keep an idiot in suspense. I'll tell you just now. Or, as I said: "I'll tell you tomorrow".

And now it occurs to me, I had the exact same conversation in my mind, with a satire on the discourse between Krishna and Arjuna in the Bhagavad-Gita just 12 hours before in this thread: www.abovetopsecret.com...

Same words (almost exactly), but in a different context.
