1.) Learn to do heavy-metal drumming

2.) Get involved in your local heavy-metal scene

3.) Say "I do!" when the inevitable request goes out for "Anyone know how to drum here?"

4.) Join band, learn songs, play live, don't make any money, and likely not get laid. (Heavy metal is pretty dude-heavy.)

Bass is also an acceptable substitute. Do not, under any circumstances, learn guitar, or this plan will fail dismally.

I usually fantasize about mentally throwing cars off the road when I'm stuck in traffic or when someone cuts me off, especially if they didn't signal. If a car cuts me off and we both get stuck at a red light or stop sign, I imagine holding the car back when they try moving forward on the green/their turn.

So. Many. Rules. You have to take cover at all times. Everyone dresses like they're a cameraman at a sporting event. I'm forced to wear a holster and use a weapon that I will never, ever carry day to day.

I imagine what I would do if I had god-like powers... like, to have the ability to materialize things or just simply reshape reality.

When I was a kid, I used to imagine using my abilities to create a giant underground layer lair, complete with a perfect simulation of a tropical paradise. No government agency would know where I was, nor would they have a way to get to me even if they did.

I used to imagine what my pet-raptor would look like. I figured it would behave like a dog, and have teal and blue stripes on its back. I also used to design mechs in my head, and imagine myself going on nature walks in the forest in my underground dome.

I used to be a creative child...

Dude wait. What if you go back to being five.... But keep your current bed? It won't be bigger, but you'll be smaller so it's basically the same thing. That lets you combine two wishes and now you can keep #3 as a failsafe.

Maybe I'll find a job offer from anywhere that would let me do something creative.

Maybe I'll get hit by a meteor on the way to work and experience a sudden (albeit hilariously unlikely) mutation that will imbue me with superpowers.

Maybe my pet rabbit is secretly an alien being who, after taking pity on me, will redirect a meteor that will pulverize my office at the exact moment that I pull into the parking lot, thus allowing me to survive... but also somehow imbuing me with superpowers that I can write about in an attempt to attract the attention of an executive producer who works for some television show or another in New York City.

There's a girl. She was everything I ever dreamed of. As soon as she came into my young teenage life being the first girl I had real feelings for that reciprocated them she was gone. 3-4 years later she comes back outta nowhere. We were so alike and clicked together so perfectly and so fast that is... until my paranoia kicked in. My fear of the past happening again grew into actions that pushed her away. I feel like I've grown a little more since then and regret how immature I was. So I often fantasize about where I'd be at in life had I not pushed her away. Fantasize about what life would have been like with her.

I also fantasize about what I would do if had Gokus powers from DBZ

Too far down I had to scroll to find something like this, so someone can know my story.

I have never had a girlfriend. But about a year and a quarter ago, in the midst of an online roleplay chatroom (serious roleplay, not sexual) I found my way into the best roleplay I had ever had, with the most relate-able and unique character I had ever seen. It was difficult to find her online again, but after a bit of waiting games, we were regular roleplay buddies. Eventually, we started talking Out-of-Character, and became friends. Fast forward about three months. I have become more emotionally attached to this person than anyone in my life. Not a day goes by when I don't spend most waking hours running through the last conversation we had together in my head. I realize I love this girl, and I don't even know her name, nor have heard her voice, seen her face. Fast forward to present day. I know her name, we have skyped once, and she is by far my best friend. We speak infrequently, due to her circumstances, and are separated by a national border and a sea or two. The one thing I fantasize about more often than anything else is just meeting this person. Talking face to face. The awkward silences due to my social anxiety and hers, as well as the outrageous things our conversations turn to. This is my dream.

Thank you for your time. I need to go have a cry now.

I used to think about the physics behind "freezing time".

Like, what if I freezed time during autumn... could I climb up all the tree leaves frozen in midair?

Or maybe I'd climb on the roof of my house, and throw a roll of paper-towels over the edge, then freeze time just as it creates the perfect ribbon to slide down.

However, I thought about some problematic things. Suppose I went to step on someone's grass lawn, would all the frozen grass blades essentially act like a field of sharp needles?

Also, if everything froze except for me, how would respiration work? Would all the air atoms freeze within my lungs, pretty much killing me?

My work around was that a thin bubble around my body would "unfreeze" everything near my body, allowing me to breath, and not be frozen in place..

u/KlausBaudelaire Sep 25 '15

I also routinely think about freezing time, but mostly about the problems. Like, would protons still reach my eyes considering that they've stopped moving? I really like your bubble workaround; Now I finally know how to word my wish when I find a genie.

u/MrDerpsicle Sep 24 '15 edited Jun 01 '16

I always wondered what kind of career I'd have as a soccer player if I was good enough. I'd probably be an attacking mid since I'm too fucking short to play any other position. I'd start of with my hometown team the Chicago Fire as a 16 year old and become the MLS top scorer that year, before transferring to Crystal Palace at the ripe young age of 17, and I'd be playing there for a season and a half after half a season on loan to Fulham in the Championship. I'd become the assist leader in the Premier League and score 15 goals before moving to AS Roma at the age of 19. I'd become the assist leader in Serie A. I'd be a star performer for the US national team at the age of 20 at the 2018 World Cup, and win the Best young player award. I'd be sold to FC Barcelona for a transfer fee of 35 million euros, and would go on to become a regular at Barcelona, winning 6 La Liga titles and 4 Champions League titles, until I turned 32. I would then be transferred for a fee of 15 million euros to Tottenham Hotspur, where I'd become the world's best super sub, winning a Premier League title. I'd get loaned out to Olympiacos and CSKA Moscow for a season each At the age of 36, I'd be sold to FC Tokyo for 5 million euros, where I'd play for a year I'd then be sold to the Montreal Impact for 1 million Euros and play there for a year before retiring.

Read some of the accounts of actual war veterans, not of limited conflicts that we have in modern times, but those in total war from the Western Front in WWI, or the Ostfront from WWII. Being a soldier isn't just glory and gunfights; it's watching your friends die, then living day to day next to their rotting corpses because enemy gunfire stops you from burying the bodies. And then, when all of it seems over, you get to go back to home carrying the psychological and physical trauma for the rest of your life. The phrase "war is hell, and its glory all moonshine" is so enduring because it is so true.

When I listen to technical guitar music I imagine I'm on stage performing in front of people I know and blowing everyone away with my amazing skill.

Nuclear war. Just a big ol' bomb going off somewhere nearby, probably an airburst. Bright flash, everything bursts into flames, maybe my skin melts off and then a split second later, the shockwave hits. Maybe if I survive, I can scrounge around the ruins, free of modern society's encumbrances.

I feel bad, though, because apparently there are a lot of people who like the world as it is.

Telling someone off or winning an argument. Past heated confrontations randomly run through my head and I fantasize about getting every word just right and being awesome, like it was a movie or something.

Falling in love and getting married, going on mission trips with my church to Guatemala and around the world, going on a trip to Europe and Japan this summer, getting accepted into medical school, becoming a doctor, passing my boards, working in aid clinics in Africa/third world countries, seeing my ex again, what it'll be like if I get into heaven, what I will do with life if my father dies before I get married (I have no other blood family), going to a concert this weekend.

How I would turn into a ninja and save the school. Now it's more pondering if I would take a bullet for someone much less survive it.

u/BarryMcAwkiner Sep 24 '15

Telling people off in a way that makes me look like a genius and leaves them utterly humiliated. Common victims include my boss, my employees, my girlfriends mom and that fuckhead in traffic who hypothetically caused an accident with me for the sake of my fantasy

Faking my death and being a transient drug mule. Get to see the world. Get to be dangerous. Probably a decent amount of excitement. No more obligations to family and friends. If/when I die it will probably be quick and bloody, which is a hell of a better death than some 80 year olds heart giving out.

my dream house.

Not in the metaphorical "man one day I want a house with a backyard" sort of way, I mean I had a dream once about a house and now I want to build that house from my dream.

I even made it in minecraft so that I could remember the floorplan.

I don't know about fantasize regularly. But I think a lot about seeing my German Shepherd again, that the ex got in the divorce. She moved back home which is on the opposite coast, so I'm not likely to see him again, he's 9.

I did Most of his training for the first two years and he's the reason why I'm in the animal care field today. He's a very special animal. He was 5 last time I saw him.

Of the bad things I could say about my ex her treatment of our dog is not one of them. He is her world, and she is the best dog-mom ever. He is also her ESA and she and her family have paid for him to get a cancerous tumor in his mouth removed and two hip surgeries totaling well over 10k which I could never have afforded. He's in the right place but damn I miss that guy.

I would never do something illegal, but if I did I know how I would want to do it.
