Monday, 16-Apr-12 00:02:56 UTC from web-
@shutterfly BAM, what is upwards?
-
@shutterfly Hello! Welcome!!
-
@greydragon412 Thanks!
-
@joker Nothing much. What about you?
-
@foxgopher Hiya! Thanks!
-
@shutterfly Hello! Are you new?
-
@dlcentaur Hiya! Yes, I am.
-
@shutterfly Hows everypony treating you so far?
-
@shutterfly hello, new pony! i assume you joined today?
-
@foxgopher Amazing! Thanks for asking.
-
@praxis Hiya! Yes, yes I did.
-
@shutterfly then i offer my somewhat late welcome to this mystical magical place! enjoy your stay.
-
@shutterfly Awesome! Welcome to RDN ^-^
-
@praxis Thank you very much!
-
@dlcentaur Thanks a lot! :3
-
@shutterfly Awesome! This place is the best. May you have many good times.
-
@foxgopher Thanks!
-
@shutterfly What is your story my new friend?
-
@shutterfly yes! regale us with the story of how you ascended into bronyhood!
-
@foxgopher Story of becoming a brony or life story? :o
-
@shutterfly You are certainly very welcome!
-
@praxis Well, it was about a year ago when an acquaintance of mine said he liked MLP after I told him I liked Hello Kitty. So I decided to go home and give it and a try, and WAH LAH, I was in love.
-
@shutterfly Whichever!
-
@foxgopher The story of becoming a brony is as follows. It was about a year ago when an acquaintance of mine said he liked MLP after I told him I liked Hello Kitty. So I decided to go home and give it and a try, and WAH LAH, I was in love.
-
@foxgopher I'm not sure if you'd want me to go into my life story. haha
-
@shutterfly thats a cool story! (the sincere way, not the sarcastic internet meaning)
-
@shutterfly Very nice. Thats cool your friend showed you the best thing ever.
-
@shutterfly Maybe some other time.... Haha
-
@shutterfly im pretty sure my friends became brony's around the same time as i did but we didnt hang out much and one day i was like omg mlp is greeeeaaaaaaa and they were like yeah pretty much.
-
@foxgopher Yeah, he's a cool guy. We don't talk much though. Yeah, if you ever want to hear it (for some reason) just let me know.
-
@praxis Thanks. haha. But it's really just the basic story of how people become bronies.
-
@shutterfly well its always cool having real life brony friends
-
@shutterfly I just like to make conversation. :p
-
@praxis I've converted 8 people into bronies so far. All really good friends of mine. I'm working on 3 more at the moment.
-
well i cshould better get to sleep now, goodnight TO YOU ALL
-
@shutterfly Wow! I haven't converted even one, but that's because my friends are either preoccupied with liking other things or are Really REALLY stubborn xD
-
@foxgopher Perhaps we can talk tomorrow? I'm feeling tired and I'm going to attempt a WILD lucid dream tonight.
-
@shutterfly WILD? i dun know if i like the sound of that...
-
@dlcentaur Of the three I'm trying to convert, one is a semi-brony. He freaking loves Twilight Sparkle, but he is preoccupied with other anime. The other two are stubborn, but I know I can get them into the herd.
-
@wafers WILD = Wake Induced Lucid Dreaming, nothing like "Girls Gone Wild" xD
-
@shutterfly For sure. Let me know how that lucid dream goes. I've been trying to do that. Goodnight!
-
@shutterfly k good. as long as it's not ponies gone wild there will be no problems.
-
@foxgopher Goodnight! I look forward to talking to you tomorrow.
-
@shutterfly Best of luck with them :D
-
@shutterfly @foxgopher I would suggest NOT doing that. You'll enter a sleep "paraliziz", where you're fully awake, but dreaming. Then time will NOT pass superfast as with normal sleep, and if you have a nightmare, it'll be more realistic, more horrifying, and hard to wake up from. (during the paralyzing, you cannot move!)
-
@mintl Nooooo
-
@foxgopher is that pony asleep? Poor pony...
-
@mintl I think that pony will be fine. :)
-
@foxgopher sure. As long as that pony don't think of ponyormal act- #ohgodicantsleep!
-
@foxgopher The lucid dream was a fail last night.
-
@shutterfly Aw dang. I can't do them. I was hoping you got it so you could share secrets. :p Why didn't it go well you think?
-
@foxgopher i though you were being productive
-
@praxis the magic of technology allows me to use my phone to multi task. I get distracted easily..... I'm doing stuff though.
-
@foxgopher Jolly good!
-
@foxgopher It's because I just couldn't get comfortable for the longest time so I got on my side and went to sleep. I'm just gonna try again tonight. I've only had one lucid dream before and that was a lucid dream induced by a Reality Check.
-
@praxis Quite Quite. Hmm. Like a sir.
-
@shutterfly Huh. I might try tonight. We'll see.
-
@foxgopher I wish you the best of luck. You should start keeping dream journals. I hear it's best to start with the MILD or WBTB method first.
-
@shutterfly To google! Good luck to too.
-
@foxgopher Haha. I suggest reading reddit.com/r/luciddreaming also.
-
@shutterfly @deadhor5 @foxgopher though identyfying something as "off" or "weird " in a dream is difficult because the cognitive and critical thought driven sectors of our brains are inactive. so in the end it all just takes training.
-
@praxis sounds simple enough
-
@shutterfly Ohh, shiny link. Fanks!
-
@joker in theory yeah, but its actually alot of subconcious tweaking and control. though if you can pull it off you can have a mountain of infinite hamburgers and tacos.
-
@praxis or ponies?
-
@joker especially ponies.
-
@praxis Yeah I suppose. I'm sure it takes time to actually get the hang of even starting one.
-
@foxgopher yeah being aware in a dream is on par with being not being aware of your tongue when some one says "you are now aware of your tongue"
-
@praxis Yeah, that's what I did when I had my first lucid dream. I hear that the WILD method is the most effective and realistic method.
-
@foxgopher No problem at all. ^.^
-
@shutterfly WILD?
-
@praxis Wake-Induced Lucid Dreaming
-
@praxis Wake Induced Lucid Dreaming. Your mind stays awake while your body goes to sleep. I hear it's terribly scary and not for the squeamish.
-
@praxis Oh darn you. My tongue. So its like that huh?
-
@shutterfly Yay for friends! How did your day go?
-
@shutterfly @bitshift right silly me :P well i do it all the time anyway! onward!
-
@praxis As opposed to MILD (Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreaming) or LILD (Lucid-Induced Lucid Dreaming, where you naturally become lucid and then make efforts to maintain that lucid state).
-
@praxis That latter kind is the easiest when available, but obviously requires that you're already inclined toward becoming at least somewhat lucid.
-
@bitshift so it would seem!
-
@foxgopher Pretty good. Converted another friend into a brony and we've been singing "The Flim Flam Brothers" all day. Then I got home and played some WoW and listened to music. How about your day?
-
@praxis You do WILD's all of the time?
-
@shutterfly convert? something i have attempted before.... no use converting the haters, from my experience, unfortunately...
-
@shutterfly nah. i've yet to make an effort to lucid dream.
-
@shutterfly Work for forever then watched my brother win his volleyball game and now I'm trying to be productive, which isn't going well.
-
@getacutiemark I find it rather fun trying to convert people. But some people are just impossible to convert because their minds are just too closed. Also, are you aware of reddit.com/r/getyourcutiemark ?
-
@praxis Oh, I see. I've always been interested in lucid dreaming but only recently have I actually tried it. (because ponies.)
-
@foxgopher Productive? That isn't how you spell procrastinate. LoL is calling you.
-
@shutterfly League of Legends?
-
@shutterfly Why? Why would you do that? Q.Q Do you play?
-
@praxis Eeyup. It's a fun game.
-
@foxgopher @shutterfly totally! i picked it up when i wanted a break from how intense Starcraft 2 is.
-
@praxis @shutterfly We must play!
-
@foxgopher lol im not very good :P
-
@foxgopher xD I play once in a blue moon.
-
@praxis Speaking of Starcraft 2, I wore my Starcraft 2 shirt today.
-
@shutterfly nice! i wear my zerg necklace everyday lol
-
@foxgopher My screen name on there is Salibur. Won't play tonight though.
-

-

-
@shutterfly goodnight!
-
@praxis I was number one in diamond once..... My friend carried me to the top of 2v2.
-
