Chocopyro's "Ask me stuff" bandwagon thread

@ahuman Okay, there are a lot to sift through, and I don't know if you mean cool as in "Something out of an action movie", cool as in something straight out of a horror movie, or cool as in "Saw something really awesome that hardly anyone has ever had a chance to experience." I watch a lot of paranormal reddit post readings that really blow anything I've experienced out of the water, and a lot of my experiences don't actually lead anywhere. They're mundane, with a lot of build up, but anti-climatic when it pans out. Take the demon we call Mayhem for example. So I got into psionics in high school when a friend who's family kinda had a background in that sort of stuff introduced it to a few fellow band members (One of which was my twin brother) who then introduced me into the group. That's right, we weren't the goth kids, or the wicca coven on campus. (Though our two groups did get along, since we kinda dealt with a lot of the same crap.) Five band geeks (Two being in percussion, so naturally they were more into punk rock) and yes, me who was kinda your stereotypical reclusive angsty anarchist skater kid who was also a huge nerd obsessed with anime. I had no idea what I wanted to be in those days. None of us really fit the stereotypical label of "Spiritual practitioner." But then there was this one kid that Lunchbox (What we call the kid who was mentoring us) brought in that kinda fit the label to a T. His name was Leon. Now the thing about Leon was, you could sum him up in two images. Body type, voice type, and facial structure: https://pics.esmemes.com/you-will-never-understand-the-propain-go-though-edgelord-51605108.png Fashion sense and interests: https://i.redd.it/v32cdps3yeqy.png In short, an edgy tall fat otaku edge lord who like most St. Mary's students ended up an atheist. (I never understood what it was with that catholic school, but it produces atheists like a factory. XD) In short, he fit in with us in high school. Just another weirdo who Lunchbox felt had an affinity for this sort of thing. So for the longest time, Leon and I were the noobs. But there was something in Leon. It wasn't particularly powerful, but it had a strong hold in him. One day I was a little late to the training session, and it was just Leon, Lunchbox, and one of the percussion kids, Chancy. And the two of them were really freakin close to Leon, to the point where from behind, it looked like they were making out. I of course cracked an off-color joke, since it was pre smartphone era, and I didn't actually know many LGBT people yet. But while Chancy laughed, Lunchbox brushed it aside and was like, "Dude, come here. You gotta see this." So when I approach, Leons starts talking about something, I don't remember what exactly, and Lunchbox says something to intentionally piss him off, earning a sharp glare from the guy. Lunchbox then asks "Did you see it?" I shrug, as I finally make my way up, and I'm just kinda like "What are we looking at?" "The Eyes. Look at his pupils." Leon starts talking again, mildly annoyed. Then Lunchbox lightly slaps his cheek. There was that death glare again. Only this time, I did see something change in his eye. I have to be honest, if not for this one event, I coulda probably convinced myself that anything I said heard, or felt when practicing psionics was all in my head. But that's only because when I wasn't quite sure if what I saw was real, Lunchbox did it again. And again, and again a third time. Giving my mind plenty of chances to process, analyze, and and catalogue exactly what I was seeing into my memory. Which is more than what most cryptid witnesses get. So you can't use the whole "Well, it must have been a trick of the lighting." It wasn't, and Its one of the few things I can speak with authority on. Every time Leon would get irritated, there would be a brief moment when his pupils would turn slitted like a reptiles, then sink back to a round shape. Take this pic and imagine it in reverse and sped it up to 1.5x speed. That's literally what his pupil was doing. https://25.media.tumblr.com/098a44e48c4cd3270ff616523b17777e/tumblr_mrp0jcdtFf1r15uhwo1_400.gif I asked why his eyes were doing that, and according to Lunchbox, there was a demon inside of him. Not a particularly powerful one, but one that had been in him for a long time. I kinda don't want to get into the whole story of Mayhem, because its kinda a stupid subject, that kinda evolved into quite a bit of drama before we finally convinced him to get rid of it, and its like weeding someone off a drug, where they have all those secret stashes, or a person off an abusive relationship, where they still end up seeing the person on the side. It just dragged on and on, and really got annoying. But those eyes are probably the most physical manifestation I ever witnessed in my life. Now I know what you conspiracy theorists are saying. Reptilians confirmed. And maybe. They exist as spiritual entities from our experience. But there was no agenda here. No shadowy cabal, no manipulation of events to guide the hands of fate. Mayhem was just an entity that wanted to gorge itself on physical pleasures (mostly literal food), and Leon was just the kinda guy who low key deluded himself into thinking he was getting more out of an exchange than he actually is. Both were dumb as a bag of rocks and powerless to control the other, and it was holding Leon back as a result. But that eye morph thing was the coolest paranormal thing I'd ever seen. Most of the physical stuff are only partially manifested to where I'm not really seeing them with my physical eyes, but I kinda am at the same time. This was clear as day though in literal broad daylight, and ultimately what led me to take all this stuff more seriously.

@kuharido Are we talking a vendetta dual to the death, or a "This dude's like my idol, and I really wanna see him in action up close" duel?

I'm here to consult the resident Ohio native. Maumee, OH. How to pronounce? Is it seriously "Mah-mee"... mommy? LOL

I know this is nothing to do with the previous conversations but are any of you able to add what conventions you have been to on your profile? Its not working for me at all

MO is glitchy on the best of days, so you're not the only person. I can't find half the conventions I attended and it's a gamble to make the site actually add them to the profile. In other words that's how it be on a ghetto site! @hetm

@wei_ying To give Putin a kick in the nuts. No nut november, mothafuckas. https://media.tenor.com/9FNa_TxMChUAAAAM/deal-with-it-barack-obama.gif

I just realized that I have some catching up to do. @kameiya It really depends on the type of boredom it is. https://i.ani.me/0338/5316/screenshot_20220912-185321-651_2.png @verucassault That's around Lima, right? If I recall, the locals do pronounce it 'Mommy', yes. It's derived from a Native American name as most rivers in Ohio are. Like Hock-hocking, Olentangy, or well... The Ohio river
