Author Topic: [Game] Adapt your mindset / social role and be somebody else in this thread!  (Read 431 times)

[Note that this is not an excuse to flame people or to relentlessly troll, it's merely an experiment to see how people can think from different perspectives and approach their thoughts in diverse ways.]

Here's something I was thinking about just now.
Basically, the game is to alter your mindset. Change it to anything. If you're usually a loving and kind person, try being snobby or maybe sarcastic towards others or maybe even towards yourself or your thought. If you're laid back generally then be jealous, panicked or maybe conceited. Let your thoughts flow but take a different approach to recognizing and vocalizing them. It'll be interesting, be somebody totally new. If you want, post two of your different mindsets in the same post like below.

For example, this could all be in one post or it could be one poster to another:
Quote
Laid back thought - "There's an exam tomorrow but I'm sure that I'll pass. I don't need to study because we've been learning about this stuff all month."
Contrasting panicked thought -"If there's an exam first thing in the morning tomorrow, it's likely that you're going to fail due to lack of studying. If you haven't done any of that, you probably don't understand anything that you've been learning about all month."

Quote
1st Poster - Overly laid back thinker: I'm smart enough, I don't need school! It's pointless.

2nd Poster - Practical thinker: You could refine your education and skills. You could become somebody.

Quote
1st Poster - Panicker: I am going to die alone.

1st Poster - Different mindset: I am never going to be held back by marriage!

I'll lock this up if it doesn't go too well, but I'm curious to see what you guys will come up with.

Role: Class Bully beating up a nerd.
Nerd: "That doesn't make sense, you stupid fat monster. I need to pick up all my stuff now! *sniffle*
Bully: "What the forget did you just loving say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my classspecial education class in Navy SealsKarate, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-QuaedaNerds, and I have over 300 confirmed kills wedgies. I am trained in gorilla warfarepunching people and I’m the top sniperasshat in the entire bully forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the forget out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my loving words. You think you can get away with saying that stuff to me over the InternetSchool? Think again, forgeter. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USAhighschool and your IPhome is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re loving dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine CorpsMentally and Physically handicapped forces and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little stuff. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your loving tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will stuff fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re loving dead, kiddo."
