firmobeisance: Well, I would be interested in hearing about your experieces in this area, if you want to relay any. I would not laugh at them (and I promise to cyber-spank anyone who does). But if you'd rather not, and just want to read and participate, of course that's fine, too.

I am honored to satisfy your interest. My experiences are modest and low level, enough to keep my own interest on the subject. I often guess who's calling before I look at my phone. I noticed fewer conflicting emotions when I moved from the city. I have good "luck" with animals and machinery, I can usually fix or operate what others can't and dogs especially seem to be drawn to me. I can often find things that people have lost. While it could be argued, said actually because I won't argue, that I just read body language, I pick up feelings from animals and people. How the heck I would "read" a horses posture is beyond me, but I suppose that is the point.
The one event that stands out recently however, was when I was driving down the highway late at night. Every time I looked toward an oncoming car, I felt washed with a new set of feelings and emotions, it was quite disconcerting, I felt my own identity might be replaced or something.
Am I psychic? I don't know. I should hope that if someone is, it is more focused than what I have. How does this affect my relationships? Well I always trust my feelings (when I know they are my own) so sometimes I will make decisions that are not supported by the facts. If I have a bad feeling about someone, it doesn't matter how obsequious they are being, I clear my space of them. Conversely, sometimes I am drawn to people for no apparent reason.

They're all respectable people trying to establish a framework for a common experience, aye?
They seem respectable from what I've read thus far, can they maintain their composure while responding to posts?

Do you not think that their first attempt at such an establishment would be to visit a psycologist, or do you think they're happier believing that the manifestation of God has a personal lust for them?
I am assuming you are talking about a psychologist. I have never heard of a psycologist and I didn't even use a dictionary, must have telekeneted the durn word.

Yes, you may have a common experience. No, it's not what you want it to be. This world doesn't bend itself to your will. (Please, if you think it does, take this oppurtunity to go flying off a very tall building before responding, just so you can prove me wrong.)
I didn't realize your views were that important to you. A psychologist will tell you that you are still a very valid person even if I don't agree with you.

Aww. Did I hurt baby's feelings? Heh.
Yeah, I'm not nice this morning. Some bastard pulled the fire alarm in the dorms, so I'm up early, I'm cranky, and I smell nothing but whiney, bitchy shit off of you. But, meh. I'm supposed to be nice to you, no matter how crazy you are, right?
I think the reason one maintains a civil and amicable tone while posting is to encourage others to believe what they have to say is respectable. If a person is just typing for whatever personal reason I don't think it is as important to be "nice".

This is a thread where people can discuss their thoughts on something. The response of mine you happen to be whining about was trying to tell another that you're going to believe your craziness, regardless, and that we should leave you alone. Which you then turn around and bitch at me about- which is exactly what I was trying to get for you. Seriously, I feel like I'm dealing with a five-year old. (Hence the utter lack of respect. I kind of doubt I'd have tolerated you, just two hours of sleep or not.)
You know, I don't even need to use my psychic powers to feel you feeling like you are dealing with a five year old. Must be frustrating that I am all they way over here on the other side of the monitor. Have you read the thread title? It says, "Are you psychic and how does that affect your relationships." Perhaps the OP was asking for an open discussion on psychic phenomenon, and you were sharp enough to interpret that. You know, any thread is where people can discuss their thoughts on something, hijacking is where people discuss whatever thoughts appeal to them irrespective of the title of the thread.

LOL, sure. Isn't it funny that only those who don't make the claims are concerned about understanding them, refining them and advancing the understanding of humanity? What a remarkable (well not so remarkable) coincidence?
There you go again with those sweeping generalizations, "those who don't make the claims", those who? Surely you can be a little more specific, since you have used the word "only" to exclude them from the rest of society, oh wait, it's the ones who do make the claims that need to be dealt with, huh.
Speaking of coincidences; around here, at least, a coincidence worth remarking on would be guessing who is calling on the phone several times in a row. Linking two poorly supported statements in a sentence doesn't even bear mentioning.
tsherpet: This is the last statement I will make regarding anything you post. I will not read your posts, I will scan past them for the information I came here to read. You have made your perspective abundantly clear "If psychic phenomenon is/are valid it is the responsibility of those who participate to prove it exists for the betterment of humanity and barring such proof it is not a valid phenomenon, " and have shown little evidence of modifying your perspective.
To continue supporting your position in no way answers the question posed as the title of the thread, nor does it provide insight to further the conversation.
Now I do have a definition from the dictionary:
TROLL
n. An individual who chronically trolls in sense 1; regularly posts specious arguments, flames or personal attacks to a newsgroup, discussion list, or in email for no other purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion. Trolls are recognizable by the fact that they have no real interest in learning about the topic at hand - they simply want to utter flame bait. Like the ugly creatures they are named after, they exhibit no redeeming characteristics, and as such, they are recognized as a lower form of life on the net, as in, “Oh, ignore him, he's just a troll.” Compare kook.
