whyyoudodat

Last night I began to write a post for this blog. I was a significant portion of the way through when the power shuts off. I immediately freak out and run upstairs (my room is in the basement) to see whats up. Only half of the house has no power which is strange, I get my father who is located in our RV positioned right outside the house. He comes inside resets the circuit which is located directly at the top of the stairs leading to the basement relatively in front of my room door. As I go back into my room I notice it is hot, I think nothing of it. I start up my computer to find all of my progress is gone and with no other option begin to redo the entry.

After about 10 minutes of work my power shuts off again. At this point I am extremely angry. I go get my father again who resets the circuit again and says I have too much plugged into my room and that I should unplug every thing because I am overloading the fuse (if I am using the wrong lingo forgive me). I unplug everything except for my computer, turn it on again and attempt once more to do the entry. I'm not even 5 minutes into writing it again when the power goes off again. I give up on the entry tell my dad to fix it and go to sleep.

The next day I learn that my father left my basement steam room (yeah I don't know why we have one we also have a sauna and jacuzzi for some reason) on and the door to it open for an hour which caused the steam to most likely cause the power in my room to go out. Such ridiculousness. So instead of what I had planned I shall give you a few ways to troll people.

One way to make people a little angry, but not too mad is by messing with things they do subconsciously. People are constantly doing things they are unaware of. If you make them aware of these things it can be really annoying. "The Game" really an extension of this you are in a constant state of not being aware of it until it is mentioned to you and then it annoys you until you can forget it (if you don't know what "The Game" is good for you).

One example of this would be if I walk up to you and say "you are now aware you are breathing". Just by reading this you are now thinking about your breathing and doing it consciously. Heres a few more:

You are now breathing manually. You are also blinking manually. You itch in one place. Your nose is blocking your vision. Your tongue is fitting awkwardly in your mouth. You now have Final Countdown stuck in your head. Thank you for playing the game and have a nice day.

Try to only use one at a time otherwise they forget about the others.

  1. Very interesting. Daxx, I think you should use your creative energies for something more worthy than being a troll. But I'm an adult and a teacher, so of course I'm going to say that.

    The first half of this was promising, even though it wasn't what you were originally planning to write. I would have liked to have seen you go somewhere with it. Your dad thought you were at fault, but then it turns out it was his fault. Any thoughts on that?

    And if you have a sauna, you should certainly be using it. A sauna should never go to waste, especially in January in Illinois!

  2. I was angry at the start of the story and simmered down as I wrote it. I realized more and more it was an accident as I recalled it. I can't really blame my father he was just trying to help. And yes I use the sauna regularly. My friends and I lately have been running out in the snow with no socks and shoes, touching a far away tree and running back to get into the sauna as quickly as possible. Also contests to see who can last the longest in it are pretty awesome.

  3. Good post and great story Daxx, maybe your dad was trolling you. Also I might use your excellent trolling advice to troll you, but as an expert in the field maybe it won't have any affect on you.
