HYPNOSIS

dle_hypnotist.gif

Hypnosis is that thing where you make people fall asleep (but not really).
And then they do whatever you ask (but not really).

Regardless, I've always been intrigued by the idea and this summer I want to follow through with learning to hypnotize people.

Has anyone here ever been hypnotized or hypnotized others?
Do you have any suggestions as to how one might go about hypnotic training?

Alternately we could just use this thread for fart jokes

    I was hypnotized to stop from biting my fingernails when I was younger.

    It works, except the suggestion for me to stop biting my fingernails is to think about biting my fingernails which is usually the last thing on my mind when I do so.

    I'd like to learn to do some of the self-hypnosis stuff because man I felt super fucking well-rested following the session.

    the trick is to yell "HEY CHECK OUT MY HUGE DICK" when you start. It'll boost your confidence and give you something else to worry about besides the pressure of peeing.

    I don't know why, I just felt the need to say that.

    Usually don't have any trouble peeing at the urinal, unless its one of those "movies starting, just in case" kinda pees, or if the urinal extends way far out without a buffer wall.

    I can't pee at a urinal if someone is waiting in line behind me.

    Then you need to awkwardly pretend you did pee so you don't walk away looking like a douchebag who got stage fright.

    unless i'm drunk. in which case i head to the urinals and engage in conversation with those around me.

    You should talk to Bishop, the dishwasher. He can probably help you with that.

    Your fuckin' family's dug into the Southie projects like ticks. You, however, grew up on the North Shore, huh? Well, la-di-fuckin'-da. You were kind of a double kid, I bet, right? Huh? One kid with your old man, one kid with your mother. You're upper-middle class during the weeks, then you're droppin' your "R"s and you're hangin' in the big, bad Southie projects with your daddy on the weekends. I got that right?

    hypnosis is really not like you see in tv or films

    basically people do what the hypnotist says, but they don't do things they wouldn't want to do ordinarily

    you and me both man. Its just plain cheating at life. If I ever end up being near one of these guys I'll probably either run away as fast as I can, or just curl up in a ball and cry.

    How has that buffer wall not become a standard thing?

    and then it all ends, with the final memory, which completes you, but also ends you
    without it, there is no completion, bit with it, everything ends
