Going Mental

about before

My reason for that poem of mine, A Foolish Sage, is because I'm often told "just be yourself"...  yet, to be myself...  I must be another.  I am a born actor.  Not that I've ever been on stage(with the exception of 2 High School productions), but because I see my entire life as a Book, a Play, or - most often - a Game.

I see things in a way that disconnect me from reality while at the same time being tethered to it.  Imagine that as you play a game, your character comes across another player...  who has no IP address, no Console, and no connection to the "real" world.  Yet they are making choices that no AI or NPC could possibly make, acting like no AI or NPC could possibly act... and there is only one of them in existence across millions of copies of games.

That's basically me.  Except I know my life is a game.  So I use cheat codes.  I see things before they happen, but not because I'm psychic...  because I read the patterns that exist in everything.  Perfect strategy?  Impossible inventions?  Unshakable theories(both proven and not)?  Unsolved cases?  None of these things apply to me.

Einstein once said that light speed travel is impossible because the friction caused my such high speed movement would turn whatever travels at that speed to pure energy...  Yet I have blueprints in my head for a spaceship hull capable of light speed travel.

I have mental blueprints for a completely self-run generator that requires zero fuel.

And for those SAO and Overlord fans out there?  I know how to make a VR system where if you were to go into an exact copy of the "real" world, you would be unable to differentiate between the two.  You could see, hear, touch, smell, and taste everything the same as if you had done it IRL.

And many, many more.

Few of these are cheap to make, however, nor do I have all of the required skills to make them myelf; a few of which are highly advanced skillsets that require decades of training.

...

I'm rambling.  Back to the original point, I made that poem to say that one's life is only what one makes of it.  And for me, life is a game that I play because I'm bored and have nothing better to do.  I'm simply waiting for the plot to get to the exciting part.

Now...

Who wants to play a game?
