    This kind of thing is all that does be going on in my head in meetings. I imagine the whole meeting room breaking out into dance.

    Thankfully I do not get taken to meetings often.

    Sometimes I could be having a very cordial conversation with a very pleasant person, just passing the time of day and suddenly a though will come into my head as to what reaction I would receive if I just spat a big loogie in their face

    Or if I just punched them in their nose really hard what would be the repercussions ? ? ?

    All the time OP. To make matters worse, I have some damage to my frontal lobe, so I have very poor impulse control.

    To amuse myself, I often have idle thoughts like: "what's the worst thing I could possibly do right now?" It's usually just harmless stuff like licking a bald man's head on the bus, or shouting "cunt" at mass.

    Although the last time I had to get a tooth filled, I had a sudden urge to bite down hard on the drill. I was a bit worried that I might actually do it. That wasn't nice.

    A lot of the time I just want to wallop people really hard across the head with a huge salmon. Sometimes I start chuckling thinking about doing really inappropriate things mid conversation with people. When I'm drunk, I just tend to do them. (Not salmon, there's never one handy!)

    It's when you stop thinking they're strange it's when you'll be in trouble. :P

    at school whenever a teacher would piss me off I used to fantasise about putting them in a WWE style submission move and refuse to let go until they tap out, leaving them in a crumpled heap on the ground :)

    Whenever I'm doing 120 on the motorway, I always get the urge to yank the handbrake to see what would happen.

    Sometimes if I'm working on a rooftop or visiting somewhere like the cliffs of moher I'd get notions of taking a running jump over the side. I used to be terrified of heights but not so bad anymore so I kinda think its the ultimate progression of getting past the fear. Sh1t outcome tho :)

    I could be the new messiah

    I try to blink in sync with a vehicle's indicator lights so every time I open my eyes it's like the lights are either off / constantly on, can also be done to zebra crossing lights.

    When I'm in a supermarket like Dunnes I suddenly get the thought of what it would be like to whip out a gun and shoot the place up / hold people hostage.

    If I'm in the post office / bank I'll scope out all the CCTV and plan my heist while I'm waiting.

    Waiting at the red light I just get the urge to walk out onto the road in front of cars, same at a train station where I get that sudden thought about jumping in front of the train as it's pulling in.

    Sometimes, I get the image in my head of me grabbing a knife and slicing this off.

    I get this as well when I'm up high, but it's only made my fear of heights worse!

    I sometimes drive my car on a main road doing say 60 mph and I think, if I pull over other side of road right now into oncoming truck we will find out if there's anything els .

    Seriously, stop driving and see a doctor. I don't want to share the road with you

    I once thought you got milk from a bull

    Sometimes when I'm in a car I feel like throwing my phone out the window.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭Jen Pigs Fly


    When driving I wonder what would happen if I took the keys out of the ignition when going at a speed.

    Always get that though when doing 100km on the n2 ... Should I be worried!
    Also think the same about the hand break and pressing the brake with my right foot (acellerator food) just to see what would happen.

    Obviously don't act on this but it preoccupies a good bit of my thoughts when driving on long journeys.

    Everyone dose from time to time but nowing where or what to do with them is the fine line between sanity and insanity

    Eh yea I know that, the thread is about strange thoughts/ideas not things you are going to do :confused:
    Never said I was going to it just things I wonder about while driving.

    8 hour Round drive every week makes for strange thoughts.
