Today, as I drove, listening to an NPR segment on astronomy, my passenger asked, in an annoyed tone, if I would turn off the radio ( Read more... )

No .. trust your instincts. interrogobang August 23 2007, 07:37:17 UTC

Really sir, your instincts saved you. As Lovecraft teaches us.. there are some things man was not meant to know.. the details of a schizo's commentary... is one of them. The real underlying problem being.. their murmerings of a disturbed mind rarely make any sense to anyone else. Its a glossalia. A secret language of absolute self reference. Only a true fortune teller (rarer than a man with common sense) could really take anything home from the mutterings of a madman.

The rest of us just end up with bad dreams.

Aww, I like other people's glossalia. It's like any language - I may not know the vocabulary, but I can get a rough meaning from the relationships between the words and the tone. Owl lots sicko figget nibbler, shallow easter fried egg licker gadling foober. Get it?

1.. 234 11 8/9.
...... 34?

yeah. certain people's thoughts are denser than others.

I dare s/he who has the courage to ask the explanation of that hoary set of numeric symbols. Randolph Carter could take it. Recently ..finally read some "actual Lovecraft" as opposed to supplemental materials.

:smirk: If ya catch my meaning.

Wow. Do your passengers ever freak you out? Not that this is a very freaky story or anything, but it could've been worse.

jackstaxi December 16 2007, 13:37:10 UTC

Yes, sort of. I'm never freaked out, but occasionally creeped out. Like the smelly lady with bad teeth in durst sweatclothes, with giant pink Lee Press-On Nails. She spent the cab ride clipping them shorter the whole time.
