Strange Desires

[Candice Dionysus]

I figure with my own strange desire at the front of my mind constantly lately, I would make a thread specifically for discussing our strange desires.

I've been considering for some time now simply running away to Europe to live in a tent and travel the continent. It occurs to me that I would be able to get a lot of deep soul-searching done in this way that I cannot otherwise accomplish here in Canada, specifically in Barrie, but more specifically, living in a nice, warm house and constantly surrounded by drama.
It also occurs to me that, in this way, one can become very lonely, and that a companion may be in order, in order for me to retain my ability to communicate on any normal level socially. So in many ways, I'm on the look out for a companion who would not be adverse to packing up a few things and hopping on a plane with me to somewhere random in Europe with a few thousand dollars saved up, and roaming the Old World in a tent, probably mainly by train, and exploring everything there is to explore.
Of course, this isn't something I would suggest unless the person in question is at least half as crazy as I am. But in that regard, they would have to be crazy in many of the same ways, and be able to tolerate comfortable silence's, and my random bad moods in which I don't wish to speak to anyone, whether I like them or not. And my bouts of creativity which leave me doing nothing but working on art or writing for hours at a time. And it occurs to me that after a while we may be smelly due to not being able to bathe regularly. But as long as we know where our towels are, and we can find rivers, that shouldn't be too big a problem. Especially if we stick to the warmer parts of the Old World during winter months, and then the less warm parts in the summer months.

But enough about my strange desire. What are your strange desires, Palaver? What do you have the urge to do, but even you look at yourself and say "wow, that's just really weird..."?

Just know your partner well before hand, dear.

backpacking across europe sounds fun
just dont get bitten by a werewolf or get put up in a club where rich old folks pay to torture tourists
or any of the many other horror movie scenerios that pop into my head when I think the words "backpacking across europe"

I wanna ride my bicycle across the desert to california by myself someday

Having walked MUCH of that same desert myself I assure you: No, you do not want this.

I sometimes feel like climbing a a big mountain with a small bag on my back and never coming down again. Living like a hermit.

But it won't happen in the near future.

[Brice]

Good!

Spoiler:

I'd just have to come find you.

I like to go into a cornfield, after having told no one, and clear a small area near the center and sit. I do nothing but sit and shuck the corn ears I had downed. The feeling that no one can get to me is most comforting.

I like to climb up into the mountains and sit on a rock for the exact same sensation

[ICry4Oy]

I'd like to have hot steamy monkey sex with DJ Qualls.

Strange enuf?


p.s......it just hit me, he could play Sheemie!!!

I personally can't see anything strange about this desire, or about most of other posted here. They all seem perfectly normal to a middle-aged bear, who wants nothing but to be allowed to hibernate in peace.

[John_and_Yoko]

I think my strange desire is that I want to HAVE a strange desire....

Seriously, anything I could think of that I'd want to do but would be weird is so off the table that it's never even on my mind.

Except that--how strange is it that I would WANT to be that strange?

[Letti]

I would like to meet Bruce Willis and play minigolf with him.

[Míchéal]

I would like a cup of tea...


And the backpacking around Europe sounds fun.

[Candice Dionysus]

Nothing strange about a cup of tea. Hehe.

Thanks for posting, guys. I wasn't sure I'd get any replies.

Of course, the person I brought with me would have to be someone I knew well and was very comfortable with. Like my gay friend Minion. Him I know I can trust further than I can throw him (because I can throw him pretty far, he's pretty skinny, and also because I've known him for like 6 years now and lived with him).

Having spent extended periods of time outside I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I would be absolutely miserable.

As for my strange desires....hmmm...I think I've already discussed that in the Hot and Heavy thread.

[John_and_Yoko]

Actually I take it back. Wanting to dress as a member of the opposite sex probably counts as a strange desire....

Actually, what I saw as strange is the comforting, tactile sensation of shucking the corn.

I know that tactile sensation has been used in therapy for major mental issues. One day I decided to see if it would sooth minor issues. I saw that I had a willing subject in myself and tried it out. After a couple of ears of corn it does tend to sooth me to a greater degree than the isolation in and of itself.


And Jean... "middle-aged?" *cough cough*

[Jon]

I would like to meet Bruce Willis and play minigolf with him.

"Minigolf?"...is that what you kids are calling it now?

Hehe. I didn't think I'd get many replies in this thread. Glad to see you guys are still awesome.

When I say minigolf I mean minigolf.

[Candice Dionysus]

Bruce Willis and Minigolf sounds like fun. lol
