- Could you role-play a dismembered corpse?
-Richard Fichera (c42rf3@cc.dso.hac.com)
- Would you let something like an axe through your head limit your social
life?
- How would you react if your SO tried to eat your soul?
(if this has already happened then skip this question)
- Have you ever had the feeling that you were being watched? that your
every move was being followed? That someone was just about to gra...
STOP THAT! (actually say this to whoever is being questioned but direct
the stop that behind them ^_^ loads of fun.)
-Toussaint (rbeck@pike.usd.edu)
- Do you ever see people/things that aren't really there?
- Do they ever speak to you?
- Do they ever come after you, with blades wrapped in leather straps, held by
pulsating, skinless hands?
- When you have too much caffeine does everything seem to melt into a city of
fire? City of crazy people? Really big forest? A small boarding house
with thirty rooms and only one community bathroom?
- How do you feel about chainsaws? Do they speak with the voice of your
mother when you turn the engine on?
- Do you ever feel like everyone is out to get you, and the only friend you
have is your dog?
- Have you ever had a dog explode? Attack you while demonically possessed?
Scream Yiddish incantations while you try to sleep?
- Whenever you walk past a prison do you see "other things" and hear strange
sounds? Past a school? Past a MacDonalds? Past your parents' bedroom?
- Does everything seem like a huge conspiracy, where your every move is
controlled by an external force, but you're sure it's not a Vampire,
Werewolf, Mage, Wraith or Changeling (and sometimes Mummy) doing it?
- Tell me about your mother, do you have fantasies? If so, do they involve
pentacles and screaming in Latin? If not, please describe in detail.
- Same for your father.
- And the rest of your family.
- And neighbors.
- And anyone else you've ever met, or would like to.
- Do you often find yourself deciphering cryptic messages in
the list of ingrediants on a cereal box?
- Is there something about the moon, that makes you.... hunger?
- If you had to choose between having the flesh peeled off of
your body, layer by layer, until nothing was left but bone as you
experienced every moment of it, OR giving birth to cactus/wolverine
hybrid (your gender does not matter), WHICH would you pick?
- When engaging in sex, do you start seeing yourself as a
divine being, with infinte possibilities in this illusionary world you
live in? Would you like to? (offer limited to females only)
- Does the idea of being hunted through the depths of eternity
by creatures made of flesh, leather, plastic, and steel sound appealing
to you?
- Do you look at New Age Pagans and laugh because they "don't
know of the horrors they try to deal with"?
- Do you ever get the feeling that you've got more than one
person living inside your body? Also, does said "other person" likes
to rip his way out of your body, murder everyone close to you, and then
plant evidence making you seem to be the killer?
- When you were in elementary school gym class, did it ever
seem as if all the other students were really fat bloated corpses, and
your gym teacher was a dark fiend who thrived off of the misery of children?
Did you feel this way in any classes?
- Did schools in general seem to be little more than death
camps, filled with corpses as far as the eye could see?
- When watching a scary film, do you find yourself three days
in the future or past, with no recollection of what film you were watching?
- Do you still wet the bed at night rather than walk through
your dark, scary house to get to the bathroom?
- When you look out of the corner of your eye and see a dark
shape running, do others see it with you?
- Do any of your possessions scream "WORSHIP ME!!! WORSHIP
ME!!!" besides your computer or television?
- What kind of offerings do you give to such things you own?
- Would you rather be killed by an indescribable monster who's
facial hair alone drives you insane OR a big creature covered in chrome
plated exhaust pipes and weilding a dozen meat cleavers?
- Have you ever been possessed, subjected to Satanic rituals,
chased through a sewer full of corpses, or heard the phrase "rodents,
rodents, rodents" when the "Phantom of the Opera" soundtrack is played
backwards?
-D.J. (sbabb@comp.uark.edu)
- Ever have an imaginary friend? Did the dog growl at him? Did he
ever speak to you in Greek? Did he ever kill anything/one?
- Do your parents still have any of your childhood drawings? Why not?
Explain in detail, with diagrams if necesary.
-Dan T Williamson (dtw@IDM.COM)
- Ever run into someone on the street that knew your name and
everything about you, and when you looked closer, looked
exactly like you?
- Have you or any family member ever went out for
smokes/pizza/road-beers, just across the street and ended up on
the other side of town? The state? The country? A different
continent entirely?
- Is there a special room in your house which you feel needs to
be ritually cleansed? Did you employ someone to do so? Did
they die in the process?
- Are you now or have you ever been affiliated with a group which
uses the term `anthroprophagia' in any way, shape, or form, or
do you or anyone you know know the meaning of the term?
- If you wish to excite a lover, sexually, do you need any kind
of rare incinses, oils or alkaloids found in the mid-east?
- Have you ever hand-crafted a device or weapon and incorporated
bits of organic tissue? While it was still alive? While it
was still attached? Where the device/weapon was attached to a
living being?
- When/if you masturbate, do/would you use one hand, two hands, a
blender, a tentacle, someone else's (severed) hand, a Hand of
Glory, and/or all of the above?
-Alexander Williams (thantos@RUNIC.MIND.ORG)
- Have you been mistaken as a lictor by your own doppelganger?
It happened to me, and scary it was too. I thought this stranger who
looked and dressed very similar to me was going to beat the sh*t out of me.
But I guess he was even more frightened of me.
-William (Not a lictor, honest) Hoad (100702.2162@COMPUSERVE.COM)
