The Weird THings of the World

Wow that was weird...a few nights ago this hypno-therapist came and put on a show for us. A hypno-therapist is someone who hypnotizes people and plants aversions to things like smoking in them...that way it is easier for them to break the habits...This guy was awesome...he hypnotized like 30 people and put on a show with them...

First he sorted the group so that he had the best "subjects" that part was cool and I was actually one of the good subjects although I didn't want to go up there and be hypnotized...you can't do anything against your morals while you are hypnotized but it does loosen them so you do more that you would normally be scared to do...and are more flamboyant...plus you don't remember any of it when you wake up so I didn't like it. It was fun to watch though...his tests were all imagining...apparently good "subjects" do things when they imagine circumstances strongly like he told me to clasp all of my fingers and hold up the pointers then he had me look between them and try to hold them apart while imagining that a rubber band was pulling them together and it didn't work my fingers snapped together like there was a real rubber band and I couldn't hold them apart...then he had us hold out our arms and imagine that a balloon tugged upwards on one while the other had a heavy weight...and the balloon arm lifted up on its own while the weight arm dropped...it was cool and freaky seeing my body do things from imagination...

so then he took the best people and had them do all this crazy stuff...like he hypnotized them and then told them to be celebrities and a crowd with different people having different roles...it was so funny the people acted like stars and the crowd like a real crowd...while they were hypnotized they believed whatever he told them...3 people in the audience became hypnotized while he was speaking and he called them down to the stage and they came...and he told them all these crazy things like one guy he told to start dancing whenever this type of music came on and he did...and it was funny because the guy didn't remember being told to dance so he'd be like..."dude what are you doing? we're trying to put on a show here!" and the guy wouldn't remember why he randomly got up to dance...the celebs were funny too they actually tried to dance and sing too and as they were waking up he gave them post commands like one girl he told to straighten the chairs when she woke up...the other to scatter them and this one guy to stand up on his chair and yell: "I'm sexy!" and this other guy to pretend he was James Bond and when his theme song started playing to sneak to the back wall and they all did it...it was so funny and kindof weird too...but the guy was nice and from what I could see of his face he was just using it to amuse us...I'm sure it could be used to do bad things too though...better yet when all the people woke up they didn't remember a thing of all the crazy stuff they had done...Oh boy you'd have to be there but it was hilarious...we laughed so much that he told his subjects that whenever we clapped or they heard laughter or noise instead of him that it was just going to make them more relaxed that way we could laugh all we wanted and it didn't even phase the people...

I'm curious what you said...it WAS a weird show, that's why I didn't want to be one of the subjects...because I didn't understand how it worked. It was a bit scary actually... hmmm
