"i envy those who are perceptual (or atleast imaginative) enough to catch reoccuring themes throughout there life."

fuck, are you kidding me?
not to be tedious or pretentious or whatever, but that's how the band's demo title came out, and you're dragging me to talk about it!!!

it's all about apophenia, or THE EXPERIENCE OF SEEING PATTERNS AND CONNECTIONS...

1000 coincidences every fucking day...

this is really a cool thread.

i'm some kinda numerologist myself. numbers are weird things. for example the demo lasts 18' 11'' ... what can you do with those numbers?

numerology is all about accepting the numbers and calculations you want to use to prove a pattern, and rejecting the ones that dont....

actually it's fairly simple, you basically go where your mind drains you...
nothing else, imho.

but it's funny how you keep on noticing the very same things sometimes... almost like this whole place revolves around yourself...

oh and btw, sorry for the band... i'm not a pretentious cock.

much more of a revolting cock.

Exactly. You're not even going to conciously eliminate things that don't fit your pattern, you just won't notice them. The chances of a seemingly odd coincidence happening to someone are actually high. For example, you only need a group of 23 people gathered togther for there to be a 50/50 chance of two of them sharing the same birthday.

Nonetheless this is quite a good one. I'll try and make it brief as possible (and I appologise for the obscure namedropping):

So, in March me and some friends went to Poland because my housemate was showing his film around the country and as part of it he put on a gig in Krakow with Cassetteboy and DJ Rubbish (he used Cassetteboys music in the film) and their manager Paul. We all had a good time and all that and came back. Some months later this DJ guy (whose name I forget) who is on Matthew Herberts label played here in Cardiff. My other housemate (who didn't go to Poland) went to see him, got off his tits on MDMA and invited him back to our house. Anyway, my housemate who made the film was talking to this guy, randomly asked him if he knew Cassetteboy et al and said he did and that HE ACTUALLY LIVED WITH THEIR MANAGER! Odd.

I get regular synchronicity thoughts when dealing with people.It should be enough to make me a very superstitious person but i kind of ignore the whole thing and let it flow.I'm gay,by the way.
