Daft Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 When I was younger, the Fonz (actually I think several Fonzs...) used to be my imaginary friend. I also had another imaginary friend who was a acrobat. I only saw him when I was in a car and as the car moved he'd somersault and stuff on the pavement keeping up with the car, hanging from lamp posts and stuff like that. Yes, I came up with parcour before it was real. Did you have, or still have (nutter), any imaginary friends?
Shino Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I never understood imaginary friends, do you actually see them?
Paj! Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 No. I loved playing with myself (...) when I was younger. I made up elaborate stories with my superhero figures. I still value solitude a lot. And enjoy my own company perfectly well.
Daft Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 I never understood imaginary friends, do you actually see them? I didn't. They were an active part of my thought process for me. Kind of like daydreaming.
dwarf Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Has your account been taken over because you're a thread-making machine right now. And no, I haven't had any imaginary friends, don't see how it works.
Pantsu Man! Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I sort of had one. There was a man in my head. He didn't have a face but he wore a suit. He just had a presence you could feel. Anyway he was in charge of my dreams. I could only 'see' him at night before going to sleep. I used to think my dreams were like a library full of videos stored on VHS tapes. He was the man who showed me good dreams if I asked of course. No... I'm not making it up. I actually remembered about him last night so it's funny that I come on here and see this thread.
Oxigen_Waste Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I never understood imaginary friends, do you actually see them? Me neither.
Chris the great Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 i had one called liquid licker. he was a teenage spider, imagine the book/cartoon spider stuck over some ones face. thats exactly it, it was so crap, the leggs were like on his "face" i dunno, i was messed up. any way, he used to drink washing up liquid and had a sister named rosie. that was my sisters input. mates sister had a pair called big dick and little dick. ive read a few of thouse articles aimed at women who never had kids, they claim if had a lot of invisivble friends and a child, your psychic. personaly i think it just shows people who belive they are psychic are lonely and a little crazy.
EEVILMURRAY Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 When I went for a shit I imagined the walls would give way and there would be a stadium of little people who'd I converse with. Good times.
RoadKill Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I talk to myself and have done for many many years treating myself as two distinct personalities so I can bounce ideas off myself and scold myself in the third person no 'imaginary friends' though
Daft Posted March 31, 2009 Author Posted March 31, 2009 When I went for a shit I imagined the walls would give way and there would be a stadium of little people who'd I converse with. Good times. That's....weird... After watching the X-Files episode Squeezed I used to be scared of sitting on the bog because of Tooms.
weeyellowbloke Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I also had another imaginary friend who was a acrobat. I only saw him when I was in a car and as the car moved he'd somersault and stuff on the pavement keeping up with the car, hanging from lamp posts and stuff like that. Yes, I came up with parcour before it was real. Holy crap! I used to imagine exactly the same guy. Seemed to make the time go quicker during dull car journeys. Other than car acrobat man, there was "Tony" who was the little boy who lived in my mouth. I stopped talking to him though after my dad went insane and chased me with an axe. Good times.
Shorty Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I had an imaginary friend called Tom. I also used to imagine that anyone over about 25 could read minds but it was a huge secret you were sworn to when you learned about it. And I thought aliens had kidnapped my real parents and were keeping them in a cave somewhere, and had replaced them.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Whoa, crazy stuff ... I never had any imaginary friends, but I imagined the acrobat, too!
Paj! Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I used to imagine (not to the degree of them having any personality/being a friend) a character, most likely Sonic, to be running and jumping over the roofs of parked cars we passed in the car. It was depressing when there were no more parked cars, as I just imagined him looking around, distraught, wondering what to do with his life.
Kirkatronics Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I never understood imaginary friends, do you actually see them? you dont see them, they are in your mind. You just think about them, its weird and hard to explain. As you gget older you ca still do it its just that you think of them more as daydreams.
Dyson Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 I had an imaginary friend called Tom.

And I thought aliens had kidnapped my real parents and were keeping them in a cave somewhere, and had replaced them. I used to think that, except it was eyes in the back of your head as opposed to mind reading
