This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
My initial reaction, the socially acceptable one, was akin to "oh, wow, that's weird." After I gave it a minute, though... Gotta say, if I could be certain of the fact that I wouldn't be interrupted in any way and had full control over the situation... yeah, that actually sounds like a nice getaway...
Edit: or in a bunker! I would not mind not seeing the light of day (or anything else, for that matter) for a month! Would be a nice RAM purge at the very least!
Honestly, I'd bring water and food. Why starve and suffer when you can not suffer. I know, worldly attachments and shit, but I never got the part about intentionally suffering. That is just like those Christian zealots that self-flagellated for their sins, just more passive.
But other than that, it sounds like a dream vacation.
Agreed, at least around water, my kidneys are hyperactive and need constant lubrication. Food, though... meh...
And I wouldn't do it for the suffering, I would genuinely do it for relaxation, like a full habitat sensory deprivation chamber.
What I do for suffering is try to face the sun for longer than I feel comfortable, the whole idea of self-immolation being purifying and such. I can see why some would think that, baking in the sun really does a wonderful job at bringing me back to the present through widespread pain.
I just dislike suffering without a cause. That might be more my personal view on things, though.
If I am going to suffer, then I want it to be for a reason. Like doing a fulfilling job well, or working out to feel better. Otherwise I could just punch myself in the nuts and meditate on my aching crotch.
On a side note, I don't seem to feel hunger as strongly as other people. I mostly get tired, while other people tend to get agitated / pissed off. Maybe I should try fasting for a while just to find out how I react. But, then it would be for a cause again...
what part of that isnt normal? The area in which we sleep can be what ever, is it just that he is alone with his own thoughts and does minimal food (most would just do rice only during these things)?
It's normal. Anon is just detached from reality.

The only part I find weird is the starving/dehydrating part, the rest sounds pretty cool.
Wow, intolerant much? Lots of people are Buddhists!
