Have any of you shown signs of ESP?

ROFLOL!!! i know the feeling since i play UT only... though i will say this, UT's got more than it's fair shitload of glitches....*urgh* but it's definately worth on facing worlds when you can go "redeemer cruising" and get up close and personal with your friend on the other tower with a pocket sized nuke to the groin or head areas... :D

I've seen people kill themselves three times in a row with that thing. Guess the concept of don't shoot at the wall three feet away never got through to them.

They also forget that it's a big fat slow missile which can be easily shot down in flight. If you shoot it at someone who's looking right at you and has a minigun, he's liable to destroy it two feet out of the launch tube.

I've seen (and done) the same thing so many times with the SSM launcher in Marathon. Pain in the ass when you're first learning ot play.

One of you is doing some kind of work.

Another of you is drinking something.
Well, no shit Sherlock. This is the kind of shell game "psychics" like to play. Make a reasoned guess that is just specific enough to draw the mark in. Then as the mark spills the beans and confides in the psychic, the guesses get better and better.

And no, there is no such thing as ESP, it's all pseudoscientific hogwash. True there are instances of people being able to anticipate things, or guess things in a very "spooky" way, but your brain is continuously gathering information and making connections that you are not consciously aware of. And for people who believe in the veracity of Nostrildumbass or any featured guest of the Art Bell program, most of them claimed that they predicted these things after the fact.

A Ouija board once told me I was a goddess and that all the people from the spirit plane write poetry in my honour and that I don't have a guardian angel sort of thing like everyone else....

Does that sort of fall under this category? :)

A Ouija board told me that me and my friend April were having a kid together. Then the ghost in my room trapped us in my room. First part I didn't agree with. Second part I didn't like too much. I more than likely will never touch another Ouija board.

Actually, I do have dreams of me doing stuff... and it feels like dejavu (I know, spelled wrong), doubt its ESP more likely than just my mind making random predictions based on what I forgot to do or what would typically happen the next day... Wait, I just proved my Dejavu to psuedo... damn I'm good at being a skeptic

I've done that plenty of times, too. It's even easy to shoot down with the Enforcer.
