Around the dinner table, the conversation was lively. Thank you but for now, the forum has been archived.
I try not to whip that one out, as a rule...as, you know, some of these theories have been proven to be correct, and there is a lot about the world we don't understand....
But this whole 'Everything is programming, Media is evil' thing is ridiculous.
You're right, of course. I was looking forward to having a bit of fun, though. Oh well.
A guy I lived next door to, years ago, said the current fad for SF was due to aliens softening us up, getting us all used to the idea. In all other respects, he was a perfectly nice, normal guy. One of the few people I'd ever trust to look after my house and pets when I was away.
Nelson Mandela is Judy!!!!
I bloody knew it!
You know what happens when you get close to a black hole? Interesting thing called Spaghettification. Really not nice.
This only happens if the event horizon curvature is significant locally. A mass black hole can have a relatively flat event horizon. In that case, the difference in gravitation between different parts of an extended body is not noticed and you pass through the event horizon. Now you will be forced inwards as space is so curved such that motion in any direction points back to the center. Here the real spaghettification may come about.
So you may pass through the event horizon but you can not escape become part of the singularity.

So, you go into one type and you're basically FUBAR, or you go into the other type and you're basically... FUBAR.
Either way, you would rather be elsewhere.
Man, people like you really irritate me.
I'm pretty sure most of the people on this forum are scientifically aware enough to know that there is a multiverse theory and that is what Lynch/Frost are leaning on when writing this show.
Yet, the tin-foil hat brigade have this theory that no film ever made is just a film, everything is 'programming', and that you're somehow special or more aware of this.
Nope, it's just not true. Yes, there has been an element of this throughout history, but Hollywood is not a group of weird cultists said around a table, eating babies and figuring out how to dumb us down.You're also not special, or any more aware than us. Nor are you any less programmed. In fact, it's very possible you are more programmed than any of us, because you've become brainwashed into believing everything is programming.
How dare you speak to General Pickett like that!

So good you posted twice.

My laptop keeps glitching out in Chrome and getting stuck. Winds up double posting.
Someone's got a Doppelganger...
I mean, that's what this programming is for, right? To prepare us for the coming of our Doppelgangers?
Personally, I'm a bit of a dick due to good old autism, so my Doppelganger would probably be a really nice guy.
Actually that's a question that I've always found intriguing...if you're a dick, would you produce a good Doppelganger?
The OP didn't provide much detail, but I have said before that I view Twin Peaks as allegorical. I think it represents a metaphysical struggle between the forces of light and darkness, as played out through human chess pieces moved into position by eternal inter-dimensional actors.
The only reason I feel this way is b/c there are psychics in my family and I have seen things as strange, beautiful, and wonderfully inexplicable as events depicted in TP in person. My own eyes. Otherwise I might not believe what I do.

Happens to me sometimes.
I just delete one of the posts....
I know this isn't the Mandela Effect, but I have been amazed at how all of us watch the same episodes, yet come away with completely different interpretations of what we see. And stick hardfast to it (not everyone, but some on here are dug-in as to their theories/interpretations being gospel).
Like, the thing about Mr. C and Richard heading to Las Vegas. I've seen that pop-up a few times, but have no clue where people got it from.
Or the whole Freddie-isn't-real theory that some state as fact. Again, not sure where people get it from, or why they're so steadfast in wanting to believe it.
Twin Peaks is, I suppose, a strange show. It might attract strange people. LOL

I knew you were going to say that.

Seriously though, I'm not discounting your statements. I have no reason to doubt your word, and having seen and experienced some bizarre events myself I'd be daft to say there's nowt other than the stuff we can eat or wear. That said, I do believe we live in a mechanistic universe, where everything is underpinned by basic scientific principles. We just don't know all of them yet. Of the stuff we have discovered so far, I think it's safe to say the speed of light is an absolute upper limit to the velocity of baryonic matter and a femtosecond is the smallest measurable fraction of time. Also, it appears the universe doesn't flow smoothly from one event to another, it ticks in quantum steps. Other than that, dunno. Maybe there's a way to cheat the speed of light by hopping out of the universe into another.
I'm happy so long as nobody mentions "Speed of thought", since it's been measured and found to be rather slow.
