When someone asks what you’re thinking, what is the weirdest, most rabbit-hole thought you had going on in your head at the time?

1. Plenty of times this has happened, I just can’t remember because I’ve always been stoned off my ass when it does

2. Human race could actually be the aliens

3. How is humanity beneficial to anything, like where does it fit in the universe.

4. Probably post sex when everything is firing randomly and I’m like ‘If the disease were cosmic powered spaghetti then the economics of Seattle would justify blue.’

5. During my last rotation in med school I was sitting alone in the office of the family practice doc that was supervising me. When he walked in I was staring at the center of an empty wall. He said – what are you doing? I said thinking. He called me a liar so I told him what I was thinking about. I described the supercomputer bus I was designing and asked him his opinion on some specifics. I used to read textbooks recreationally and I was reading an ECE grad school textbook on supercomputer design at the time. In general, I tried not to be noticed in med school but I really take offense to being called a liar so I intended to make him feel stupid.

6. I couldn’t tell you, because often the second someone asks me a question, it all vanishes.

7. What if Life as we know it is actually a combination of both heaven and hell?

8. Someone asked me that and I responded “All things considered, fat people use more soap”

9. I was in the middle of a space adventure that had a me and a harem of space chicks dealing with a infestation of hostile alien creatures.

10. I was riding in my uncle’s car near the beach, and it was cloudy outside and drizzling and there were palm trees and tropical flowers along the side of the road. And my mind wandered to an article I had recently read about what Venus would be like if we terraformed it – a little warmer than earth/tropical and deserts and with a non-stop rainstorm on the side facing the sun because of how slow the planet rotates. So my uncle asked me what I was thinking about and I told him and said “now you see why I don’t talk a lot?” And he just said “yep” lmao

11. Kuru. It’s a prion disease that affects cannibalistic tribes.

    After watching The Book of Eli, I remembered there was also some dialogue in Fallout NV about human meat giving people the shakes. Figured that was odd that 2 sources said the same thing so I did some 2 AM research and that topic stayed in my head for weeks.

    Trying to explain that without sounding weird was a challenge haha.
