shimofuri: vanishing point

Posted: Oct 20th 2005
Mood: Bored
Music: pink floyd- dogs

i'm seriously becoming invisable. D: wtf.

i know i become soft spoken when i am upset, but this goes way beyond people not hearing me when i mumble. I AM A MUMBLER, OKAY. but people not noticing me when i'm right in front of them or not hearing me when i reiterate myself four times at louder volume is something else entirely.

it is interesting. perhaps i should give up being mr. furious and be invisable boy instead. HMMM.

either way i'm going to have an essay on myche biology up at somepoint.

That sucks... of course, some people are stupid, and just don't listen.
Because all they can think about is what they're going to say next.

On another note...
You're Mr Furious too?
X3
I find that funny.

I speak pretty low, too. So I sound all weird when I have to speak up.

It's kind of like "Y HELO THAR"

Try this: Stand only inches behind them silently and with a quiet smile on your face. Start, very slowly, leaning in. Stop before making contact and just loom there. If they're speaking to someone make sure your head is over your targets' left shoulder while you're looking at their partner's shoes. If their shoulder is unavailable, lean around their left elbow.

When they notice, look mildly surprised and say "Oh, hey. I was just thinking... (insert your sentece here.)" Say it in the most mild voice possible and as if they had come up to you and said something.

Why: Its breaking down several barriers at once and putting your target into an off-balance position while you are still neutral. By entering the 'personal bubble' you appear to be agressive while your tone and physicality are passive. Mixed physical signals coupled with utter silence on your part force them to reframe the situation to deal with you. By looking bored you maintain a non-agressive though invasive presence. The target will invariably respond with an interogitive of some sort you can use to express your thoughts. Targeting the left side is 80% effective in blindsiding someone on their weak side.

Or hump them.

When I fold my wings, I cease to exist. Or at least it seems to me that others stop preciving my existance. It is creepy, I can choose to fold my wings (its a mental metaphore, and really how I move those thought muscles) walk into a room of people and not be seen. As if I was never there. That sense you get when someone is standing next to you? I don't give off that. It's been called most scary when I do such.
