Deja Vu.

It's so shit how you can dream you'll be speaking to someone and then in a few days you will and you'll also know what they'll say, or something similar.

Yet the dreams you most want to come true, don't.

The absolute nastiest gut feeling is when you have a dream and in it, something awesome happens and you start living in the dream. Everything becomes so real that you physically start feeling the effects. Then you wake up and still think you are in that situation and realise you're not. It's horrid.

Oh dude, I ****ing HATE that.

I think it's a way of God telling us something about to happen. I had this one deja vu on a very, very special occasion.Something I didn't even think possible...

I think we are all screwed when we die, and we reach Heaven, and find out that God does exist, but he's a monkey. 😑

You are not very religious are u?!
it shows...

No, no I'm not. Why should I be?

Ok, Deja Vu - basicly it happenes because one of your eyes moves at the moment much much faster than the other eye, and when your other eye catches up, it makes your brain think that you have seen a paticular event or a place before.

Thats the scientific explanation of Deja Vu.

That isn't true for every instance. How would they explain knowing someone before you meet them?? Science isn't 100% accurate when it comes to things like ESP.

Might not be God....it could be our Guardian Angels. 😉

Considering we use 3% of our minds, that's another 96% of our already extremely powerful minds that isn't being used.

We could probably create whole realities if we had control over the rest.

(I thought it was 30%, when did it change?)

30% of our minds? Woah? That's alot. I thought it was 5%? 30% is God intelligence and super psychic abilities. Our mind is a storage vessel where wonderment and unusual things happen. Science has proven that during deja vu, the brain shuts down for less than a fraction of a second to recharge, and when it turns back on, we look around in the same place our brain left us and we believe we have been here or done something before whereas we are during it now. Some believe that deja vu are echoes of a past existence where Time has started over, reversed itself, the big bang -- the big implosion, and we are living everything all over again. Who knows.

Well, I had read somewhere a while ago that humans DON'T use 70-75% of their brains, therefore I assumed the percentage IN use is 25-30%

Hey, I could be wrong, who knows? or cares?

Maybe you got confused somewhere. Oceans cover 70-75% of the world. We only use 5% at the most of our grey matter. Some even less. 😉

It's possible. No big deal. At least now I know the right information.

i also knew that we used about 5-7% of our brains. but that indeed seems a little low. 30 sound more reasonable. either way...there is definitely a part left fot developing into who knows what

that is hardly an explanation. moving an eye quicker than the other does not have repercussions on my perception of intervals of time. because i know (or feel, anyway) that i've had this experience i;m living now SOME time ago....as in, not 2 seconds ago.

besides..do you think one eyed people don't have deja vus? 😛

It's all fun till someone loses an eye. Then it's humour with impaired vision.

Seriously though, there's literally millions of reasons most likely, as to why things happen. If we don't know why, we're never gonna have a scientific explanation.

I didnt come up with that theory, its what i have been thought at my anatomy class.

Your brain makes you believe you have seen the paticular thing or an event before when one eye moves quicker than the other, it has nothing to do with time. Its the brain function.

Just like dreaming is, you think you dream for hours on end, when in fact your dream lasts a minute tops, therefore ''some time ago'' means nothing in this case.

I wouldnt know if one eyed people have deja vus since i never met one and asked, i have however met people who never had a deja vu, and to whom its pretty hard to explain what it actually is.

The most likely candidate for explanation, according to scientists in these fields, is that déjà vu is not an act of "precognition" or "prophecy" but is actually an anomaly of memory; it is the impression that an experience is "being recalled" which is false. This is substantiated to an extent by the fact that in most cases the sense of "recollection" at the time is strong, but any circumstances of the "previous" experience (when, where and how the earlier experience occurred) are quite uncertain. Likewise, as time passes, subjects can exhibit a strong recollection of having the "unsettling" experience of déjà vu itself, but little to no recollection of the specifics of the event(s) or circumstances they were "remembering" when they had the déjà vu experience.

dumbass thats a premanition and to clear deja vu up

Dejavu is a fualt of mind where you think it did but you feel as if its happened before but you mind makes it twice it didnt happen more then once and when we have premanitions its something stupid that would have happened ne ways (most of the time ive had some well lets not talk about those)
