Borian User ID: 1139038 United States 06/23/2012 02:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ok I live a ferry ride away from Vancouver. For years we head over to the city for shopping and appointments on average once every couple of months. I do not drive and take transit everywhere. Quoting: Canuckchick Well the last few times I have been to Vancouver, this week twice, I have encountered more mental people in public than ever in my entire life!! Sitting on the bus and seeing a man twitching out in a seat nearby and then talking to himself about Hitler very rapidly. Another man on the ferry talking to his hand in a very animated way and every now and then telling his hand to SETTLE DOWN and smacking it and then saying sorry my dear. Seeing a man lurch around us as we sat by the waterfront dragging his leg and drooling and then yelling at his leg to hurry up idiot! A woman kept asking us with excitement if we liked peaches while we were on transit, over and over, like every 5 minutes. And then at a bus stop a man kept raising his hands to the sky and saying WHAT? WHAT? and then punching himself and doing it all over again. And there are more...but that was just this week! What is going on??? I seriously have never seen anything like this in my whole life and have been to the city loads...how could I have missed all of this/ And like I said for the past few months I have seen a variety of things like this but this week was on a massive increase... The thread started out well, but soon turned into a liberal circle jerk. Liberalism works as long as everyone else goes to work while they make the big decisions. It's true. Never works. |

I'm not 100% sure what the reason for this is...but I certainly think the complexities of modern society are at least part of the reason. We still have a lot of caveman DNA, but we're forced to live in a civilized society...It's very difficult for some people to adjust...it defies their primal instincts. Some people are more evolved than others. Quoting: Doc S 17983849 Another theory is stress... Stress can do crazy things to people. It was a simpler time 100 years ago. i see many sane people behaving like crazy in local trains.stress is the reason |

Quoting: ThereIsNoEye What they ultimately do, if carried out to the extreme, is separate people from their 'better nature', which I call 'The Self'. Society is becoming more full of people addicted to these things and, consequently, more egotistical and less aware of what drives or motivates them to do what they do. In other words...people have lost the ability to be Silent. And, in return, have slowly sacrificed a portion of their sanity. Such is the dual-nature of technology. +1000 |

Quoting: closing eyes That's a good idea. Funding is dropping and so maybe a call to your local mental health hub is worth a shot to find an answer you can live with. It was around 1968 when mental hospitals closed down and all these people were turned out and full of living stresses and no safe routine. Shame what we've become as a society. |

It's in Industrial Food Producers products. It's a form of Chemical Lobotomy. GMO = Chemical Lobotomy... It's in Corn Products, so just try and find something WITHOUT corn in it? Corn Meal...Corn Syrup...Corn Chips... It's even in the gasoline Ethanol is made from GMO Corn. Since it's NOT tested by the FDA, when GMO Corn Ethanol is burned you may be breathing GMO products in the air? FDA policy does not do testing for safety of a product. It is the VICTIM of a dangerous product that must prove they were harmed in some way by the product. The manufacturers of these product have better and more lawers, own most of the testing companies, make large donations to political organizations, make large grants and donations to Hospitals and Physician associations, send Judges and Court officers on vacations and junkets...etc...etc. Now, if you are a working person who has been harmed by a dangerous product, who are you going to go to? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16525876 The concept of sanity in society is alike to randomly distributing books from the city library to all residents and requiring that each independently return identical book reports agreeing on all points. And society's concept of solving the "problem"? If they fail to do so, you take away their reading glasses and lamp. |

If there was an island that only showed images and messages and information to its citizens about ballet- via radio, tv and other media... everyone would be a dancer. They are called television PROGRAMS for a reason. Ok Computer? |

I think sometimes they act weird so much they start to really BE weird. Like Bela Lagosi the guy who played Dracula in old movies. He started sleeping in a coffin for real & closing his curtains during the day & other weird shit. |
