And if your double saw a double, would that be a quadruple?

Exclamation A case study on dual-consciousness threads

I recall a thread extremely similar to this one a little while back, which I found, thanks to the handy "Search for all posts by this user." feature in profiles. It's called " I shared a hallucination with myself,..", and it was created on May 18, 2003:

I begun to feel what the guy was acting out, it was a horrible feeling, I had to get out of the apartment to shake the feeling off,as I was nearing the end of the hall,I felt faint,I held onto the bathroom door, I let go, I fell by the side of the toilet bowl, as I looked up,I realized I was looking down at me looking up at me,simulteneously,I was split into two physical bodies, with the same mind in both, it lasted about 5 or 6 seconds, just enough time to sahocxk me, 'What the fuch'!!' was my reaction from both ends,both of them me. I felt like I was God, awesome,! just awesome,!!!
Now, to cut a long(er) story short(er), that thread was closed on May 23, 2003:

As such, this is done as an S&S thread. If there is a further personal bent to be discussed, the thread can be moved. Or if someone has some scientific insight that will invigorate the discussion, let me know via PM.

Now, Cojana, given that you seem to be describing the same experience in this thread as in the other one, (why) do you believe that this thread will go significantly further than the other one? (And as an aside, what's with using the sunglass�d smiley for every single one of your posts?)

Just letting everyone know where this issue stood three months ago,
-Chiron
But hey, if you did actually invent a flux capacitor and accidently posted this here and now before going back to May and posting it again, I'm all for hearing the evidence!

Have you ever done ketamine? I did a shit load at a rave once and I could look over at myself sitting next to me.
If it's posible to induce this kind of hallucination chemicaly then it can probably happen naturaly in some people at certain times.

Uh oh. Cojana hasn't posted in a couple of days. I expect the Bugs thread asking why the mods deleted this one any minute now.

Default oh.oh. guilty,!

okey,its me again, its the same story,if I don't let people know what happen to me I'll go nuts, if it were drugs that induced my incident, I would willingly consume anything that would promote the splitting of myself into two,with the same mind in both, I can close my eyes and perform the deed, at will,.. you'll never know how awesome that are,

At least we'll know how awesome it is to use a plural verb with a singular subject.

If I could split myself in two, I certainly wouldn't bother wasting one of me to post on an internet forum about it...
