shockingly he also endorses a really shady-looking energy drink that's very clearly a front for some sort of mlm scam

Wait this might be a little to O/T but I was thinking about shaping up my body and I am getting obsessed with this CrossFit thing. Its website really sucked me in one day when I clicked on an ad about "the sport of fitness"(damn hulu!).

Seems like a thing reebok designed that's like a competitive/but-also-were-all-in-it-together circuit gym thing... I dunno it sets my cult nerves off because it combines love-bombing with self-enhancement and WINNING. The enhancement is real though, so I suppose that makes a big difference. Maybe I should start a new thread about fitness stuff cause it seems like a whole different area.

I'm Daniel and I'm a writer from England. I created this blog because I wanted to give you the truth about the "Quantum Jumping scam".

.............

The thing about this entire Quantum Jumping Burt Goldman thing is simple. People are shocked by the concept of parallel universes and so it’s in their natural instinct to feel like they’re being tricked in some way.

i can't stop thinking about this shit. watching this interview with miriam gubovicova for the 3rd time and worrying that i'm in too deep.

"the leaderonomics show" is not a cnbc asia program, i don't think

http://leaderonomics.com/theleaderonomicsshow/

that host came up on google as a HR manager for GE asia in 2003, at least

Critique of Pure Moods (goole), Monday, 6 February 2012 14:24 (twelve years ago) link

that's one of those things that seems so minor, but like, why fib about it? no you were not on cnbc asia, you were just on some webshow.

Critique of Pure Moods (goole), Monday, 6 February 2012 14:25 (twelve years ago) link

it does not look like a real show.

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Monday, 6 February 2012 14:30 (twelve years ago) link

also the way the host grunted "uh-huh" "ya" "yup" thru that interview, did not indicate to me someone really well-trained in on-air broadcasting

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Monday, 6 February 2012 14:31 (twelve years ago) link

maybe they wanted to convey an amateur vibe. you have to watch out for these people! they are subtle manipulators

I had a loooong talk with my mom about this thread on Saturday -- she is trying to write a book, and she goes to a lot of "conferences for writers" (that's what she calls them) and they are full of aspiring life coaches and self-help hucksters in addition to regular people trying to sell memoirs about their crazy lives. She's very aware of this panoply of potential weirdos/predators, but has made a few questionable "friends" along the way. She's kind of a curious restless person (anyone who knows me knows that this sounds familiar) and I think she goes there to peoplewatch as much as anything else. She has also made some alright friends and people who are genuinely interested in what she's doing and whatnot.

tl;dr --> my mom is into this shit (like this thread is, not like involved)
