I don't think I'll be watching this movie. Alot of strange shit has been happening when I started thinking about the number 23. But only at the current time I decided to give it a go, it only has validity at that moment. The perception of the present through an awareness that perceives it.

hah. i was going to start a thread about the 23 enigma, but none other than gwely beat me to it.
i was going to talk about my experience that i had yesterday, the
23rd. along with one of my close friends, i met up with my brother who, having an unexpected rare call off work that
day, arranged that we meet to go to a club. it was, of course, called 'club 23'. but i assure you he didn't set any of this up for that effect.
anyways, that's really the only coincidence about the number. the rest of what i'm going to add is something
corroborating with what gwely just said. "The perception of the present through an awareness that perceives it."
that's exactly dead on. we were walking to the club and entertaining the thoughts of these coincidences, when suddenly
i was feeling the emergence of a familiar anxiety. the last time i smoked weed (months ago), i had,i cannot stress
enough, extremely intense feelings that i was figuring out coincidences -deeply ingrained and specific to me- that are not supposed to be
figured out. it felt like if you unlock these coincidences, you remove the devices that control the flow of your
life. and if you stop that very elaborate control over your life, you begin to get trapped as time slows to a hault,
making you entirely responsible for the future of your personal existence. it's as if if you don't get out of that
state, you'll be left behind while everything else in the world disconnects from you, leaving you (though i can
only speculate) horribly lost to some unknown fate.
i used the analogy of a (correct me if im wrong)blackhole in our mind to describe this to myself, because it
seemed the cannabis showed me that i was stuck in this sort of event horizon, a place where reality loops and gets
more and more stuck as it repeats, and with no way to escape except for a conscious effort to think out
possibilities; concepts or anything that keep the flow of time happening substantially, so that you can have

----'seemlessly' random experiences in the future that you feel no control over. it felt like experiencing this again
was a reminder that i was still stuck in the event horizon, and that all the days that have went by were just
reduced back down to that moment. what's so disturbing is that the coincidences seem to come so easy, and so
strong and fast, that you can start to get stuck even if you're percieving a different and vastly distinct looking environment, and
having any particular thoughts at the moment. imagine the impending feeling that after a short countdown, your
current reality could suddenly shift, and you could appear somewhere else very different. my body felt insubstantiated like that, as if
i could just shoot into space in any direction in as short as a blip, or fall through the ground.
even if that's an illusion, just a messing with my circuits, or some bad physical condition, it tells us something
about a moment like that, which can only be comprehended at that very moment. of course it's incredibly easy to
say that i would have reconstituted without any effort at all- which im sure i probably would- but at that moment
it felt nearly impossible to just go with it without a struggle, and so you leave no chances. hopefully i don't
have a hole in my brain or something.
anyways..i'm fine now. sorry if that was too long. i don't think i wanna see that movie now either.

See, there are two people from surrey in this thread right now. And three total from the lower mainland. Seeing that these are the only people in this thread so far, its a 23 combination.

The 23 Enigma is very interesting (don't know if the film is or not). I first became interested in it about 10 years ago after reading about it a Robert Anton Wilson book. May he be Resting In Peace.

Yeah it's very interesting. Whether the film is good or bad, chances are it'll still get me paranoid, as I'm susceptible to that.

"Also the new 2008 movie called 23 millimeters is coming out in late 2007 it is the story of cj mcdonald and tasi suavaa
talking about how they penitrate each other colons 23 times a second for 23 seconds every 23rd minute of the day. This exciting pornographic thriller will have everyone thinking about how to incorperate the number 23 into their sex lives."

Not particularly - I have the Discordian book kicking about somewhere - it's funny and interesting, but not something I'd care to commit to.

17 is sometimes considered one of the other numbers like 23 (13 and 17 included).

And I wouldn't turn a cheek and say I'm manifesting some obsession to reach 23. If I try to find it I won't, it doesn't work that way, it just happens, as if to remind you, nope, this glitch is still here
I haven't read any books on it, so if Marlowe could say anything insightful I'd be grateful. My mind is racing with anxiety because of it.

Its suggestion. You are just noticing the 23's more than the others because you have been training your mind to find them.

And if you are really interested in reading books about this, find the illuminatus trillogy (and then afterward read the schrodingers cat trillogy).

I've taken that into account. And I'm fully aware that we do that sort of entrainment everyday for various things. This is somehow different. It takes your 'blah blah training mind to find things blah blah', grabs it by the balls and squeezes until your head pops off into the matrix and neo's like "whoa. you're the 23rd person to reach zion".

I don't think I'd make it through one of those books, I'm so prone to anxiety it's just bad. I've spent the last year trying to reformat my perception of reality after some bad drug trips and now this comes along. Completely removes the ground that I stand on. It's beyond terrifying. It's like waking up in your already standing awake body.

And since I'm aware that in not training my mind to find 23, I won't even give a mention to the '23rd century entertainment' line beside my name, as that's from a b12 album. b12 would be good right about now. and a bottle of gin.

the date on your post is 2007-02-24.
if we add the first 6 digits: 2+7+2=11
11 is made only of the number 1
then 24-1=23
then the time you posted is 15:25
1+(1+5)*2+(2*5)=23

Gwely has 5 charcaters, Mernans has 7.
7-5=2 <--- the last (and only) digit is 2
7+5=13 <--- the last digit is 3.
23! but what about the 1 in 13? let's see:
member number: 02055627 lets split it.
0205 and 5627
0+2+5=7
56-27=29
29-7=22
22 + 1 = 23
