If you are ever sat next to me on a plane and do this Louis I swear to god my imp will tell me to punch you in the face and I can't promise that I'll be able to keep it quiet.

Louis I feel bad because ppl are giving you a hard time. I would venture to guess that your imps are no stranger than a lot of those other posters would never actually admit to having.

c'mon now louis, regardless of the total lack of respect i have for you, i don't seriously think you should be lobotomised. uh, my "imp" told me to say that.

They tell me to walk insane distances between two vaguely-known locations.

haha there's definitely a libido-imp crossover elmo but i'm talking about situations where sexual contact would be remarkably inappropriate or even damaging, i.e. a sports changing-room, a train etc...in your situation, it could be highly appropriate and logical.
― thank you, flipper, for nickelback (country matters), Tuesday, 7 July 2009 17:53 (fourteen years ago) link
Basically what ENBB just said.
in some cultures it is considered rude NOT to bury your face into a hot stranger's great round ass

On especially frustrating days at work I have impy visions of picking up my keyboard and smashing my target (boss, coworker, customer, etc) across the face with it. This vision is usually a lot like that fantasy scene in High Fidelity where they hit Tim Robbins in the face with a phone and his teeth come flying out of his mouth like candy corn.

the thing with asses, and burying your face in them, is that if the person is walking it's hard to get down on your knees in time to position yourself before they walk away. this is why my imps usually just tell me to give it a good hard smack as i walk by.

I don't know. The article seems to suggest that it's totally normal.
But a vast majority of people rarely, if ever, act on such urges, and their susceptibility to rude fantasies in fact reflects the workings of a normally sensitive, social brain

I think the imps are different from my rage under certain conditions, or elmo's road rage, or emotional triggers. It's like...not an emotional thing, it's strictly the rational brain going "what if what if what if" just to see what happens.

i have a theory that it's impossible to have imps/earworms/any number of mental maladies while doing hard math in your head, and another theory that mathematicians are too good at math, and need successively harder problems not to go mad, and that's why they go mad so often.maybe cure is worse than disease though?

A few years back I remember it seemed like there was a mild ilx obsession with the british ASBO, or Anti Social Behavior Order, which is part of their legal system. I don't think people even talk about it much these days. But the idea of it worked it's way into my brain and began to take over, such that it sometimes creeps into my brain in the form of "ASBOlutely!" or even "Anti Social Behavior Order - lutely!"
