    Also, tried?! I use the Force to open those little gates in supermarkes all the time.

    I carry people up the stairs daily. I lift parking barriers with just a swipe. I successfully pushed a cloud out of the way. I also control the flow of water from a garden hose. My force grip is too strong.

    Here's the deal: given enough time, it WILL work! I've tried it! See, what I do is I reach my hand out toward the remote and close my eyes and stay there. Sometimes it comes quickly, other times it takes several minutes. But the remote always winds up in my hand.

    Sure, it's because either my wife or one of my kids has intuited what I'm trying to do and they walk it over to me. But, hey, I'm still getting the remote to my hand regardless!

    Nah, there's no such thing as The Force - I used telekinesis.

    Admit it? There's not a single commenter here who isn't proud of the effort they put in. I feel like I came pretty close to success myself.

    Listen, I was 4 when Empire came out. Of course I did this.

    Yesterday.

    It still doesn’t work.

    After reading Hitchhiker's Guide, me and my cousin tried to fly by jumping off a (low) wall and forgetting that we were falling.

    You must be able to use the force for a prostate massage right?

    I did it today, the remote was too far away, so no harm in trying to see if I've accessed the force.

    Use the force, shoot webs, use telekinesis, launch a kamehameha...

    Bitch, I tried to make a ball of chi after seeing Gohan teach Videl how to do it

    I mean... What if it works? You'd be a fool not to give a shot every now and then.

    Duhh, of course. I was quite persistent, actually...

    Oh I have the worst story about this. I was having this wonderful dream where I had telekinesis and I could do all kinds of awesome stuff. Then my alarm started going off.

    And tried to bend a spoon by convincing yourself it doesn't exist

    I’ve found I can only do it to automatic doors.

    I keep trying and hoping eventually something will move.

    I have tried and failed in a dream at least once, because even when dreaming reality intrudes to make me miserable.

    not only have I tried, I succeeded!

    Double sliding doors are fun

    The remote is too far

  • source
  • [–] 2 points 4 months ago

    Yeah, but I didn't think it was force, just garden variety telekinesis.

    Tried moving things with my mind, shoot a Kamehameha wave, change the outcome of an event with a ritual or some fake BS, water bend in the shower, flicked a wand (and a bean or two), and attempt to be cooler than I am.

    All magic that hasn't worked yet still trying

    Not the force, but after a long Bioshock session I felt like I should be able to get something from across the room with telekinesis.

    Automatic doors and traffic lights.

    I tried to move things using my mind. It was before I saw Star Wars though, but the idea was there.

    How is this considered interesting enough to upvote by literally anyone. Of course most people have tried that.
