Your non-sexual fantasies

Title says it. What do you fantasize about that is not sexual in nature.

For me, I imagine about doing graffiti, for some reason. One day at a lecture, I though how one could sneak between the back rows and spray on the backs of the chairs and remain unseen.

Or something like this.

I fantasize about a Jane Austen / Emily Bronte style world where I can be at home in an estate in the country, surrounded by genteel people, saints and sinners amoung them to be sure, but all undoubtedly civilized... Even the common country folk have a certain nobility about them.

I fantasize about having just enough money to have my leisure... Time to read and travel and experience the world, and write and create art. I also fantasize about having enough money to do anything I want... To help the world... Change it for the better.

I fantasize about Captaining a ship... A great wooden First Rater with miles of canvas in the wind, or a little tramp freighter along the Vland - Spinward Marches run, or (especially) an Imperial Navy Warship... Fighting to get to the Admiralty and my first SD squadron, just so I can lament my loss of the Captain's chair for the Admiralty Flag Bridge.

I fantasize about arguing Cases that Really Matter in a court of law, making society and people's lives better by helping them to find justice.

I fantasize about being able to speak all languages, fluently.

I fantasize about having an encyclopedic knowledge... Magically complete... So that, if I searched for an answer and could not find it, I could say a sort of "safe word" in my mind, and simply know... And know the knowledge was correct, and how to prove it.

I fantasize about being young enough, attractive enough, and willing enough to wait tables in LA, to get a chance to act in films...

I fantasize about living long enough to watch the changes the world and societies make... Perhaps going back a few centuries (or ten or thirty) so I could see the whole story, first hand... Gathering enough wealth, perhaps to not run things directly, but to have a good seat to watch them happen.

That last one's the best, and my favorite. It gives me plenty of time to do all the tings I want to do, and plenty of opportunity to see the things happen that I want answers about. Add to it an ability to translocate oneself in space and time to get to the good places as good stuff is happening...

Mine is somewhat similar to Honor's I would like to have the money and the power to see the world, and I do mean anywhere I want to go. None of the sterile tours like you get of the white house, I would want to be able to just walk freely wherever I wanted to there. I would preferably rather see Europe and Asia, in part because of being older, but also I have seen quite a bit of the U.S., not as much as I would like, but ...

I would love to hitchhike/backpack the British Isles including Ireland, Europe, Asia, India, Parts of Africa, though probably mostly Egypt. Basically be able to go to Europe and Asia for several years not worry about working, where meals would come from etc.

I also have a romanticized version of Hobo life in the U.S. Riding the rails, traveling the country with out a care in the world.

I fantasize about getting on a motorcycle and traveling along open North American roads, with no destination in mind and caring about little except taking in the scenery around me and wondering what path I'll take in the next few minutes.

By extension, I suppose I also fantasize about having the means - money, lack of obligations or commitments - to live out the above.

I fantasize about having a dear friend accompany me on walks through nearby wilderness.

I fantasize about being smart enough to successfully manage my life.

I fantasize about being comfortable enough to experience feelings of closeness and tenderness towards another person.

I fantasize about bringing violent death to violent criminals.

I fantasize about assaulting myself and destroying my possessions in a catastrophic fit of anger.

I fantasize about killing myself in a highly specific and gruesome way designed to be an act of simultaneous penance and spite towards people I hate.

My fantasy to be a boy is not completely sexual in nature. I've also fantasized about smoking cigarettes even though smoking scares me for severeal reasons including the fire part. I would never smoke. I fantasize about going to heaven even though I don't belive in it.

A nice bloodless coup of the U.S. government, then restoring the Rule of Law and the Constitution.

Throwing all of the swindlers, panderers, lobbyists, and special interest people in a large pit and disposing of expired napalm in said pit.

Bringing the Bush Family, Don Rumsfeld, The Cheney Family (except their lesbian daughter), Condi, the 5 conservative members of the Supreme Court, and everyone that Bush has snuck in to positions of power up on the treason charges they all richly deserve to face.

I take time from each of my days to sit by myself and do nothing by think and fantasize. You might call it meditation, but I dwell on my thoughts instead of trying to think of "nothing" or whatever.

Lately, I have been imagining making a series of documentary films on internet and videogaming culture.

Now you are making me want to do the documentary film I have thought of that I am sure very few others would truly be interested in so it's doomed to commercial failure (but then so are most documentaries)

Old Cemetaries

Which will mostly confine it to the 13 original colonies in this country. I like the idea of the small rural cemetaries. I have driven through some parts of Michigan and Ohio, Especially Ohio (seems to have much more intact rural farming communities) and seen some along side the road and wanted to stop. I have only done so once, but I was actually looking for a family cemetary at the time (and got lucky found it on first attempt)

*editted to add*
Of the five pieces of artwork hanging in my Apartment, One is a MACTARNAHAN's Blackwatch sign, 3 are cemetary pictures and one is a (almost) Gargoyle Eye view from Notre Dame. Almost because you can also see the Gargoyle in the picture. I wish I could claim them as mine, my attempts have turned out extremely crappy, in part to not having a decent camera, but also not having the talent/knowledge to take better photos.

An Olympic-sized pool filled with chocolate pudding, of course.

Bustertheclown · Post by **Bustertheclown** » Sat Oct 06, 2007 4:29 pm

I spend a lot of time fantasizing about what I need to do in order to survive once the zombies come.

Swordsman3003 · Post by **Swordsman3003** » Sat Oct 06, 2007 5:32 pm

I plan to drive to the frigid Canadian north; the Zombies will freeze solid and be unable to reach me!

A gun shop, with an adjoining convenience store. You just sit up on the roof all day long, and pick the motherfuckers off, headshot after headshot. You're golden until you run out of ammo, or twinkies, whichever comes first.

(of course, this is my version of the scenario from that zombie movie two or three years back with the guy in the gun shop, who ran out of food. . .)

- -

As long as we're fantasizing here; no. Not zombies. Really. They smell bad.

How about, race car driver? Fuck yeah man. And not this pussy NASCAR go-fast-turn-left bullshit. And not even the emasculation that Indy became when they outlawed turbochargers. Real racing. Like F1, or CanAm. Or those old cross-country rally racers like the Panamericana Carrera. (wouldda loved to drive a Porsche 550 all the way from Canada to Panama.).

Sometimes I fantasize about doing the Gauguin thing, and going to live on a polynesian island with the natives, painting the nekkid boobie girls, eating mangoes, and since it's my fantasy, surfing.

Or a corporate spy. I've never worked for a company that I wanted to betray. But I've wondered how much money there would be to be made at doing that kind of thing; going to work somewhere just to get at all their data and intellectual property, and sell it to the highest bidder. The double identities, and the moral ambiguity that allows. . .

Overblue · Post by **Overblue** » Sat Oct 06, 2007 6:15 pm

Also I just remembered I've fantasized about getting married (even though I plan on never getting married) . I've fantasized about both being a bride and being a groom. I didn't really fantasize about who I was marrying as much as I fantasized about what I was wearing. I would wear blue. If I was a groom I might wear a light blue tux with a black tie or bow tie. If I was a bride I would wear a light blue dress with a light blue veil or I could wear a tux as a bride. My dress might be short or have flowers on it.

It's thawing rapidly, best hope the zombie invasion happens soon.

overblue reminded me of another fantasy;
To be a priest (not necessarily. catholic - you know, whatever denomination). I'd really like to be confident, and wise enough to counsel, and teach, and inspire - but also, I'd like to marry people.

(I had a friend in High School who got one of those mail order ordinations, his own made up church/religion, - this was before I read about Discordianism even, and within the first three months, he had married five couples at about $100 a pop, this was in 1985).

To have an electric guitar, and a friend who has an electric guitar, and have the most amazing rock-out session ever, culminating in us smashing our guitars together.

Ah, the good ole' Zedpocalypse. Yeah; I have plans aswell, simply put:
-Survive the initial wave
-Find survivors
-Get suplies
-Escape to the countryside
-Start farming

Anyway, other fantasies:
I'd like to be a musician. As of yet, I haven't really even tried. Maybe doing some electronic music or something.

I'd like to build something, I don't know really what, bunch of ideas, little motivation.

Bustertheclown · Post by **Bustertheclown** » Sun Oct 07, 2007 1:49 am

I also often fantasize about disappearing from the world that knows me, severing all ties, having adventures, and suddenly coming back out of the blue decades later with stories to tell.
