When I do something daily, I will stop and imagine myself as a sloth. Hear me out. If I was a sloth, time would still move as fast as it always does and I would be, of course, slower at doing my tasks. So my thought process would look like this: "..If I was a sloth...would I be at school or just getting dressed? Or would I still be getting out of bed......?" Now, you may be thinking, "How did you even think of such a thing??" I'll tell you. In the movie Zootopia, Nick and Judy go to the DMV and encounter the sloths who work there. I guess when I watched this as a kid, I thought to myself, "If someone ended up typing in the code alongside Flash, what parts would Flash have completed by the time that person finished?", or something along those lines. And I guess this thought just stuck with me in the back of my mind.
Another thought I constantly have happens during a long car ride. I picture a 2D figure on a bike, biking alongside the car. The figure never slows down and never speeds up. Just keeps biking in time with the vehicle. I always imagine a rope connecting this figure to the side of my family's car- almost like they were water skiing. Since this figure is 2D, I imagined they would jump over anything that got in their path and would not fall. If I imagined they fell off their bike, they would reset like a video game character. Before you ask, I don't know why I think of this and I don't know when I started thinking about this. I do, however, like to think that this 2D character is trying to get to their own destination, but they are just stuck in a time loop, biking alongside my family's car.
Those are my two crazy thoughts. I hope you enjoyed reading whatever this post was. :)
I do the same thing in the car with the biker. Sometimes if I have a toy bike or car I will hold it up close to my eye and make it look like it's racing beside our car. P.S. The telephone wires on the sides of old highways make for great ramps!
