I should have explained a bit more in detail here. "Monarch" is the supposed codename for a subdivision of the MK-ULTRA mind control program. I think Conspiracy Wiki sums it up best here.


So what had me freaked out was the possibility that I would be kidnapped, then tortured in such an indescribable fashion as to completely lose touch with reality, and then have false personalities implanted within me that could be triggered at any time without my knowledge. I knew that although Monarch was primarily designed to be used on children exceptions were made for anyone with latent psychic potential, and I also knew that my powers in the wrong hands would make me a very useful disposable assassin. I was terrified both of being tortured and of losing any sense of control over my life. (I was terrified these things would happen because of my budding and ill controlled psychic powers.) I can remember years before I sought out treatment joking with some of my fellow "psychic" friends about "One minute your telling a doctor all about the stress of trying to control these powers, and the next minute you are reading Catcher in the Rye and assassinating John Lennon".

Ah, sorry bout the confusion. :ohdear:

I've been thinking about the question of whether AddMeOnFacebook is a talented troll or legit. I can't really tell, but I lean about 80% towards him being semi-legit. Let me tell a little story that may or may not shed some light on this situation, because a few years back people on this very forum were having the exact same conversation about me, for much the same reasons. I was a Conspiracy Theorist trying to steer the board towards the "truth", but not in a (so I thought) blatantly obvious way.

I haven't admitted this before, but what the hell, why not? Prester John is not my first user name on SA. I had an earlier account by the name of Truckin A Man. That account started out with an extremely popular thread about being an OTR Truck Driver, (possibly one of the first very popular threads about truck driving on SA), and ended with a banning after I skipped out on a bunch of bets related to my :swoon: over Ron Paul, to say nothing of the helldumping I (frankly quite rightfully) received. (Yeah, there are gonna be a bunch of embarrassing confessions here.) This was circa 2007 or so, just before LF was created and around when Toberlone Triangular (PBUH) and Paradol Rex were roaming the boards freely. I mention those two in particular because if a poll for the three worst crazypants posters had been taken at the time, I might have scored third behind those two.

You see that although everything in my thread about truck driving was genuine and true, I had an ulterior motive for starting that account. My paranoid mind had identified SA as the most influential board on the internet, and I felt that if the truth could be brought to this board I could spread it through the rest of the internet. But first I needed a popular persona. So I created Truckin A Man and poured my heart and soul into writing that thread about truck driving. (I intentionally mentioned nothing at the time of being a hardcore conspiracy theorist.) It worked better than I expected at first, the thread was a hit.

**Now, I do want to mention here that the thread itself (I believe it was titled "Ask Me about all the dirty little secrets of the Trucking Industry) was written honestly and proved to be massively cathartic for me. (Probably why I later wrote my threads about Cedar Point and more Recently A.C.E.) I didn't lie about anything or exaggerate anything, but I did have a planned agenda in case the thread got popular. (Please don't shoot me guys.)

So when the thread got popular my next tack was to join in other threads every so often and try and tack them towards 9-11 truth and general conspiracy topics. Despite how clever I thought I was being though, you sheeple just wouldn't bite. So I started to change tack to posting :arzy: threads about the US turning into a police state. I rapidly earned the ire of D&D and a flood of (I believe mod imposed because they seldom lasted longer than a day or two) red titles soon followed. This also did not work so I began to become more strident and aggressive. Then the whole Pr0n Haul thing started, and I become convinced that Ron Paul was going to be the next President. (On this one I actually had a vision, I was told that RP would sweep the nation and strike a blow against the Illuminati.)

So I started to dive into LF to defend the good doctor as best I could. This also did not work out at all (you fuckin sheeple) so I started experimenting with posting threads in other parts of SA that dealt with Conspiracy Topics. This resulted in a rapid series of lengthy probations (some as long as a month IIRC), as it seemed the rest of SA had little patience for my bullshit. So I cut that poo poo out rather fast and just focused on D&D and LF. Since I knew for a fact that Ron Paul was going to win, I decided to profit off you saps and started placing wagers about Ron Pauls performance in the Republican Primaries.

Eventually I had a particularly delusional episode and I sort of snapped and started to allude to what I was doing. During this period I posted several things that were essentially "pre gloating" about Ron Pauls impending victory. (Something along the lines of "Ron Paul is going to sweep the nation and I will laugh at you all as your precious arrogant ignoprance is ripped away from you by the tideswell of American Patriotism. You will have all your petty notions about the world swept aside as the Good Doctor ends the Federal Reserve and launches a real investigation into 9-11") This pissed off enough Goons that a helldump was called. A ton of my poo poo was dug up and thrown at me, which I tried to deftly (and completely unsuccesfully) run damage control on. Eventually though I had to admit that I had lost against the helldump, and then Ron Paul performed miserably in a few key primaries and it was me watching my petty notions about the world being ripped away by reality. According to the terms of my wagers I was then banned and Truckin A Man- hosed off to not be heard from again. (Although I lurked, seething, for many months afterwards.)

Does this story relate to AddMeOnFacebook? I can't say for certain, but I wouldn't be surprised if he is actually way deeper into lala-land than he admits to, and is really looking for a chance to steer the conversation here towards "truth" in what he feels is a manner more palatable to Goons than your run of the mill 9-11 truther. I say that becasue I did the exact same poo poo and a great deal of his recent posts remind me of waht I was doing back then. Perhaps this is just a crazy man projecting himself onto others, or perhaps I have a nose for recognizing my own. I can't say for certain myself, but I do hope you all found my little confession here interesting.

That's all incredibly fascinating. I'm really bowled over at how you were really pretty rational at the same time that you were also delusional. It reminds me of how when I was a kid our neighbor was arrested for going after another neighbor with an axe because he believed that other neighbor was an evil wizard who could only be killed by this dinky hardware-store axe. He had been planning it for a long time, but was totally normal and friendly with everybody else, still going to work and mowing the lawn. There was just this one doozy of a specific thing going wrong with him that whole time.

I never found out what was wrong with the dude to make him that way. My parents talked about it being drugs, but I don't know if they knew anything or were just speculating.

Did you have steady employment that whole time? I know you've posted about being homeless and getting back on your feet (your thread about schooling was really great, and I'm really glad you're doing ok). Do you think somebody in the grip of delusions could work a steady 9-5 or still be at all normal about anything?

I was just starting my stint at Cedar Point at the time, which was seasonal, so not really. Truth be told my work history is pretty drat spotty at best. That said at that particular time I was able to somewhat hold employment, but the end of my truck driving career was really brought about by the emergence of a more severe strain of my symptoms than had existed prior. So i was on a downhill trajectory at the time. For most of the time I was actively posting I was unemployed and living off my meager savings while waiting for the next season to start at Cedar Point.


Jack Gladney posted:

Hard to say for certain really, all I can do is comment on my own experiences. I've had delusions of one form or another for pretty much my entire life starting about the age of 14 or so, and I always found it really loving hard to hold down a job. (I was actually generally very punctual and good at my job, the stress just usually built up in me till one day I would jsut snap and quit in a huff.) I only ever had one actual 9-5 and I lasted three weeks at that job, I found the regular hours insufferable. So while I suppose it might be possible for a person in the grip of delusions to hold down a 9-5 job, my personal experience is that the stress of pretending everything is okay builds and builds and builds until one day you snap and do something loving baffling. How long that might take in a given person is probably impossible to say.

Edit: My helldump thread also included real life pictures of me that were taken by my Cedar Point boss (also a Goon) while I was drunk at a company event. So I must have also been willing to work 6 months as a roller coaster ride attendant in order to bolster my cover.

I dunno. Havne't set foot in CP since March of 2012. Parks gone to poo poo from what I hear though, the new management has managed to make things even more hosed up. The "Screamsters" program (haunted houses and the like during halloweekends) has been especially hard hit and is now basically worthless. A shitload of their most experienced monsters quit this year in protest. They actually got so desperate for experienced monsters that despite the fact that I am waaaaaaaaay loving blacklisted at CP (Tried to unionize and that went over about as well as you would expect) and especially loving blacklisted with the Screamsters program they tracked me down over facebook and asked if I would be willing to come work there back in September.

But the arcade is probably safe. Those old arcade machines were the most profitable part of the arcade despite the fact that there was an entire department of people whose main job was to keep all that old poo poo running. (But real pro's get high on the Skyride, the CP police station is probably 40 feet away from that section of the arcade and cops cut through it all the time.)

Again, the realisation that poo poo happens for no good reason and isn't about yourself is fundamental to understanding the world.
