Now, before you jump, remember that "fantasizing" does not necessitate a sexual context. You could fantasize about being MVP on a sports team, finding that special someone, having telekinetic powers, being supreme dictator of the world, etc.

Thence, the questions:
How often do you fantasize?
What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?
Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
What do you fantasize about? Most often?
Why do you fantasize?

Constantlly, whenever I'm awake.

I am right now.

Poll added.

The whole world is my fantasy.

How often do you fantasize?
Lots, but it does depend on what I'm doing, i've found it dangerous to fantasize whilst driving, for instance.

What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?
Depends on the person, their age and their needs. Me, burst of a few minutes at a time, e.g. when driving home, walking on my own etc. gives me some time.

Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
Darn right it is, otherwise we'd go bonkers. It kind of lets off steam. Sometimes its not that good, though, I often think about what it'd be like if my kids were kidnapped or something, and that ends up with me being in a bit of a Rambo rage (in my head, not in the real world), or just really sad which is sometimes difficult to stop suddenly. You should be able to separate reality from fantasy, most definetely.

What do you fantasize about? Most often?
Wimmin (OK, normally nekkid), having a forcefield, dancing, all sorts of stuff. living in the middle ages when the world was less environmentally f.u.b.a.r'd.

Why do you fantasize?
Why not? My brain just does it, it lets you do things you can't do in real life.


So Saipea, what are your answers to this question???????

living in the middle ages when the world was less environmentally f.u.b.a.r'd.


And instead you could die of starvation or any number of easily treatable diseases by the time you were 38. Good times, eh? ;)

However many times I come across a complete asshole deserving of a grenade shoved in their mouth.

Ouch.

I fantasise mainly about sex, love, and ridiculously ambitious artworks and publicity stunts that I might theoretically do. I take about an hour a day maybe?

However many times I come across a complete asshole deserving of a grenade shoved in their mouth.

So probably not all that often then, really

So probably not all that often then, really

You'd be suprised :p

Every minute I'm awake.

However many times I come across a complete asshole deserving of a grenade shoved in their mouth.

You fantasize of orally penetrating assholes?

1) whenever I can

2) whenever you can get away with it

3) if having sex all day with every woman I see is unhealthy well I don’t want to be healthy :D

4) power and love with just a hint of what I should of done

5) because its fun and occupies you for the long walk home

How often do you fantasize?
Nearly my entire my life

What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?
Less than I do, but deffinately more than nothing.

Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
To a point, You must try to keep fantasy from Reality, but yes or else I would have commited suicide in 5th grade.

What do you fantasize about? Most often?
Sex, and then being Ruler of the World, or at least the half with nukes

Why do you fantasize?
Why not, anyway its how I keep sane at school.

I love to flex my imaginative muscles (that would be my brain).

*fantasizes about the world domitaing plan I have, and watching it grow into fulfillment.*

a lot.

1. I don't fantasize during the daytime, however, my brain seems to have the tendency of fantasizing as I'm about to fall asleep.

2. Depends on the person, or moreso the situation of the person.

3. I think like anything else as long as it doesn't become dysfunctional it is fine. I.E. You fantasize about being with somebody and create a false connection with that person is an unhealthy level.

4. My Future

5. Because ???

*fantasizes about the world domitaing plan I have, and watching it grow into fulfillment.*

a lot.

Yeah, that's one of my most common fantasies: world domination.
mwuahahaha. ha.

How often do you fantasize?

Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
What do you fantasize about? Most often?
Why do you fantasize?
i spend most of my time fantasizing. if i could be payed for day-dreaming (as i prefer to call it) i would be incredibly successful.

yeh, as long as you don't start deluding yourself with it into believing it's real. last year i spent a lot of time on a particularly long drawn-out and non-specific day-dream where my flatmate left her boyfriend, who i thought wasn't good enough for her, and then told me that actually she'd like to be with me. i became very depressed because rationally i realised that it could never happen but i kept on thinking how happy i might be if it did.

mostly i day-dream about conversations i might have with people, or other ways in which a conversation i have had could have happened if i could go back and have them again. also, i day-dream about ways of bringing about my ideal society and what it would be like and how i might bring others, particularly my friends, around to my point of view. i very rarely have sexual fantacies - i think my sexual imagination has been ruined by porn.

i day-dream because i know that most of the things i'd like to do or would like to see happen won't, at least not in the way i want.

I think a better question would be, "How often DON'T you fantasise?".
I can answer that: Once or twice a day. Rest of the time, I'm in my own little world. wheeeeee....

Well, mainly during school.

So Saipea, what are your answers to this question???????
What about those of us who go bonkers anyway? I think my constant fantasizing has sort of disorienting effect, like I'm not quite in phase with this world but stuck in one of my own creation. I cannot help but wonder "what if" about many situations. Whether it's healthy or not is immaterial; I'd do it anyway. Just occurs naturally. I fantasize about embracing my darker side actually to make things better. Sorta like fighting evil with evil. I've had premonitions about women I know, and a couple I don't. Those were dreams, though, if those count. My entire array of perspectives is based on the fantasies in which I constantly live.

[edit: What the hell does f.u.b.a.r stand for!?:confused: ]

Judging by the white padded walls that surround me, I'd say quite often.

ahh..that padded white wall is actually one of your fantasies. You really don't want to know where you are, Mr. Brain-in-a-jar.

You'd be suprised :p
Very, very surprised.

When I'm bored, all the time. ;)

Lots. About an hour a day.

Mmmm! I think there is nothing wrong with fantisizing, so long as it does not interfear with your regular life.

1.How often do you fantasize?
How often...ugh, more than I ought to. Every other minute, really.

2. What do you think a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?
Well, I can't really clock it very accurately, but I'd say fantasizing whenever you're bored really isn't unhealthy.

3. Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
As long as it isn't an obsession. Don't dwell on things you don't have yet; work on getting 'em. And if you can't get 'em, (as in something VIRTUALLY impossible,) just enjoy the fantasies, don't start to live/rely on them.

4. What do you fantasize about? Most often?
My future, sometimes. But more often than not, it's all about being someone else...how depressing is that? :(

5. Why do you fantasize?
Because I can enjoy it, I guess. That, and it lets me live the kind of life I want, away from the one I have. (That probably sounds more depressing than I want it to, but oh well. :rolleyes: )

However many times I come across a complete asshole deserving of a grenade shoved in their mouth.

You should play a game called The Punisher :D

Hell, I fantasise alot. There. I said it.

Its good for you. Excersizing the imagination no doubt. Good for the sex drive. If you don't fantasise, you have everything you need. Good to see the poll agrees with me.:rolleyes:

Hey! Get out of my daydream!

How often do you fantasize?
Since I lack the abillity to control my mind is works 24 7 clock around

What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?
Fantasizing 24 7 like me isn't for the weak minded, sometimes it's anoying and sometimes I don't even notice but I think that at least two or three hours aday would do the trick

Is it "healthy" to fantasize?
HELL, YES!

What do you fantasize about? Most often?
Anything, Everything and All things... But it's my mind that desides the theam and/or the idea in process

Why do you fantasize?
Believe it or not but it's my job...

Every time I read the newspaper.

My mind's too vivid not to fantasize/dream/think about things.

I do it constantly.

All the universe is but a fleeting fantasy in my mind. Beware it's end.

How often do you fantasize?

Only when I'm awake, and not completely focussed on something else. Which means, most of the time.

What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?

I'm not sure. See my next answer.

Is it "healthy" to fantasize?

Yes, it helps me hang on to what remains of my sanity. As long as I know what is and isn't real, I see no problem.

What do you fantasize about? Most often?

Various things. I imagine having super-powers. I think about what if I had made different choices. Lately, I've been mentally living in the nations I'm creating for NS and thinking about how it would compare/contrast to the real world.

Why do you fantasize?

Because RL is boring. On my job, I have periods where it's mentally stimulating, but also long periods where it's boring. Ditto for my home life, my commute to and from work, etc. If I don't get enough mental stimulation, I start creating my own.

The ability to fantasize and lift our selves out of the mundane is a wonderful gift

How often do you fantasize? All the time

What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing? As often as possible, so long as you don't disrupt reality.

Is it "healthy" to fantasize? Of course.

What do you fantasize about? Most often? Sometimes it's absolutely weird stuff, whatever happens to pop into my head. Mostly though it's Tolkienesque mythology of my own design.

Why do you fantasize? Add some spice to my mostly boring life.

Afuckinlot. Mostly about front row seats at a Stones concert in the 60s, or behind the wheel of a Plymouth Road Runner in the 60s, or killin VietCong in the 60s...

alot... a whole lot... now pardon me, the orcs are pounding on the door and I need to cast my fireball to clear the way... where is that magic rod... N A P A L M... ahh this is it...

Most of the time. :)

If you REALLY fantasize, you polymorph them into sheep, then regret not turning them into sexy elven ladies. All without realizing you could just polymorph them from sheep into sexy elven ladies.

I just fantasized about Sinuhue a minute ago. *sigh*

Why?

I just thought I'd bring her up-things were certainly more interesting when she was around.

I fantasise probably every day... when I'm falling asleep, when I wake up, when I'm bored, when I'm in certain moods...
I fantasize about sex (probably most prevalent subject of fantasies...), the future and spending time with people, and having conversations with people (with them aim of sorting out thoughts in my head).

I didn't make you do a thing!

you moved or blinked or something else lewd to draw my attention.

I fantasise a lot, mostly about career-related stuff...where I'd like to be working, the people I'd like to be working with, that kind of thing. I daydream about one day getting that PhD I'd always strived for. I imagine myself in the future - would I have the same friends, job, house etc.

I tend not to fantasise much about sexual or other personal things, probably as there's nothing in particular I want to change about my personal/sex life. There is other stuff though, but I can't think of it right now.

I fantasize about a great variety of things. For instance, today I was fantasizing about speaking with an interviewer asking me questions about my views on specific issues as I was running for the Presidency as a Libertarian. =/

Why?

I just thought I'd bring her up-things were certainly more interesting when she was around.
Yeah, I know. I remember a few good threads with both of you in them. Made for good, on-topic conversation for me to spam with loosely related information/remarks. That was prolly about a thousand posts ago. Good times.
Ha! Now I'm measuring time in posts! What's next?

No, she wasn't. I was watching from a distance so great I couldn't post at the time, but I noticed she never moved once. She's just so damned beautiful you couldn't help yourself.:eek: ;)

*suspenseful music*

I'm living in fantasy land right now! =)

well I've got 45 minutes of german to "pay attention" or something like that, and math which I need to pay attention to but I only do about half the time and the car ride to school. Even when I'm drving sometimes, damn now I'll never get my license...

HA! That's what I did in German and Calculus. And they were my best classes, along with the other five, that is. :p I loved being able to pay no attention at all in any of my classes and still pull A's. Even better was Physics. Sometimes I didn't even have to turn stuff in and I got credit for it. My teachers always did love me.
*a single tear falls in nostalgia* (oops, forgot I'm psychologically incapable of crying)

Thence, the questions:
How often do you fantasize?More or less constantly.What do you think is a "healthy" amount of time to be fantasizing?Uhm.. The exact amount of time that makes the individual happy.Is it "healthy" to fantasize?Yups.What do you fantasize about? Most often?Anything & Everything. Most often? Sex, I think.Why do you fantasize?Because I want to.

So Saipea, what are your answers to this question???????

I fantasize on average 1.5 hour a week-day and about 2.5 hours a weekend-day.

I think I fantasize more than average, but I think (in this case) what's natural for me is also what's healthy for me. On the other hand, fantasizing less than 1 hour a week doesn't seem very healthy to me.

I fantasize most about having control over the country in which I live (U.S.), the course of current events, and/or the general direction of humanity. Hypothetical Pinky & the Brain plots are my usual fantasy. Supernatural abilities, e.g. telekinesis, telepathy, and mind control are other favorites of mine, though they usually are used in conjunction with my world domination imaginings. Also, in mundane situations I might fantasize in order to make things more interesting (e.g. cars exploding on all sides of me on the freeway.) Sexual fantasies are my nighttime indulgences... I could be think of you. :D

I guess I fantasize for two reasons: to forget that I have no control over the unfortunate course of American politics, current events, humanity, etc., and to liven things up when I'm doing something boring.

I spent a whole hour today fantasizing about this girl I know, and I have to confess, I can barely walk now. :D

NationStates is my fantasy.

Yes, all of you -- your "meetups", your nations, the coding, the arguments, the debates, the mods, IRC -- all of you are part of my imagination. Even your lives outside of NS are all just built into my mind, part of the largest fantasy ever designed.

One day I'll wake up, and *boof* -- you people will cease to exist. Like that. :D

I swear, if I ever materialise outside your fantasy world, I'll make you see just what it feels like. Bet you won't like a foot full of metal :mad:

That's interesting. I don't actually fantasise about that though...I just like to make the DM squirm. I actually hate elves so much, no one actually plays them anymore because I'll mock them contantly. Also my half-orc cleric once refused to heal an unconsious elf, instead casting enlarge person on herself and puting the elf in an enlarged sack, then tossed him to a bunch of orcs. Heh heh...that was the best PC non-death exit ever...

To be honest, I hadn't really fantasized about THAT before, but that follows the fantasy protocols: they always work out to your benefit, but not usually with the most pleasant results or the outcome you think you most desire.

:D

Yes, yes... *pets fantasy creature in his unconscious mind*
LOL Silly pseudo-(Doctor Moreau).

I presume you don't care to share one of your more prevalent fantasies, then?
Haha, I think I'd get banned or deleted....

Haha, I think I'd get banned or deleted....
Yeah, prolly. That's too bad. It's just a little harmless fantasy you've already had, after all. But then there are the 14-year-olds running rampant in NSG. Can't forget them. Certainly wouldn't want them reading any of those.:eek:

Every second I am on NS do I fantasize about running a country. :p

Every second I am on NS do I fantasize about running a country. :p

Hahaha.

All the time

About going to Afghanistan and introducing a few wife beating taliban to a 25mm LAV shell.
ABout have teh dirty bum sechs with hot women
About having a YZFR-1 and passing every tool on the road.
About owning a Sun Microsystems E25 Sun Fire as my personal computer.

Not at my excessively middle-aged age.
Depressions can be contagious, you know?

I think it'd be more fun to emulate Vlad the Impaler when dealing with enemies.

Yes, I do know. Simply sarcasm, that's all. I usually don't mean exactly what I say.

Life without imagination? What a terrible thought that would be. People like that are dangerous. Unfortunately, they tend to think it's the other way around...

The teasing with the icecreams in the shopping centre was fun too... tip of my warm tongue slowly licking up the balls of icecream...

Yeah, and the melodious hint of laughter to accompany the coy sparkle in the eyes....I can almost hear the five-foot Swede saying, "Randy, you're encoragable." in that 20's/30's fashion she has....
