How did i find this? Warning, read at risk of loony attack

Very very sorry to all concerned but somehow in my web surfing i found this website

http://www.evpreversespeaking.com/about-me/

and i was perplexed beyond all belief and sanity to find such garbage. Nevertheless, there is some funny stuff there about Michael Shermer and James Randi. So i wanted to share it with this forum community and garner opinions about how **** this stuff actually is.

Don't enjoy!

You're right, there's no scientific evidence at all to suggest there's anything wrong with laughing at mental illness. In fact, if you claim to be 'garnering opinions', you could probably pass it off as 'research'.

I read some of this, and truthfully, I found it incredibly sad. If this lady would only get help for her mental health problems, she might be able to use her intelligence and abilities constructively. But somehow I doubt it will happen...

Ooh, 10 points for me. I knew as soon as I read her little biographical sketch that she would claim Randi is a psychic.

I personally liked the "How to Control Anyone!" web ad on her site ...

Here's a video I found of her:

I AGREE




You know the feeling you get when giant centipedes are crawling over your skin one by one, and you just have to sit and watch them sort of wave their feelers around?

No?

Okay, I don't either, but that's GOT to be how it felt to watch this video. This woman is absolutely creepy and disturbing. Also, is it just me, or do some of the EVP links sound just a little too clear? Never ascribe to paredolia that which can be better explained by sitting around with a tape recorder in the basement.

ETA:I'm sorry. I can't ever get YT links to work... it's clearly the influence of the reptile people... anyway, the direct link is here.

Did anyone notice the rather large occurrance of words like "scat" and "s***" in the readings?

I think the othersiders might just need to take a dump in one of our toilets or something. Maybe if we could figure out a way to let them drop their para-loads off in our realm, they might peacefully move on to the reptile planet kingdom?

Which reminds me. You'd think if there were ghosts and aliens we would see more paraturds as evidence. I've yet to see a spook pop up on infrared with the Ghost Hunters, squatting in a corner to squeeze one out ...

WTF? What kind of instrument determines the truth?

Geeze Louise. I'll take the centipedes.


Hi Goddess, long time no talkies.




All that was wrong with your Youtube linky was some line breaks between the tags and the alphanumeric bit.


Cheers
