*Ordered collective subconscious poll*

[Woodsman]

An experiment to provide potential insight into an ordered collective subconscious.

Directions: Just vote on which direction you "feel" my backyard lies relative to my house being the point of origin.

After I have a sufficient number of votes (depending upon popularity of this post), I will tell everyone which direction it really is.

My prediction is that the direction answered most often will be the right answer.

Please no cheating (for those of you able - and there are a few here).

This question reminds me of playing Zork back in the day. I think the bigger question is, when you're in the middle of the dark room without the flashlight, which way do you need to go in order to avoid walking into the mouth of a hungry grue?

Honesty is the key. The way to tap into this collective subconscious is through being honest with yourself but first we have to practice humility.

Humility and honesty to the core....pretty much the exact opposite direction humanity has been taking for long,long time.

The Sioux have a ceremony involving what is called a yusupi man. Basically someone who can invoke spirits by dying within himself. Not physical death but mind death.

Thanx for reminding me of this.

If you google yusupi you will interestingly enough find something about a spiritual person in Indonesia.

Very true.

Interesting.

Literal translation of Yusupi: 'to make hail with the hands'

i voted West

[nowonmai]

Toward the smell of wee.

Toward the smell of wee.

That would be correct, but I have a back porch and front porch and don't even need a porch to piss off of. You would get dizzy.

That would be my prediction too since you live in the Northern hemisphere and therefore there's a significantly higher likelihood that your house is South-facing. So North is also my guess.

Someone told me about a town in New Zealand (can't remember which one) that was all designed in Scotland before it was built, and the planners forgot to take into account that it was going to be built in the Southern hemisphere. So all the houses are South-facing and nobody gets any sun.

well i seem to remember you live up north and for some reason i imagine you the type that would enjoy the sun streaming through your front windows in the morn or hanging languorously in the sky above a backporch alte afternoon bbq.

so i picked east. it was more my mind's eye that true randomness or intuition tho. that shit is all horseshit duh.

[Fansy]

lol and im a bit stupid right now otherwise i woulda picked west. so take one from east and MOVE IT TO WEST
