It was a routine Facebook chat going on and well, I  kind of sabotaged the same. Why I sabotaged is irrelevant even to me but  how I did that was an interesting play of words. I occasionally punched  in a vulgar slang in censored fashion i.e. F off. Interestingly, no one  noticed or lets say everyone ignored at the first go. I repeated and  the response from all of them was a full blown fit of rage hurled at me.  Another interesting thing I observed was that I continued the same  slang and it was a befitting reply to all their remarks thereafter. I  stopped and showed them this was just an experiment to test the power of  slang. What happened next was irrational and unexpected. They planned  out on a GPL and my butt was whipped by their soles. I tolerated it as a  revenge of the guinea pig on the scientist. Anyways the conclusions are  baffling.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="Body"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="Body"&gt;One, human mind can be swayed in any direction by  offending it. A short word of offense repeated on it can control it  almost fully. Two, the mind always looks for something out of the  natural way that does not require to be paid any attention. In midst of  any conversation, a chain reaction can be triggered by any diabolical,  irrational or even an insane comment that calls for no reaction from a  mind seriously engrossed into some serious stuff. Finally, and rather a  funny conclusion, best results of a mind game can be obtained when your  samples are unaware of the fact they are being experimented upon. Though  as in my case, the repercussions can be severe when they come to know  about this. Another conclusion could be that maximum people lose their  cool even in silly occasions- I don’t draw it as a result cause it’s  specific to the kind of persons they are. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="Body"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="Body" style="padding-bottom: 0pt;"&gt;A word of advice- as I  did, when in such a situation, submit yourself to the rustics hungry for  vengeance because when they think about it in calm state of mind,  they’ll realize their folly and guilt. I am a sadist, I sure am...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/450460445422720988-221196937743721153?l=brainassassin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://brainassassin.blogspot.com/feeds/221196937743721153/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://brainassassin.blogspot.com/2011/08/mind-chain-reaction.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/450460445422720988/posts/default/221196937743721153'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/450460445422720988/posts/default/221196937743721153'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://brainassassin.blogspot.com/2011/08/mind-chain-reaction.html' title='MIND-CHAIN REACTION'/><author><name>Ishaan Sood</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02623254313667245410</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jJo1GHXahU4/Tkk-XDVrh7I/AAAAAAAAAAM/107lES52FN8/s72-c/MindPower2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
