Great feeling!!!

Dups. · Post by **Dups.** » October 7, 2004, 9:53 pm

What gives you a really great feeling besides sex, orgasms , drugs, alcohol or being loved?

For example:

Putting on a shirt or pants straight out of the dryer

A good stretch

Waking up at like 6am! Thinking you have to go to work but you don't. Get up for a piss and the feeling when you get back into bed and your sleeping spot is still warm.

This used to be a great feeling. When EQ was in it's prime. Getting into your car on Friday evening after work and driving on the way home to play Everquest for an entire weekend (even better a long weekend)

Anyone else have some?

Waking up on a day off, stretching, realizing you don't have to get up and snuggling up with your better half in bed while dozing off again.

Speed. No not the drug, driving fast. Preferably in a secure environment.

The feeling you get when you help animals. Yeah so I'm a sucker for animals, sue me.

The feeling after a really really hard workout.

A silly one: Watching a cat groom itself. It is quite possibly the most relaxing thing I can think of.

A bit crude but taking a nice dump that you were holding in for a while is a great feeling

That or a long shower

Driving in my car, weaving through traffic on a 4 lane highway, dominating the road, with my windows open, and my music blasting in 70-75 degree weather with the sun out.

The feeling of freedom to do whatever you want, no obligations.

The feeling you get when you make people laugh.

Taking the first bite of your favorite meal.

Not sure if this counts since it falls into the love catagory, but the unconditional love of a puppy/dog.

The point in a movie or song, where you feel the complete emotion of the singer or scene in the movie. I always got that feeling whenever I sang or listened to Sinatra in New York, New York, at the climax of the song.

The feeling you get when you figure out a problem you've been stumped on for a lengthy time.

And I agree about with EQ in its prime, when you were so excited and pumped and the feeling of accomplishment, or the feeling of wonder as you first entered the world, a huge new place thats just waiting for discovery (for me it was the Everfrost)

Absolutely nutting a drive down the middle of the fairway.

Sticking a wedge 2 feet from the pin.

Knocking in a 30+ foot putt...especially if it is for eagle.

Truant · Post by **Truant** » October 8, 2004, 10:11 am

I get a lot of mine (those that aren't love related) from music. It's something that is very....spiritual for me. (for lack of a better word.

Performing, especially live but not necessarily, with a group that you just really mesh with. Whether that be good friends or just musicians you respect the hell out of. There's nothing like getting lost in a groove, or just being fucking nails on a solo.

I wish I could find that line from the blues brothers films about no drug being able to give you that feeling you get on stage, etc. I'm getting nothing though.

Akaran_D · Post by **Akaran_D** » October 8, 2004, 10:22 am

Dancing to some random song that shouldn't put me in the mood to dance..

Managing people..

Flying through Sears and doing damn near everything in 4 different departments....

Getting those dumb as shit "YOU'RE AWESOME" cards sears employees get as incentives to do a good job...

Getting a difficult chunk of code to work...

Completing an assignment well before it's due date..

Beating a game..

Blasting 25-30mph on my mountainbike dead center northward/southward on the southbound/northbound highway lane as cars hurtle towards me from the distance...

Getting up after recieving a head wound.

God's grace

Fishing... not fly, deep sea or anything just fishing in a pond where all you have to do is watch the little floater bob up and down and it's not important if you catch anything or not

Holding both of my sons at once...

Having my oldest (still only 22 mo.) fall asleep on me while watching a movie

Leading a Fear or Hate break back in the day that went flawless

Seeing someone "get it" whatever "it" may be...

Driving really fast on a road with a lot of curves

Seeing my sons be born... awesome!

Lying in bed holding my wife while we listen to the kids breath

The look on my son's face when I pick him up from day care and we just get home, he won't let me go, Daddy is the most important thing in the world... nothing, on Earth, beats that feeling

Cheers!
Marb

Having the days last cigarette outside at work at about 9 pm after a 13 hour day - knowing I am not doing anymore work for the evening, but I am still riding the clock enjoying this much deserved smoke.

Really having to take a dump, and walking into the bathroom at work crossing my fingers that it will be empty to not only find not a soul in the bathroom, but the entire sports section of the newspaper neatly folded on the metal bar in the largest handicap stall, and being able to drop a deuce in complete silence whilst perusing the latest sports news.

When EQ was good, skipping school and staying home playing it all day. Especially if it was a friday.

Being woken up early by your alarm by accident, and its saturday, you dont have to go anywhere, you can just go back to bed.

Eating my #3 at taco bell with 2 extra crunchy tacos w/o tomatoes, and a cherry coke. Even better when im with my best friend, we both have taco bell, and we're talking about Halo 2 or EverQuest 2...

Snuggling with my girlfriend ^_^

Playing the drums for a straigth 3 hours. And not breaking a head or any sticks.

Coming home on any day, and listening to Anti-flag really loud for a few hours. Always makes me happy

Certain songs, no matter how often I hear them
Certain poems, no matter how often I read them
Praise from a client
wearing my favorite lip gloss
Art galleries
This coffee shop in Houston called Brazil
knitting
my chinchilla when he's happy to see me
finding that unusual piece of clothing that I know I can't live without
the sound of rain when I am snuggled in bed
my boyfriend's massages
connecting with someone intellectually
great food

Standing in the rain or snow along a river feeling the spinner bouncing off the rocks and waiting for it to pause long enough to indicate that I may have a FISH ON and it is time to set the hook.

Feeling the wind blow across my face in a snowy coldness that is offset by a steaming hottub.

I am sure there are more...but it can wait.

Standing in the rain with my eyes closed and my face turned towards the sky.

Coming home from work (I work at sea) after a 5-10 day trip and seeing the harbor lights.

I'll add more as this thread grows!

I love the sound of rain and being in it on a warm day and to breath in and smell the air right after it rains. My favorite color is grey which may sound odd but I relate it to clouds and rain which has the opposite effect of making me happy more than a sunny day.

A long shower when I'm not in a rush to go anywhere.

A day off with no agenda.

getting medium level mindsweeper finished in under 30 sek.

erm .. knowing that i'm going to work tomorrow ranks up there as well.

listening to Angel by Sarah McLachlan, that song just takes me. a reason for quite a few unannounced afk in eq

i just glaze over. memory bound to the song of course.

I went home this past weekend. This is my favorite time of year, and I get all sentimental when I'm at my parents and there's this feeling I get when I'm outside and I can smell the maple trees and the dew on the grass and this candle my mom lights in the evenings that smells like pumpkin....I love it. My favorite feeling in the world....

Whiskey Dick with a talkative Sorority Girl. She'll tell everyone I'm a porn star and can go all night. Truth be told, I fell asleep 10 minutes into the session and peed on her. She thought I was Peter North.
