i also agree with Abno 6. you dont seem to be grinding your teeth or show any signs of using heavy drugs. But even if you were to smoke a little weed, it would expand your conciousness so you could go deeper. dont listen to most of the hating ass people. They are mad at something else going on in their life and they decide to take it out on you.
people should video him counterarguments, good or bad, instead of typing them, this is what he wants. anyway, your first 2 seconds on this one are funny Ian.
all your doing is making a video telling us what everybodies human mind knows. When you enjoy yourself time passes quickly. When your bored time passes slowly..... watching ur videos for example, take a long time. This will be the last i will watch. Ive only watched 1 other and in both u luk stoned. Keep off the drugs!!
I really wish you would slow your mind down. Your thoughts are racing and you tend to babble in ways some dont understand. if you could slow yourself down, and speak clearly, you'd be surprised how many people would start listening closer to you, and what you have to say. think about it...
Ever heard of the theory of relativity? You act like you discovered it. Get over yourself already. While you think the masses are behind you, they're miles (and decades) ahead. Stop taking drugs. You are bringing up the rear and patting yourself on the back for it. It's quite embarrassing actually.
Others who have not seen any of your vids would most likely say that you are high. I havn't seen any of your other stuff, I'd say you're a deep thinker...
you touched on something for a second that i have been thinking, i think time is a physical plane that our universe is expanding through, diff. areas of space go through time at diff. rates, i.e. dark matter IS time and we are passing through it as a universe, the time was there before the big bang now we are flowing through it.
time and distance are a shared belief in limitation. their role in our human evolution is about to change; to end. time is ever speeding to a zero point in which we realize that all thinks/things happen at once and we become aware that we are entirely in control of our every experience.
"Fissed" or "Fizzed" (sp?) Either way, I like that as a verb. Loved that long, wide-eyed pause, as well. It's great that you seem to not be afraid to express yourself genuinely.
I think I understand what you're getting at when trying to explain time and how it can be percieved differently when thinking in terms of objective and subjective reality.
And to help you out: A lightyear is the distance light travel's in a certain amount time which, if I'm correct, is an actual solar year.
k really to the person who insulted me earlier what kind of freak are you correcting peoples grammer on the internet who cares people use slang and i don't much care if i use their they're or there when i talk so really go eviscerate yourself with a clam shell uh but ya ian you really should go take some college courses so you can expand on what you know and be able to understand somethings better
Well, yes. To them, it really isn't about what's correct or not, it's about Ian. As for their, I find that I often type phonetically and misspell things I really do know how to spell. Some other things I don't know how to spell. And for somebody to seriously argue that "fruitful" doesn't have to refer to actual fruit, but the "fruit" must, is being very silly. It's not about the words. It's about Ian.
the earth spins on a magnetic axis, it moves continuousley, the self propelling magnetic ring electric generator moves on the same principle, the earth is natures version which proves it is possible to create self sustained energy resources, nature is doing it constantly, planes leave jet polloution scars across the sky, birds pass stool and it fertilises the plants, see the difference. people had out technology before but they chose NOT to use it, because of the problems it brings. Gauranga!
Interesting thoughts, but WHY POST THEM ON YOUTUBE?! Please - and this goes out to all of you little philosophers - stop posting your ramblings! Here I was, just surfing youtube for fun, and suddenly this shows up, and I think "Hell, why not take a peek?" And what do I see when I click? Some guy rambling on and on and on and on...talk about disappointment! Please SOMEBODY save us from these ramblers! PLEASE!
Ian, you might be interested in knowing that a little bit of what you are talking about is not entirely nonsense, and I mean no offense. In medicine, particularly in the treatment of Parkinsonism, there is a novel treatment approach using embryonic nigral cell implants. Reaction time and movement time analysis, validated quantitative measures of pre-movement neural processing and motor execution, can be used as objective physiological markers of motor performance in those with the disease!
omg, I am out of time! Time flies when I'm having fun and sex with myself! it is a mystery. Time travel takes too long, thought travel is instantenious, so I think a lot about going here and there, 'n' ya no, I even suffer jet lag sometimes. Wanna rendez-vous in Casablanca at Rick's? Bogart and BeCall will be there! bonjour, mes amis de voyage!
I tried to get time to move faster watching this video, but unfortunately, it wasted exactly the same amount of time as I was afraid it would. That is time I will NEVER get back! You need to stop smoking pot and do something positive with your TIME!
Dude what the FUCK are you talking about? You think wayyyyy too much. And you don't make any sense, even if it, SOMEHOW makes sense to you. hahaha... holy shit man.
can it not also be true that the inverse of your description, holding/pausing/ the passing of time while you pysically speed-up?
I like your video's because they reveal to me that, you know you have to share something...a most important message, I believe you'll agree....we are becoming aware, be proud to help...
I feel like when I'm really engaged -- not distracted, but mentally and spiritually and physically involved -- time lasts longer. when there's more meaning in my activity, I get more out of time.
If you don't have an innate curiosity about other humans and love, then,... you are living a life of a robot. Space and time is as logical or mechanical as it gets. Everything exists because we do.
They aren't mutually exclusive. Sorry to burst your bubble but everything does Not exist because we do, everything Existed before us and Everything will Exist after we are gone.
Let me make this clear, and please, don't take the language as a personal attack but...
Who the FUCK cares or would say "THINGS" exist if we're not here to perceive it???
There is a difference between people and things. We come first, before things. A lot of people have just a liiiiiiittle bit of trouble understanding this. You haven't bursted my bubble. You burst your own by the way you think.
haha ian been awhile a gain since i watched one of your videos... your cheese finally fell off the cracker.
but ill give you this at 5:44 i saw a edit cut. when did you start editing your videos lol. has anyone ever told you the things you are trying to figure out dont mean anything except to you? we all have your own journey and its different for everyone. you are cought in some mental loop
look at the top of the time finger on your clock, then look at the middle of it while still having the top of it available to sight. You will notice a gradual change in perceived speed.
I dunno...Ian says time speeds up the closer you get to something. I was sitting pretty close to the monitor, but it seemed like this video was *TWICE* as long as 8:49. It had to be! Man, I must be in some wierd space/time continuum or bizarro world.
Time is an illusion, it is just another form of the illusion of space. Time and space have the same dynamics. Time is meaningless in space! Whose clock do you use?
yes and no! yours is based on the time it takes the earth to revolve around the sun ie. one day/24 hours. In other parts of the galaxy planets with different sizes and orbits might take longer to ROTATE so our time would be obsolete in that respect. I work for myself so time is pretty much what I make of it. I don't need a cuckoo to tell me when someone is losing track...?
Dude, I feel compelled (not actually doing so until now) to correct individuals who make a blatantly obvious mistake in their posts. I certainly do not mean any disrespect in doing so.
It does not take 24 hours for the Earth to revolve around the Sun. It takes one year (365 days) for the Earth to revolve around the Sun. The Earth revolves on its own axis in a period of 24 hours.
That's fascinating, Matt, but I took seventh grade science too. Now how is that possible when you never once saw me in class, right? Well, here's the thing - I went to a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SCHOOL than you did! In fact, Matt, it turns out that there are MANY different schools located ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY! I've even heard that some FOREIGN countries have schools of their own! I'm not making this up!!!
Interestingly, someone on planet X at 5 million light-years from Earth sees the Earth as it was 5 million years ago. At the same time, someone on Earth sees the Earth as it is right now. If you could travel from the Earth to X in a very short time, then the Earth would suddenly be seen 5 million years younger to you.
Great observation! Interestingly, everything we see in the universe is really a picture of the past. The closer we get to anything we closer we become to the present moment. That is the essence of time travel, it is not so much about time, but how fast we get there...
You really should go to college and study Physics. You have an extreme fascination with this stuff. It's great that you're able to educate us here on YouTube with your knowledge. Seriously, you could become a Professor or something. You're extremely smart!
I was feeling a correlation between distance and speed, but the metaphor didn't fruit in this video. i considered not putting it up because the thought was tangent. chill out
Fruit IS a verb. It is very commonly used as such, especially by horticulturalists. Also, tangent IS an adjective. Really! Maybe somebody else should write Ian's book.
"It didn't fruit," is also correct. Sorry. I listen to gardening show, and the dude uses it that way all the time. Also, the online dictionary I checked just before my comment confirmed it. And, tangent means, "touching on a single point." Ian's usage may be correct, if that's what he meant.
There is a subtle difference in the fruition/fruit examples. If you're talking about something reaching fruition, you are talking about the fruit (noun). If you're talking about something fruiting, you're talking about that which produces the fruit. It is not clear to me whether Ian was using the verb correctly because I don't know if he meant that his metaphor failed to produce fruit or if it failed to become a fruit.
That is also a definition of the word, I see. If you cared to look up "fruit" in that same dictionary, you will find the verb. Yes, it is always fruitless arguing with one such as you.
What I mean is that you have great difficulty in admitting that you are wrong. I wanted to say you never admit you're wrong, but I did see you do it once. I was stunned, and thought that perhaps you were human. Alack a day! (Alack a day does have alternate spellings, I believe, but I didn't check before this post).
You guys are actually arguing over the semantics of "fruit" and "tangent" when both of you know that Ian doesn't know shit about semantics and just spouted those as randomly as he always does when he butchers the English language? Jesus Bobblehead Christ...
--verb 7. to bear or cause to bear fruit: a tree that fruits in late summer; careful pruning that sometimes fruits a tree.
"fruit" as a verb applies to trees and is not interchangeable with "come to fruition." Ian incorrectly used the word even though it is a verb. Unless he meant it didn't grow pears, apples, oranges, avocado, etc.
Sure it is used as a verb, but only when talking about trees producing fruit. Ya know darn well Ian misused the word. It really is OK to stop worshipping him for 5 seconds; long enough to consider how uneducated and ignorant he really is.
But I DID agree with you, it IS a verb as you pointed out, but Ian didn't use it correctly. When used as a verb, it pertains to and only to trees or plants bearing fruit. You like me because although we're vastly different in many ways, in the ways we are alike...we're incredibly alike. Well, that and you dig birdies, too!
Geez, Ian - trying to communicate with you is kinda like talking to a brick that thinks it's the Great Wall of China.
I'll bet if you did a past-life regression you'd discover you were some nameless 14th century ragpicking opium addict, raving outside the walls of an observatory until someone finally tired of your bullshit and shot you with an arrow.
"Time is the moving image of eternity". Plato said this. There is no time in reality; it is referred to as a dimension. The three dimensions of space are not an element of reality either, there is only a single universal truth which is perceivable from a number of dimensions. "Time flies" or "time stands still", these are true in as literal a sense as the rate by which the hands of a clock move: this is because you do not perceive time, time is a metaphorical means by which to perceive truth.

I think you're right, that time is a measurement of movement, though I think it is the "quantum movement," not so much the "accelerative." If literally nothing moves in any way, time stops. If you could move every bit of matter, space, and energy (and whatever else there may be) to a previous arrangement, you would go back in time. And you would create an eternal loop!
Great point of view what do you think about. If you slow down time well listening too a timed video but as you said like no movement or being veryvery calm
Loved your view of geography viewing the stream then getting closer man you had me
Does time actually speed up, or do you just forget about time. I do not believe that time revolves around us, we revolve around time (not necesarily clock time, but instead solar and lunar cycles). We can't disconect from time because we are enveloped in time and our bodies are trained and formed around the cycles of the sun. Clocks are nice to check every once and a while, but they should not be trusted. Unfortunately, that is virtually impossible to do in this day and age...
Look at the stars with just your eyes and it is difficult to detect changes over a few minutes. But if you look through a good telescope one has to use a motorized drive to stay fixed on a star. Magnification also magnifies movement. I doubt if we are conscious of small movements on a quantum level since the eye constantly moves as we study an object.
TheDakkster? Well now, haven't you proven yourself to be quite the hypocritical little bitch, returning here to Crossland's channel. I guess your ratings must be low, and you're hoping for some exposure by association. What a whore.
Meh, drama drama drama... Don't you ever get enough of it? I did. Who the fuck has the energy to bother with this shit seriously?
Actually, nowadays I really don't understand how I could get so up in arms about anything said on YouTube, especially by an oblivious bullshitter such as Ian.
My ratings low? I dunno, haven't checked my videos in weeks. Never cared about that, never will care. Talk about missing your mark with that insult. You have my sympathy. Chill.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Dude I dont know what the fuck your problem is, but if ya wanna pick a fight, you kicked the wrong fuckin dog,Boy,I remember who you are, and you aint shit, you never have been shit, you pick on IAN,BUT you are a pussy,this Texan would love to have a chance to stomp your goddamn fucking head in, Im calling you out, you foreign piece of shit
My my, aren't you a lovely, fat, little bigot? Pikcing a fight? On YouTube? Ooooooh, I'm soooo scared! Expecially when an idiot such as you is the one making threats. Boo fucking hoo. You're calling me out? About what?
Let me drop some of your style on yourself. You know, bigoted bullshit. The only way a Texan would be able to catch me would be if he had a gun, because you Texans are all obese. Oh wait, you all already have guns. My bad.
well mr dakkster, be that as it may,Im still calling your punk ass out, your what I call an internet tough guy,you insult people like me and Ian. but you know and I know you know,that you would never and could never ,back your words up in person
Except I do it all the time. You don't get that, I understand, but I'm always calling it as I see it, no matter the place or situation. If someone in the same room as me is acting like an idiot, I tell that to them and I also tell them why they're an idiot. No, I haven't gotten my head stomped in yet, as you so eloquently put it.
I'm also curious about why you're such a bigot. You weild the word "foreign" as if it's a heavy insult. Why? I'm guessing that you've never been outside of the US, except maybe to Mexico, but then again, Texas is virtually Mexico anyway, what with all the Mexicans working in Texas already. Why are you so hostile against other nationalities?
you know whats funny,I use to be a fan of yours, until I saw how you bad mouthed IAN,as for comment about Texas rapidly becoming,unfortunately you are right about that,as for you holding strong opinions, thats nothing to me,as I hold strong opinions.liKE WED Should be legalized, btw is being a pothead the reason why you dont like IAN
No, I don't like him because he's stupid and says a lot of stupid things. I have a problem with stupid people, you being one of them.
You said I was "an internet tough guy" and I said that I call people out on bullshit regardless of place or situation. Now suddenly that's nothing to you?
I know it's too much to ask, but you don't happen to see how stupid the things you say are, huh?
you like the drama dont you, are the internet tough guy thing,lets face it ,you'd never say shit face to face, we all know it,so I moved on,as for me being stupid, maybe I am,but so are you ,because stupid knows stupid
Do you understand english .saying shit face to face ,is not saying shit over the computer,its meeting someOone and talking shit in person,which I know you would never have the balls to do, no matter how much shit you talk over the net, the sad fact is ,you better ask somebody and you'd get the same answer every damn time,
Tex, I can't say anything to your face, because you are in Texas and I am in Sweden. We have a distance problem. What I am saying is that, over here in Sweden, whenever I come across someone who's acting stupid, I say "shit" to their face. I tell them how and why they are stupid and why it would be good if they change their ways. If I come across someone on the Internet, I say it on the Internet. Pretty simple concept, actually.
As indicated in the comment section of a different video, why are you an insipid douchebag, nattering narcissist, comment commandant, channel chancellor, supercilious swede, and boo fucking hoo boy. Show more videos on your pantry cupboards and array of spices you agitated depressive piece of shit and then shut the fuck up.
Ok, this can't be the real "thedakkster" because the real thedakkster said that it would violate his personal sense of ethics, to ever return to the Ian channel. But wait, has Thomas downgraded his "personal sense of ethics"? That would explain it, or maybe he's drinking again.
I never know what Ian is talking about but I find his voice comforting and he's easy on the eyes. When he doesn't look uncomfortable high, I stare & listen. If he seems too far gone, I do things and listen. He's just glad one listens, so... This is one of the few things I do that I don't understand. Since it's not dangerous or fattening, I guess I'll keep it up as long as he does.
That was a very poignant metaphor. I think you squeezed about as much juice from it as you could. But is there a way to focus your faculties WITHOUT having time feel like it's speeding up? Maybe reaching that other echelon? I think that's what we all want. Like those basketball commercials where Kobe Bryant is going all slow and everybody else feels like it's all going so fast. That's what we all want; for it to "slow down" for us, when it becomes easy because we've mastered it.
yes, a constant focused change of perspective. Like multitasking, causes the people around to see you moving and accomplishing quickly while to you it is a methodic process. bit by bit.

yes and no! yours is based on the time it takes the earth to revolve around the sun ie. one day/24 hours. In other parts of the galaxy planets with different sizes and orbits might take longer to ROTATE so our time would be obsolete in that respect. I work for myself so time is pretty much what I make of it. I don't need a cuckoo to tell me when someone is losing track...?

Dude, I feel compelled (not actually doing so until now) to correct individuals who make a blatantly obvious mistake in their posts. I certainly do not mean any disrespect in doing so.
It does not take 24 hours for the Earth to revolve around the Sun. It takes one year (365 days) for the Earth to revolve around the Sun. The Earth revolves on its own axis in a period of 24 hours.

In space "time" is only proportional to speed ie. how long it takes you to get somewhere, it is not relavent to the size of the planet you are on...

That's fascinating, Matt, but I took seventh grade science too. Now how is that possible when you never once saw me in class, right? Well, here's the thing - I went to a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SCHOOL than you did! In fact, Matt, it turns out that there are MANY different schools located ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY! I've even heard that some FOREIGN countries have schools of their own! I'm not making this up!!!
I know, it's a lot to take in all at once.

Interestingly, someone on planet X at 5 million light-years from Earth sees the Earth as it was 5 million years ago. At the same time, someone on Earth sees the Earth as it is right now. If you could travel from the Earth to X in a very short time, then the Earth would suddenly be seen 5 million years younger to you.

Great observation! Interestingly, everything we see in the universe is really a picture of the past. The closer we get to anything we closer we become to the present moment. That is the essence of time travel, it is not so much about time, but how fast we get there...

Fruit IS a verb. It is very commonly used as such, especially by horticulturalists. Also, tangent IS an adjective. Really! Maybe somebody else should write Ian's book.

Commy, it didn't reach fruition. I am using reach as the verb. Alas, tangent is an adjective but it was used incorrectly.
The thought was intangible. Ian's Vlog was tangent; in other words, irrelevant.

"It didn't fruit," is also correct. Sorry. I listen to gardening show, and the dude uses it that way all the time. Also, the online dictionary I checked just before my comment confirmed it. And, tangent means, "touching on a single point." Ian's usage may be correct, if that's what he meant.
theCommenteer 3 years ago
Pardon me for not knowing the TV gardener was a grammarian.
Commy, fruit trees bear fruit. Many dictionaries will contain idioms which are grammatically incorrect.
As for what Ian meant . . . who the fuck knows? lol
OneoftheImmortals 3 years ago
I've just checked 4 online dictionaries and they ALL include the verb in the definitions.
theCommenteer 3 years ago
There is a subtle difference in the fruition/fruit examples. If you're talking about something reaching fruition, you are talking about the fruit (noun). If you're talking about something fruiting, you're talking about that which produces the fruit. It is not clear to me whether Ian was using the verb correctly because I don't know if he meant that his metaphor failed to produce fruit or if it failed to become a fruit.
theCommenteer 3 years ago
Fruition is a state of bearing fruit.
BTW Commy, I thought you knew what I did for a living. I guess it wasn't that important for you to remember. It's OK.
Don't you find this whole thing fruitless?
OneoftheImmortals 3 years ago
That is also a definition of the word, I see. If you cared to look up "fruit" in that same dictionary, you will find the verb. Yes, it is always fruitless arguing with one such as you.
theCommenteer 3 years ago
Commy, why are you taking this personally? I will take this to a PM.
OneoftheImmortals 3 years ago
What I mean is that you have great difficulty in admitting that you are wrong. I wanted to say you never admit you're wrong, but I did see you do it once. I was stunned, and thought that perhaps you were human. Alack a day! (Alack a day does have alternate spellings, I believe, but I didn't check before this post).
This is not PM material.

--verb 7. to bear or cause to bear fruit: a tree that fruits in late summer; careful pruning that sometimes fruits a tree.
"fruit" as a verb applies to trees and is not interchangeable with "come to fruition." Ian incorrectly used the word even though it is a verb. Unless he meant it didn't grow pears, apples, oranges, avocado, etc.
Michelle5451 3 years ago
Since you agree that it can be used as a verb, I will just agree right back, and leave Ian's rectitudinity to a Higher Authority.
theCommenteer 3 years ago
Sure it is used as a verb, but only when talking about trees producing fruit. Ya know darn well Ian misused the word. It really is OK to stop worshipping him for 5 seconds; long enough to consider how uneducated and ignorant he really is.
Michelle5451 3 years ago
That's why I like you. You can't even agree to agree.
theCommenteer 3 years ago 2
But I DID agree with you, it IS a verb as you pointed out, but Ian didn't use it correctly. When used as a verb, it pertains to and only to trees or plants bearing fruit. You like me because although we're vastly different in many ways, in the ways we are alike...we're incredibly alike. Well, that and you dig birdies, too!

Geez, Ian - trying to communicate with you is kinda like talking to a brick that thinks it's the Great Wall of China.

time is the fourth dimension
mazilian 3 years ago
"Time is the moving image of eternity". Plato said this. There is no time in reality; it is referred to as a dimension. The three dimensions of space are not an element of reality either, there is only a single universal truth which is perceivable from a number of dimensions. "Time flies" or "time stands still", these are true in as literal a sense as the rate by which the hands of a clock move: this is because you do not perceive time, time is a metaphorical means by which to perceive truth.

I think you're right, that time is a measurement of movement, though I think it is the "quantum movement," not so much the "accelerative." If literally nothing moves in any way, time stops. If you could move every bit of matter, space, and energy (and whatever else there may be) to a previous arrangement, you would go back in time. And you would create an eternal loop!

Does time actually speed up, or do you just forget about time. I do not believe that time revolves around us, we revolve around time (not necesarily clock time, but instead solar and lunar cycles). We can't disconect from time because we are enveloped in time and our bodies are trained and formed around the cycles of the sun. Clocks are nice to check every once and a while, but they should not be trusted. Unfortunately, that is virtually impossible to do in this day and age...

Look at the stars with just your eyes and it is difficult to detect changes over a few minutes. But if you look through a good telescope one has to use a motorized drive to stay fixed on a star. Magnification also magnifies movement. I doubt if we are conscious of small movements on a quantum level since the eye constantly moves as we study an object.

Tex, I can't say anything to your face, because you are in Texas and I am in Sweden. We have a distance problem.

I tell them how and why they are stupid and why it would be good if they change their ways. If I come across someone on the Internet, I say it on the Internet. Pretty simple concept, actually.

That was a very poignant metaphor. I think you squeezed about as much juice from it as you could. But is there a way to focus your faculties WITHOUT having time feel like it's speeding up?

That's what we all want; for it to "slow down" for us, when it becomes easy because we've mastered it.
