Telekinesis: A practical and fun skill (WEEK 219)

in Weekend Experiences2 months ago (edited)

Hello,

I never thought I'd be talking about telekinesis or telepathy. Mostly because they are two abilities that I don't have and that I very much doubt that they really exist. But like everything in life. Who knows if there is someone who has real powers.

Between the two special abilities proposed by @galenkp in this #weekend-engagement I would prefer to have the ability of telekinesis and I am going to explain it with a practical case and the first of them a bit scatological, but I am sure that it will have happened to you on some occasion.

Who has never entered a public toilet and there was no toilet paper?

A few months ago I was travelling along the motorway when I had a delicate moment when I had to stop my car at a service area and urgently went to the toilet.

Once I had done my business, I looked at the place where the toilet paper should be and saw that there was none.

At that moment, telepathy could be a good option to contact someone who was in the toilet or someone in charge of the service area. But I would be embarrassed to have to connect with someone else's mind to tell them that I want to wipe my ass.

But with telekinesis I could connect my mind to the nearest roll of paper and roll it towards me without disturbing anyone and without embarrassment.

Unfortunately, I had no such powers and resorted to wiping myself with the cardboard from the toilet roll and completing my hygiene task by sacrificing my socks. After all, it was the one item of clothing I could sacrifice.

And these socks ended up in a bin inside the toilet and I had a clean ass to continue my journey.

The hassle of changing channels before remote controls

The vast majority of us are used to the remote control.

But a few decades ago, televisions did not have remote controls and it was necessary to get up from the sofa to change channels.

It was a real pain to get up, change the channel, sit down again, get up again, change the channel and so on and so forth.

It would have been a real joy to be able to move some utensil to the television and change the channel.

At that time, I didn't have telekinesis, but I did have my wits about me and I always had a long stick near the sofa that allowed me to operate the buttons on the TV without getting up.

Ironing with my mind

One of the household chores I hate the most is undoubtedly ironing clothes.

But more is my hatred for having my clothes unironed and wrinkled.

Spending hours ironing shirts, trousers and t-shirts is something I hate because I have to stand for a long time, being hot with the iron and also because I'm not very good at getting it perfect.

So being able to move the iron with my mind and have it move perfectly over each garment and look the way my mind wants it to, which will be infinitely better than what I currently get with my hands, is one of the things that have just declined my preference for Telekinesis.

I hope you had fun reading this post.

Have a nice weekend.

You wouldn't even have to lift a finger!!!! And in emergency situations like the one in the bathroom it would be useful. It could also be used to save lives, for example to prevent an accident or something like that.✨

Saving lives would be nice.

I wanted to take the post to everyday situations where it could help one with certain problems.

It is more palpable and everyday, they are good examples.

By the time they want to get the waste bin out, that's when they will know what people who used the toilet went through, telekinesis will have really be of help in that situation, they make you used your socks when you still needed it.

Poor person who enters the dustbin afterwards 😅😅

😀I don't even know what either of them means

sacrificing my socks

I once sacrificed an undershirt 🤣

But a few decades ago, televisions did not have remote controls and it was necessary to get up from the sofa to change channels.

Luckily for me, there were only two channels on our television then, so there was no need to get up often.
I see, we thought the same in our posts - remote control 👌
