What Do You Call The Act Of Tapping Your Fingers On The Table One At A Time

Yesterday I woke up because I felt someone tapped me on my shoulder, I live alone. This morning, I woke up and I saw a black silhouette before I went back to sleep. What's going on?

It is easy to say these dreams and actions are paranormal activity. It is extremely hard to pin-point it is exactly an alien tapping your shoulder or causing the black silhouette.In the first instance it is wiser to rationalise and explain these phenomena as natural extensions of a human condition. I know that imagination does play tricks on the mind and so does fatigue, depression, schizophrenia, mental disorders and also an ardent belief that paranormal activity exists.Once these human factors are ruled out and no other rational explanation exists it is only then we can point to paranormal activity. Thousands( maybe millions) of people have these occurrences.Having said that we must not jump to conclusions that paranormal activity does not exist. There are countless examples of where it does. Only yesterday I was watching a docu series on Netflix which detailed how people in the highest positions in the world are aware of these paranormal instances.It is true that many individuals possess extra-ordinary powers to communicate with these forces.At one time we were aware of only 11 planets. We were required to memorise them as our base knowledge of the Universe. In the last decade we now know that there are thousands of such planets which can harbour life. That makes it very possible that an alien culture will definitely try to extend its communication systems in our direction. This may have happened for thousands of years but we were not learned enough to understand this dimension.There is evidence available of civilisations that did impossible things that even today we cannot fathom how those feats were humanly possible.In that sense the simple act of someone touching your shoulder may have been an unknown force attempting to communicate with you. The black silhouette may be an innocent shadow of an alien form or trick of the mind. Who are we to discount these recordings? We dont know anything at all about any of these unknown planets and their life forms. Only now we are searching for clues.Until the data builds up and contact is established we are compelled by circumstances to answer every single incident ourselves. The answers are currently elusive.I am in no competent position to give a firm answer to this paradox.Thanks for the A2A

I am a gemini, but nothing like it?

i was wondering if being born in another country in another season, make u a different star sign. if u get what i mean. i did that way and i'm taurus and it sounds more like me. is that possible

According to quantum mechanics, is it true that if you throw a ball against a wall enough times eventually it would pass straight through the wall?

To elaborate on Joshua Engel's point (which is correct):The ball does not in fact disappear and reappear on the opposite side of the wall, that doesn't make sense. The problem is that our traditional understanding of reality is in fact a (usually very good) approximation to the truth.Quantum Mechanics claims that there is not a ball at a position in space, there is a probability density function (PDF) across the entire universe peaked very strongly at that position in space. If we were to make an observation of "where is the ball", we have some chance to observe it at any non-zero value. The PDF usually tails off very quickly as an exponential such that at very high distances the value is significantly smaller.The "wall" is, in physics terminology, a "finite potential" with  a finite thickness. The ball cannot be observed inside the wall (we're  talking a physics-wall, not a household wall which is just a weird motley collection of atoms causing a small potential) but the probability density function continues, though reduced due to the large potential it has to "tunnel" through, on the opposite side.If we keep asking "where is the ball," we have some chance to observe it anywhere on the PDF. Since the peak is on our side of the wall we will see it there about 99.9...9% of the time (with enough 9's to give you those 10^10^23 numbers Joshua was talking about). But that doesn't mean we can't observe it on the other side of the wall, just that it's very unlikely. And when we do observe it there are crazy quantum observation effects which change the system and collapse it such that the wavefunction is now peaked on the other side of the wall (and that's where the really complicated stuff comes in, don't ask me to explain it please).The reason we never see this happening on something as big as a ball is that the "strength" of that peaking of the wavefunction depends on the mass of the object in question (or it might be some power of the mass, citation needed). It so happens that electrons are just about the right size that they do this on occasion. A proton, ~2000 times an electron's mass, almost never does it. A ball will do it once in the lifetime of many billions of universes.

Is it bad dining etiquette to do this with your spoon in your bowl?

True and proper etiquette would dictate to be pleasant to others. Not tell others who and what to do.

Honestly, this is such a little thing in life that i have to wonder why you allow it to bother you so? It is a choice you are making. If you decided you'd never allow it to bother you again and any time it started and you told yourself to stop thinking about it, the problem would be solved.

It's a casual lunch. Even at a great luncheon it would not be rude to finish all of your soup. Though, one should tilt the bowl away from themselves and scoop the spoon away from ones self as well.

If you were to tell people to no longer eat the rest of their soup because their methods bother you, you would be far more out of line then they ever could be with making noise. Etiquette wise anyway. You cannot dictate how others eat and should not want too either. Take yourself off to eat somewhere else if you refuse to change.

How do I discipline my cat?

My cat, is insane. She is a brat. She is a b****. She is mean. But she is my cat.
Yelling at her when she does something bad like pull on my arm and start biting me, or when she lays on top of the lizards tank (almost breaking it). It doesnt work. She ignores it.
Pointing at her or tapping her on the head doesn't do anything. She puts her ears back. But just sits there like i'm not doing anything.
Moving her, putting her somewhere else, these things only stop her temporarly. After 10 minutes she completely forgets she was in trouble and goes back to being a brat.
I've been told "just ignore her behavior, cats hate when they don't get attention".
That is such b/s. If i ignore her she keeps doing the activity. She doesn't stop.
I don't get her. She is such a sweetheart when it's convenient for her, but then she starts her mischief and can't be stopped.
How do I punish her without hurting her?
