 That site appears to churn up every single emotion in me: From elated joy to violent rage.
 At first I thought they were all from the same person, and that confused the hell out of me. Now I think they are all from different people. I hope.

The "Secrets" of LJ are basically where people email the community owner(s) with pics they've made that express their opinions they don't want anyone they associate with to find out about. I personally avoid them like the plague unless someone points me to one specifically. It can turn into a hornet's nest of drama, especially because of the rampant anonymity combined with intense personal feelings that the person knows may be unpopular.

Also, there are trolls.

That's odd, I just see the inside of my eyelids when I close my eyes...

Maybe I need to play more often.

I play games that much all the time. The first, I believe, to imprint itself so deeply upon my was Theme Park.

Same here- I stay out of roleplaysecrets for my own self-esteem's sake (I run a roleplay that ends up with secrets about it sometimes) and fandomsecrets is just too many secrets and too much drama about shows I don't watch anyway.

This.

Red-tinted static if I close my eyes while looking at a bright light.

In my head, I see what I want, when I want, in addition to what my eyes see.  So when my eyes are closed, I have almost complete control over what I see.

Almost.  *shudders*

I don't think there's a hammer big enough to knock Borat out of my head.

This. My imagination is too real. It should be much less accurate.

Same for me. My problem is that if I concentrate too hard on the image it loses focus ex: I can remember every detail of a person's face but only if I don't try to see it. It's like when you're trying too see something out of the corner of your eye but if you look at it directly it disappears.
