Also what she said :wink: so long as I myself am not human. More films have come out since I posted that and funnily enough, Dawn of the planet of the apes was actually set in 2026.

Postman Pat, in just a little village where you know everybody and are all good friends and live in little cottages around the country farms, living an easy, homely life. Community is small and friendly.

I lived in such a tiny village as a young child and later I used to visit my grandma living there up until I was 17 :) Later my grandma died - she got diagnosed with a skin cancer the very day I turned 18 and died a couple of months later.

Btw, a postman in Polish means listonosz - literally, a letter carrier and a bra means here biustonosz which in turn means a breast carrier. :mrgreen: Those words rhyme and you know, there is such a funny poem about a conversation between a postman and a bra about "which one is a more useful servant of humanity". :lol: The postman says that the impatient people sometimes would love to tear him apart (you know, to faster get to the letters he carries) and that he has such a hard job because he is carrying this burden... to which the bra replies: "and me? What's about me?" :mrgreen: :lol:

I read about people who did KILL themselves because they believed they were going to live in a Pandora-like world after their death. 8O I think they had read Michael Newton, Erik Medus, Robert Monroe and Bruce Moen too many times :lol:

I think I watched all the movies released back then, back when I was a kid (10-11) but the exact details have already evaporated from my memory ever since; I still remember the image of the head of the Statue of Liberty sticking out of the ground 8O

Hogan's Heroes. That would be a fun world to live in. I have dreams about it.

I've read about that too and the "post pandora depression" phenomenon where people found earth really underwhelming after watching Avatar. People mock avatar for having "no cultural impact" but that's because they're not looking beyond the very surface. Or they have selective memories and forgot all about the post pandora depression stuff that made mainstream news. That fandom is among the most loyal and nuts.

Speaking of planets, I think I would also want to live on King Kai's planet from Dragon Ball :) Or in the mansion of Death from "The Discworld" :) You know, in eastern Europe, Death - the antropomorphic personification :mrgreen: :D - is a woman so I was pretty surprised as a teen when I read in Pratchett's book about Death being presented as a dude :)

In the Polish literature, there is such a piece of work from the Middle Ages entitled "The Conversation of Master Polikarp with Death" and in this piece of literature, Death is shown as a putrifying body of a woman. Here: https://adabrowka.wordpress.com/2014/03 ... -polycarp/
