Holy shit other people did this? I thought if I just used the same logic my father used on me, things would work better.

You do the same thing if you want to boil water faster

It really works. You just have to believe it.

I mean it does work, just in your mind though. Since time will seem to go faster if you are distracted by something more interesting than a loading screen.

For me it was repeatly pressing spacebar as fast I could during those load screens lol

I will say, getting an SSD is like going from Kaio-ken to Super Saiyan.

I used to count between 1-100 and see how many times I counted till the game loaded🤣🤣

That’s how it works though, if you are in a hurry, things are very slow amd crash

This just a rephrasing of “A watched pot never boils.”
It’s not that it physically alters reality, it’s supposed to be a trick on your own brain.

You did that too?? Funny!
Or if there was something wrong with the computer\disk you would try to only have good thoughts so it wouldn’t crash. Diablo on my 486 DX2 66….. Would run for 5 to 10 minutes before crashing.

It actually works haha

Also be sure to keep an eye on the loading level with the cursor, so it will definitely move faster.

Traffic lights work on this same principle.

Another life hack. To avoid red lights when driving, just pull a kleenex out as if you are going to blow your nose. Light instantly turns green and every light after never goes red.

Don’t look at it. Just act nonchalant.

What games are you playing that have a loading screen? Nowadays games barely have any loading time

We experience time differently than the actual passing of time. We have an internal clock that changes with age. When you are frustratingly waiting and looking at something, time is passing slower for you.
