defensiveness ahoy, magic 8 ball sez: wank again later, miss cleo told me i'm special, not enough wtf in the world, small but tasty, taking shit too seriously, useless facts

I know it because of my psychic learnings
Over in the little_details community, chibiyaoichan asks if twins can actually manifest each other's physical pain.

The consensus of the community is "no, not in real life."

This doesn't sit well with icedmaple, who is a psychic and has proof that she found on the internet which consists entirely of personal anecdotes.

Then she has a little fit on her journal. Twice.

How dare you not delete her comments in order to prove that she's irrational? That's just mean, kutsuwamushi. >:(

I read this not-actually-all-that-bad science fiction novel a few years ago about a woman on a colony planet that had been taken over by Evil Aliens who had this ability. She could feel her twin's pain. In fact, her twin didn't feel any pain at all because the woman could feel it (or something like that, it turned out the twin was the 'stronger personality' and kept shoving her pain off onto her twin. Nice). Anyways, the stronger twin was spying against the Evil Aliens and got caught, so they tortured her to death. Naturally she didn't feel any pain from the torture because she shoved it off onto her twin. The physical damage to her body finally did her in. When the book opens her twin is still recovering from the after effects.

And then the surviving twin met a member of the feline Good Alien race and feel in psychic love and annoyed me to near death with her TSTL behavior. So I quit reading the series.
