What's the weirdest, freakiest thing that's ever happened to you?

[MattG]

Spill!

I have a rather long and involved ghost story that I can't type out right now because I'm too bleary eyed to function.

Tell us your thing and I'll get back to mine.



crap, I typo-ed 'wierd'. If a mod sees this can you fix?

[DanielBenoit]

Seeing the film Eraserhead :lol:

[Maximilianus]

Hmm... lemme check my database... hmm... :idea:

Being born about 35 years ago :lol:

[papayahed]

I left my eyeglasses at the gym and when I went back to pick them up, the desk woman was wearing them. It was really awkward when i had to tell her she had my glasses on and could i please have them back.
I don't even understand how she was able to see with my prescription.

Plain or with a bit of sauce? I bet it was crunchy and juicy!! :lol: :lol:

Mayhap she took your eyes too, and both of you didn't notice :lol:

My life must be really boring, as I can't come up with anything especially weird or freaky happening to me :p

Unless you count getting lost in the middle of a forest after the sunset with eight younger girls on my responsibility at the age of fifteen :lol: (But hey, we weren't really lost, we just couldn't see where we were after it got dark. But in the morning finding our way back to the civilization was a piece of cake :nod:)

I have it all figured to pour some sauce in your life, so listen up. Go to that forest again, get REALLY LOST in there, have some adventures trying to get back to civilization (like making one of the girls disappear and having a few others eaten by a bear :lol: :lol:), and once you're done (and once the bear is done eating :lol:) come back here and tell us the full story. Tip: if you have to exaggerate the story a bit to make it weirder, then go ahead; nobody will tell the difference if they weren't in the same forest at the same time :p :lol:

:lol: Actually I dreamt of a bear coming to our camp that night we spent in the forest (I'm pretty proud of myself for being able to sleep even though it was raining the whole night, our tent was leaking just above my face and I didn't even have enough space to sleep normally, but had to bend myself into an "L" :D), but I'm afraid that's the best I can do :(

[Modigliani]

Good question. ;) I would have to cite (at least among strange events in the recent past) a certain performance during which my nose randomly started bleeding onstage in a scene where I was supposed to be dying of poison.

[Shalot]

I've had dreams that point me to things that happen later.

[The Comedian]

Okay, you're all not going to believe this. But I swear it's as I remember. . . . .

One Easter when I was six or seven or eight -- it was the early morning gloaming. I was, as usual, sleeping in the top bunk. I think I hear something outside my window. A faint breeze is blowing; the curtains move slightly.

I sit up. And look out the window. I see the shadow of a large, human-sized rabbit pass by my windows. I'm terrified and duck under the covers. A couple seconds pass. Then, I pull back the covers, sit up, and look out again. And the shadow of a large, human-sized rabbit passes by my window again. This time in the opposite direction.

The strangest thing: with as much terror as I felt the first time, I was met with an equal amount of calm relief the second time.

The upshot: I haven't seen the Easter Bunny. But I have seen its shadow. Twice.

Oh my dear Anna, you are the first person I know with the ability to sleep and dream of bears while the rain is falling upon your face :lol: YOU ARE QUITE A CASE :lol:

It's weird enough for me for the reasons aforementioned :nod: I'm proud of you :lol:

Quite an appropriate bleeding for the scene you had to portray. It must have given your performance a lot of realism :p

How peculiar, I've had similar dreams and I still have them every so often! I think it's like a déjà vu, only that being asleep and pointing to the future.

I've had those too, for example dreaming of some person I hadn't thought I'd ever see again and then running into him the very next day.

But my boring explanation would be that whenever something like that happens (and it's bound to happen every now and then), it helps us to remember the dreams we'd otherwise forget, thus making them seem more significant.

Or if that sounds too dull, maybe it means that the shadow of Easter Bunny was there to give us some information about our futures. That's what was supposed to happen to The Comedian, too, but he just happened to be awake at the time :lol:

[1n50mn14]

Hahahaha. I have to think about this one. My LIFE is weird.

[Shalot]

Yes - exactly. So I was wondering if I was supposed to do anything when that happens or should I just sit back and observe and think "dang, that's pretty trippy..."

Also, i never quite know what to make of the dreams...they're always so weird and I guess all I've got to go on is the people in them and how the dream made me feel.

[Dori]

I once had a dream where I had hitchhiked. I was with a friend going somewhere, so I really have no idea why we hitched a ride from some stranger, but we did anyway. So I was sitting in the guy's pickup truck and he was driving. All of a sudden some guy walks out into the road and bam. Dead. You know how in dreams you are able to "feel" things (like when you fall or get shot or something)? Well, I "felt" the guy's head split under the wheel.

And the driver just kept on driving. My friend, sitting next to me, didn't even notice.

It still freaks me out, why I would dream such a dream.

(Oh, and my "friend" was a litnet member I've never met in person. Good grief.)

Hmm... hummm... clever analysis :brow:

Never ever seen an Easter Bunny... but I'm seeing Valkyries in dreams and everywhere else... would that do? :lol:

:nod: Definitely, they are so weird that we don't really know what good interpretation (or interpretations) could come out of them. I feel some dreams may be warnings of what should or should not be done, but how to know, especially when most of the time I forget many of the details of my dreams? Do you recall them in detail, or you find yourself amid loose ends? :(

Maybe it's a warning not to ever meet your friend in person :cold:. Probably destiny is not prepared for you two to occupy the same space/time layer :cold:

.....

On second thought... I'm beginning to derail... so I'd better go to bed before you start believing every word I'm saying as though I were in my right mind :lol:

You seem to frequent this thread frequently. ;)
Yes indeed. So real that most audience members thought it was part of the show and therefore fake. I certainly had fun milking it for all it was worth; I'm just thankful my scene partner wasn't faint of heart.

I do, I'm a weirdo and a freak :nod: :D

That's what good performers do, take advantage of misfortunes and enjoy the results :thumbs_up :)
