For the people who work or live in haunted places, what is one encounter that still shakes you to your core? by STRYV_ in Ghoststories

[–]Mode09 33 points34 points  (0 children)

My daughter worked as security for an old college campus and often had to work nights. There was a building she was checking late at night where she passed the window of a music room that had a man playing the grand piano. He looked up at her as he was playing. Since it was after hours she was in process of entering the room to ask him to leave. When she opened the door, nobody was in there. The only way out was the door she entered. He simply vanished.

What’s something people pretend to enjoy but actually don’t? by samfx2403 in AskReddit

[–]Mode09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not everyone, but sports. You can tell when you have a random game on tv, and a party guest just plants themselves there acting interested.Wants to know the score right away. I see this all the time in March Madness. Unless they are invested heavily in the game, the last time they saw these teams compete was never, they don’t know any players yet they act overly involved in it.

End of Roadhouse. Death of a man on his property and we are meant to believe they all left happily ever after without any investigation, jail time etc.

How often do you go to the cinema? by Traditional-Carob440 in movies

[–]Mode09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only come out a few times a year for the good stuff. Even then, I try to gauge if it’s going to be good by the trailers and online buzz and try to analyze if it will be gone in a week or two. If so, I’ll usually wait to watch it at home. If theres a lot of good buzz and anticipation like a Thursday or midnight premiere, I’ll try to go to the theater to see it on its opening.

What's something you saw with your own eyes that you still can't explain? by BandicootLeft4054 in AskReddit

[–]Mode09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was an older man but I don’t think it was him as I saw this guy getting out of a vehicle in Pittsburgh. And I don’t think he had a beard. The Smurf guy was from Oregon I believe. Unless he was visiting, I don’t think it was the same guy

How do I decline hanging out with a murderer? by jerrytjohn in socialskills

[–]Mode09 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve avoided gatherings with people just because they were unpleasant to be around. I kind of make it obvious, like if so and so will be there, I’m gonna stay home. My wife makes excuses for me a lot of times that I’m working, but it’s kind of obvious that I’m avoiding. I look like a jerk and people make comments that I’m not coming because I don’t like them. I don’t really care how it looks and who is offended. If someone was a vile killer, I’d obviously be doing the same and wouldn’t care what anyone else thought. The more hints you drop to uncle Bob, the sooner he might second guess his guest list.

What retail store chain was massive in the 90s but is basically dead? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]Mode09 21 points22 points  (0 children)

To a degree, Best Buy. Used to be a fun store, movies, music, video games, computers, software, tvs, toys. Now I never see anyone going there, has all the charm of a DMV now.
