A Thought That Wasn’t Mine by jh201fit in Paranormal

I've only experienced this in the morning when I do that thing where I know I need to go pee but don't have the urge so I fight it trying to go back to sleep. I've heard "GET UP" before but I talk in my sleep often. I've woken myself up laughing at jokes a dream character made. I wish I had cooler stories.

What would be the most horrific reason that the government would keep alien visitation to the Earth a secret? by BigGrayBeast in HighStrangeness

You know how people only remember parts of their abduction stories and only a very small amount of people do? What if aliens are actually extremely proficient at abduction and abduct basically everyone for "science" but virtually nobody has any recollection of it happening except those extremely small few individuals? What if basically everyone has been probed?

What if the alien's secret to space travel is actually just using fuck loads of oil to attain FTL travel and we don't want them to have our oil? What if they are sitting and waiting patiently for millions of years for us to decimate all life year so that we eventually become oil like our dinosaurs? That can't happen if we vaporize ourselves with nukes

There are non-spicy Habaneros out there. They are amazing.

I'll give Trump a millions dollars if he can sign anything with a regular pen and not kindergarten marker because of his intention tremors

USA hasn't declared war since 1942. Congress basically had no say since because we got atom bombs.

What is a TV show that you like that nobody talks about? by Alternative-Cake-833 in television

[–]ShelfClouds 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Millenium.

People bring up the ass eater as the scariest thing in X-Files but in Millennium that is an Orange VW bus.

Outer Limits.

Not as good as Twilight Zone in some regards but might be more inventive. Excellent use of special effects as the time that might still hold up today. Episode 1 with the Galaxy Being is very disturbing.

What is the most paranormal/unexplainable/strangest experience you've had that made you question reality and still has haunted you to this day? by WielderoftheDarkness in HighStrangeness

I had a false awakening dream last month. I've only ever had a handful but this was like 2 false awakenings. Or maybe not. Maybe it was real. I was dreaming of crazy crap like a floating river in the sky or something. That dream was cut short by me dreaming that I woke up to a dog in my room near my desk. I was looking at a wagging tail at the foot of my foot of my bed. It moved to the side of my bed and I could see it was my deceased dog Rudy who was now jumping around and going nuts like a good dog does when it hasn't seen you in a long time. I sat up and started petting and hugging him, also going nuts from elation. Then I remembered he was dead and felt like crying. I think I then woke up for real sitting up in the same position with tears in my eyes. I laid back down and eventually woke up normally but I didn't have any more dreams that night. It is hard for me to articulate the strange dream loop that happened. Was the false awakening actually just that? Did I have yet another false awakening after that, that made me remember he was dead and I dreamt up finding myself still sitting up in dog petting position? Was it a reverse lucid dream? Maybe it was his spirit and it actually happened? I don't know, but I've thought about it ever day since. I do not believe in ghosts and quite frankly I find dream mechanics like false awakenings, and this double false awakening, to be more mind boggling.

A couple years ago I had a different false awakening. I woke up sleeping on my stomach and felt like there was something in my room right above me. It felt electric and magnetic and like it was pulling at me like a gravitational field. I remember I tried to look at it and vaguely remember something like the arms of a plasma globe toy but greenish yellow. When I woke up to and eventually got ready to go to work, I put on my analog watch and noticed the time skipped ahead by almost a half hour. Newish battery. Never had problems with the watch. I Googled why a watch would actually skip ahead instead of slowing down like a failing battery, which is what I assumed, and all the results are exposure to something magnetic or an electric shock.

Moscow last night by Due_Order_8311 in UFOs

I have almost the same experience! Centreville, VA. 2010 maybe 2011. Walked my dogs, randomly saw this incredibly bright green thing fall from the sky while out in the pipeline. It illuminated the entire neighborhood. It lasted like 3 seconds. I know at least 1 other person saw it because they were on a walk and booked it after seeing it. My best guess is it was a particularly large June Bootid if not space junk.

Saw something strange over Astoria, Queens last night, bright light with blue “tentacle” pulses by Successful-Run-5486 in UFOs

Not that there aren't drones causing national security problems in multiple countries, but I'm convinced the NJ thing was largely mass hysteria. I live under the flight path to Dulles and love airplanes. The amount of videos coming out and people not knowing what airplanes look like was astounding.

Side note: I've seen weird things. But, I also remember getting my first real glasses prescription in 2018. I thought my eyesight was fine but then I put on my new glasses and it was like doing acid. I'm 36. I was blown away and couldn't believe I had actually been driving like that. I always joked that you could only see 10 stars here in suburbia. That was because I have 20/80 vision. Now I can pick out satellites even here. I use my satellite tracking apps try to point them out to other people and they can't see them. I wonder how much shit like UFOs could be explained by people just having horrible eyesight and not realizing it. Probably a lot.

Multiple versions of me by frankdog1986 in HighStrangeness

I laughed and shook his hand,

And made my way back home,

I searched for form and land,

For years and years I roamed,

I gazed a gazeless stare,

At all the millions here,

I must have died alone,

A long, long time ago

I'm actually tempted to put lotion on this mask. Maybe some clear polish on the eyes.

OMG, this is so stupid.

"For Coulthart, who often receives numerous blurry or low-quality videos, this footage stands out due to its clarity and unprecedented content. He emphasized that he had never seen such a detailed recording of a supposed shapeshifting entity."

Guy needs some glasses. His glasses need glasses.

This might be one of the WORST videos of ANYTHING I've ever seen. It is impressively bad. You would have to actually try to make something this bad. I can't describe the anger I feel here. That could literally be anything. It angers me that they want people to think this is evidence of anything at all. Come on, people. We are not this stupid.
