So my almost drowning experience is a no-go, got it. Probably not really NSFW, but talking about mortality isn't very light-hearted. A lot of my weird memories came from when I was a kid. I think one of the absolute weirdest moments in my life was discovering video games. It was when I was real young... I was watching my sister play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and I was just like "she's making that dude on the screen do things, wtf?". It's the weird realization that there are these digital worlds that you can access and affect with a certain interface, and that these worlds (as well as the interface) are all man-made. And it's also the sudden comprehension of the idea behind controlling what seems to be another thinking, breathing person. Even if it's not real, it was just so surreal for me as a kid, and even to this day it feels like magic. I know, that might not seem overtly strange, especially given this is a forum dedicated to a series of video games... and I have had some other weird real-world experiences. But none of them besides maybe that drowning one I mentioned made me ponder the nature of anything so deeply as the first time I was consciously aware of video games.

Shoblongoo Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Yeah I can't share the weirdest experience(s) of my life in anything even remotely resembling a SFW format. Imma take a pass on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, I just recently became an adult. I also have a recurring SFW dream where I trip. Then I wake up. That’s it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BergelomeuSantos Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Probably not my most Weirdest/Oddest Experience because my mind is really messy and this is SFW-Limited: I sometimes dream about things that actually will happen in the same day, for example: ''I dreamed that me and my friend would simply fall at same time.'' And at a unknown time, it simply happens. It's the same scenario, same people, same event. Call it even prediction if you want. Oh, and I always get a ''Holly Shit, it's happening!'' type of emotion at the moment the scene starts. If I'm going to chose one, it's probably going to be this one: At the night I dreamed about something simple: I would burn my hand at one of those ''Bread Burner'' (or whatever you call those things). I would also drop a knife that I was using before burning my hand, and I used this event as a ''marker'' so I could stop before actually burning it (I was doing tests at the time, so a burned hand would affect me a lot). What is strange, you say? I simply could't. My body simply followed the events that I dreamed about without me having any kind of action. By the way, don't ask me why I tried to use Bread Burner even if I know this was going to happen, not even I know the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, I just recently became an adult. I'm sorry, but with those two sentences juxtaposed next to one another, there are very specific implications for what this might be referring to, and I'm not even sure you meant it. Though if you did mean it... well, it happens to a lot of young lads, don't worry about it. 1 hour ago, Azure in a Roundabout said: I also have a recurring SFW dream where I trip. Then I wake up. Does it jolt you awake? Because I think that's called "exploding head syndrome". Sounds scary as all hell, but as far as I can tell, the only effect it actually has is occasionally forcing you to abruptly wake up during your REM hours, which is less of a debilitation (unless it happens frequently enough to effectively act as insomnia) and more of a mild annoyance. Something similar happens to me. Although instead of tripping, I'm falling from the sky. 1 hour ago, BergelomeuSantos said: I sometimes dream about things that actually will happen in the same day, for example: ''I dreamed that me and my friend would simply fall at same time.''

Oh, and I always get a ''Holly Shit, it's happening!'' type of emotion at the moment the scene starts. I believe there's a name for this as well, but I'm not sure what it is. However, you aren't the only one that experiences this. One famous example was one time a man dreamed that during a stunt show with planes, a horrific tragedy would occur where a stuntman would die; the man went to the event he dreamed about, gave some forewarnings, and prevented the disaster from occurring. Also, that "holy shit" feeling sounds like the dream version Deja Vu - the feeling of having experienced something you've already experienced before. 1 hour ago, BergelomeuSantos said: At the night I dreamed about something simple: I would burn my hand at one of those ''Bread Burner'' (or whatever you call those things).

What is strange, you say? I simply could't. My body simply followed the events that I dreamed about without me having any kind of action. You could be referring to two things: either a toaster or a panini press. Anyway, that is quite an interesting phenomenon (if rather unfortunate). It's like the literal incarnation of the problem Nils and Ninian in Blazing Sword speak about when they talk about their powers of foresight - their inability to prevent what's to come. This again might have a specific name, but that too escapes me. 1 hour ago, BergelomeuSantos said: By the way, don't ask me why I tried to use Bread Burner even if I know this was going to happen, not even I know the answer. tbf, toasted bread is really good. Especially when you supplement it with a buttery spread or it's a grilled-cheese sandwich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant I was low on life experiences (with nothing meaning anything to do with that sort of manner, if you know what I mean) with that latter sentence. And with that first one, I think it’s way more bizarre than gross. To follow the rules here, it will still not be mentioned. With the possible “Exploding Head Syndrome”, I’ll have to get back to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what my search for a translation said, it seems to be this panini press you spoke of. Not really the most easy thing to do a lyrical translation.

This. This is something I've been very curious about the late weeks. Not a long time ago, I made a new friend that I never had even seen before the friendship, turns out that I had a lot of those ''Unnamed Dreams'' with her. Nothing very serious or anything, just what you would typically call a Déjà Vu, but, like I said, this is a completely a new experience and it won't make a lot of sense to me to have experienced before, and the fact that I dream with those ''Déjà Vu'' only makes things more complicated for my stupid head. But yes, the feeling is pretty much the same. 3 hours ago, Azure in a Roundabout said: I also have a recurring SFW dream where I trip. Then I wake up. We're EHS brothers, cool. (Sorry for not answering all your responses, Ertrick, I'm going to make a little search on this ''Unnamed Dream'' before making something out of it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 If you can't post the weirdest/oddest thing 'cause it's NSFW, post the weirdest/oddest SFW one. Like so: Every time I see a cat on the street, I know things will go okay. Earlier today, I had to transfer buses, and was having an internal freak-out because the bus I was on was running later than anticipated. Right before I got off, I saw a cute little calico cat, nosing away at something-or-other in a parking lot. Took a deep breath and decided to trust my cat luck. Sure enough, the bus I needed to transfer to was also late. Didn't miss my transfer, made it home in good time, and was able to eat before Bad Things happened. A win if you ask me!

Light Strategist Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The only thing that I can really think of that fits is that though I wasn't dreaming or anything, I once woke up with YMCA playing in my head and to this day I am absolutely baffled at how or why.

Dandy Druid Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Not sure if this is the absolute weirdest, but it's one of the weirdest in recent memory. I was at a friend's birthday party, and we all got drunk. Me, being the lightweight I was, was stumbling all over the place and my friend (the birthday boy) just kept smiling and telling me "I'll take care of you!" in a rather drunken fashion. Since the party was on the rooftop on the apartment complex we were at (common in South Korea) and we just hugged and started at the lights of the city. Then he kept kissing the side of my head. Granted, we only met a couple days prior to this party, so I thought it was weird that I was getting kissed on the side of my head by this drunk guy I met 2 days ago. Had a wonderful time still.

Armchair General Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The weirdest thing that I've seen was an homeless woman fussing at my mom in a parking lot...And then she tried to get in my face to do the same thing to me while trying to get me the call the cops on my mom.
