I can't tell if this is sarcasm.

Yeah, even I can appreciate the artistry and thoughtfulness of the story even though I may have not enjoyed the story itself.It's just for fun... You didn't have to read it. This is a thread about being accustomed to easily accessible information, the fallibility of memory, and how consequential something meaningless can seem when you're emotionally invested in the outcome. I'm sorry you didn't care for the exaggerated anecdote. I thought it would be fun for people to read. If you weren't enjoying it, you could have stopped.
There's no need to respond like this.

SO MUCH TEXT.
Summary please, somebody?
Also, I actually remember the scene you're talking about, and it does exist, but it's in Grave Encounters 2.
Berenstain Bears
I mean, the whole point of the thread is the story.
But, if you insist, my girlfriend and I both remembered a scene from a movie called Grave Encounters that didn't happen. We expended a lot of energy to try to clear up our confusion. It is funny and embarrassing in retrospect. The OP is a dramatization of the event in a way that illustrates how seriously people can take even the most boring problems.
Great post, I love stories like these. Ignore all the whiners who are on a discussion forum but for some reason think they're too good to read.
OP, I just wanted to tell you...I've been coming to this website fairly regularly for about four years now, and this is without a doubt the wittiest, most well-written account I've ever seen posted on this forum. I was genuinely laughing out loud at several points in your story, and absolutely adored every second of this. There was an almost staggering amount of wit and creativity in this, and the fact you managed to wring so much out of such a knowingly mundane, pedestrian subject was a real wonder.
Amazing job.

OP do you write professionally? I've always wondered why you always put 110% in your posts.
Well that would add a true supernatural twist, as OP hasn't actually seen it, it seems!Also, I actually remember the scene you're talking about, and it does exist, but it's in Grave Encounters 2.

This was probably written as a joke but we could very well be a simulation.We are software, and buggy software at that. News at 11!
I need to add a bit of my own, still ongoing experience. I remember, about 15-20 years ago watching a scene from a cheezy horror movie on TV, in which a villain (it was a woman) falls into the roller press of some kind, and yells profanities towards a detective that she was running away from. I clearly remember her telling him something like "Turn away you sissy, you don't have stomach to look at this" as she starts coughing blood, while being pulled into the press. In another story from (most likely) that same movie, a man goes to a smoke-quitting center that does weird psychological things to him and others who are there for the same reason. For example - they show them a video of people furiously smoking in an airplane cabin, and then cut to a shot of an airplane crashing into a mountain range.
Despite these being such iconic scenes to me, no one ever seems to have seen them (I've asked here and on other forums multiple times), and what's worse, there are several other similar scenes from other movies (like Quitters Inc. from Cat's Eye), which are not the same thing - that over the years I've started to question if I've ever actually seen what I've described above. There is one friend from around that time who I'm not really in contact with, who I think has seen this same movie together with me. I'm almost scared to ask him about it.
DON'T POST WEIRDOS INSIDE.
This cat gets it.
I remember never being able to find footage online of a children's show named Eureeka's Castle back in 2007ish. I wanted to confirm the name of a character named Batley but it just wasn't well documented. Even the Wikipedia article, at the time, was extremely sparse. You don't find such light Wikipedia articles as often though. One that's still extremely bare is for the PS1 JRPG Threads of Fate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threads_of_Fate
If you wanted to confirm something about that game, or had a thought or a question you wanted to check out, it would be extremely difficult to do so. We are used to things being very easy to Google and for answers to always be accessible, but this is not always the case and has DEFINITELY not been the case for almost all of human history.
The situation in the OP is something I was still able to determine with the help of the internet, but having to go off-web to learn something is a reminder that we are not entitled to information and having it is a privilege. Even something being on one website instead of another can feel like an inconvenience, but the fact it's there at all is something I have come to appreciate.
Great post. Would read again. A post hasn't really sat with me since this one. I was starting to have trouble finding it, and almost found myself in your predicament.
Also, too lazy to go through every reply, but have you verified what they joke about in the movie if it's not "DON'T DEAD OPEN INSIDE"? Just because it's not on Netflix doesn't mean you can't buy the DVD/Blu of a movie you enjoy this much. And if you plan on checking this out, even down the line, please update the thread as it will now be in my subscriptions.
Just the other day I've actually run into this in a who knows what attempt to find what I was looking for. A wikipedia has an entry for it, and reading it, it sounded exceptionally similar, but still not like a same thing - they made no mention of the frightening videos being played for example. I've watched it now, and it doesn't really seem like a same thing - I didn't see the airplane crashing into the mountain :\The smoking one is an episode of Tales From the Darkside, "Bigalow's Last Smoke."
So basically two incredibly obsessive people chose to focus their energy on the type of thing most people shrug off as a deja Vu, Jamais vu, or a brain fart, and decided to write a pseudo creepy pasta?
Why did I read it all?
stop taking acid you fucking nerds
This passage reminds me of how I used to write in high school. Using unnecessarily flowery language thinking it sounded fancy. Like I was writing with a thesaurus open.
It was worse before the internet. There's this psychedelic nightmare from my childhood called the Polkaroo, a freaked out kangaroo thing that probably filled more than a few superhero Underoos in the 80s. That it appeared to people when they were alone and it was accompanied by a strange song was all I remembered. Now I can go on Wikipedia and read about how he's a recurring character from a boring Canadian kids show called The Polka Dot Door that was reaired on PBS. But for about 20 years it was just a niggling doubt about my sanity.
I had a clever retort ready to go but you were banned alreadyI try to not shitpost, but you wasted minutes of my life. Get a fucking life or stop taking drugs.
