re: Need to Kill Time: What's a story that you've heard that still gives you chills

Why the frick does this thread keep popping up at night

For whoever was asking the end to the Orange story, there is no end. He said he was going to take the orange. He gone


Like the Ted the Caver story

Weave- signs up to protect us


Scared of people telling lies on the internet

Nothing wrong with being skeptical, but it is also wise to question and research the origins of yoga in transcedentalism. From my understanding yoga is used as a tool or device to achieve these higher states of conciousness. I would think 95% of the people taking yoga classes probably start out like the woman in the article with no clue as to it's origins and where it could lead.

You make a good case for signing up for yoga classes.

Except in the Caver story, he said he was going back and then his blog was not updated anymore, leaving you to assume that he never made it back.

In the Orange story, he actually posted I took it., which was a total cop-out to me.

most overrated story in the thread.

It took over a frickin hour to read (in a crappy layout/background that hurts your damn eyes) with a crappy conclusion. Major let down.

best kate upton is fat post ever

So I was told a story this morning that made me immediately think of this thread:

The secretary at my place of work had her daughter at work today. While on a smoke break, she tells me that she just had to teach her daughter to pray to God.

This makes me think back to when I was a kid. I don't remember anyone teaching me how to pray, or beg to God, to deliver me from some evil or bad situation. But, it was intriguing to say the least. So I ask why...

"My daughter hasn't been able to sleep because she says there is a man in her room." I'm hooked now. I'm thinking "a man"? That sounds like one of those stories where a creeper or kidnapper like "stalks his prey".

So I ask: "A man? Like a dream or noises or what?" I'm quietly thinking this little girl's imagination is running a little wild...

She responds: "Well, both a dream and a shadow. She says it speaks to her and keeps her awake and scares her." I'm like well shite, that sounds fricked up. I wasn't expecting the twist that follows:

"But the weird thing is, myself, her dad, and her all dream about the same person. It's a nightmare we all have. She's the only one that sees a shadow when she wakes up though."

The whole time she is telling me this, her daughter is looking at me through the door, holding a rubber band. See, I taught her the first time she came to work with her mom to shoot a rubber band with her fingers. She loves it, and it drives her mom nuts. So every time I see her, she always wants me to shoot the rubber band with her.

So I open the door and say "does that bad man scare you"? She looks up at me with an innocent smile and says "Yeeeesss, he's mean". So I say "Well, when you see that mean man again, shoot him like I taught you with the rubber band" (I say this with a smile on my face). However, her face goes solemn.

She follows this expression with "he said if I tell him to go away or try to hurt him, he will hurt me..."




Needless to say, I'm intrigued. There's obviously something going on here. I'm inclined to meet the mom, mainly because she has no reason to lie about something like this, but most importantly, the truthfulness in the little girl.

I'll keep y'all posted on what goes on. The little girl says she can't describe the shadow in words, and the mom and dad say that they can't ever tell what the man is wearing. I'm gonna try to get the girl to color the man on a piece of paper, and if she does I'll post it on here. More to come...
