It does, however, have some       resemblance to the "sleep paralysis" condition, where people feel "paralyzed"       while transitioning between the dreaming / sleeping state and the waking /       conscious state.        >        > IF this happens often enough, *you may wish to consider* asking aloud: "What       does this writing mean?" and listen for a response.              I'm going to go off the rails for a moment here, but       I do wonder if what I am seeing might be a time        distortion, like I might be seeing my building        in it's abandoned state years from now.              I wasn't dreaming about gangs or abandoned houses       before waking up and seeing this, so it strikes me as odd.               I could understand if these were just random       patterns in my FOV, but the graffiti was referencing       specific gangs in my city in legible text (but as       the kind of scraw gang graffiti typically is).                      "have some resemblance to the "sleep paralysis" condition,"                I've had sleep paralysis before and it terrified me whenever it happened. But       this was different. I didn't feel paralyzed,       and I was able to move around during        the 'gang graffiti' episodes. I did lay        there, feeling a lot of        confusion, wondering why my bedroom       walls were covered in gang graffiti, how       the gangsters broke in and did their       vandalism without me waking up,       wondering if I somehow ended up inside       an abandoned building and how I got there.              It is very unnerving, making me think I was       in some kind of danger, but then I get the       sense of relief when the graffiti fades away       and my bedroom looks normal               --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
