...when the Seahawks Stadium announcer called for the 'moment of silence' in memory of the tragedy in France, my parrot - who had been chattering on my shoulder while I was watching football- went quiet and put her head down till it was over.

No, really...

I wonder how many others here have totally true stories that nobody believes.

I've been thinking about this randomly lately...

 

When I was a senior in high school, I was in my car following a couple of friends down this country road. It was night time, pitch black besides our car lights. At a T in the road, we go to make a right, and right in the middle of the road is what looks like a toddler sitting on their butt. I didn't quite believe my eyes, and kept following my friends. When we got to their house, I asked if they had seen the "toddler". It was two girls, and they were so freaked out they wouldn't even talk about it. We drove back that way and didn't see anything at all, and we never spoke about it again. Weirdest thing I've ever seen.

I was driving to Charlotte with my then girlfriend.  I was sooo fuging hungry and I wanted Chinese food really bad.  It was completely silent no conversation just listening to the radio.  I turned to her and opened my mouth and she looked at me and we both said "Chinese food" at exactly the same time.  It's when I knew she was the one.  I still get chills thinking about it.

That's an amazon.  Mine's a quaker (much smaller).

Quakers have a thing they do called a "quaker stare" where they'll suddenly just stop and stare at their feet.  Bird behaviorists don't know why, but I saw it plenty with my other one that passed away.

My current one? Never saw her do it much, but if that's what it was she chose an amazingly appropriate time to do so.

It's not just about that though.  I'm interested in other people's "nobody will believe me" stories like the ones above.

Why did i open this thread? I have too many but here is one i seem to think i have shared here before.

Many years ago, before i convinced my wife to marry me i worked various jobs.

One job was working rent to own. That chapter alone is a fun one.

I was riding with the bosses brother who i was good friends with to go make a delivery.  Washer dryer set i believe.  Most my life i have always had an uncanny sixth sense about things.  Not on demand but when it happens it's stark. So as we drive down a country road i see a woman walking down the road. I tell my buddy i bet you a dollar we are going to her house? Yeah right he said.

Sure enough after a few miles we show up and a few mins later it was her. As we walked towards the house i smelled a dead animal. It was the country so i shrugged it off.

After we hook things up I'm going over some paperwork with the woman at the kitchen table while a young guy and girl are in the living rooom.  We are making small talk and i joke about smelling the animal and i go you guys doing animal sacrifices out here and she goes ohhh no don't say that.  That's nothing to joke about. I go ok and she then starts to tell me her life story and how it's been tough for the family.  Then...this strong feeling came over me and i go ma'am.  I don't want to scare you, then i put my hand on her arm and i go something very bad is going to happen here in tje next couple of days. I don't know what but be careful.  My buddy is looking at my like i was crazy and she kept wanting me to say more. We leave.

Basically a week later on a Sat I'm in the office and our area was behind the cocounter and we had a window that was tinted and we could see out and nobody see in.

As I'm sitting at my desk i see out front that woman walk towards the door and my heart sank. I knew something happened.  She comes in and goes where is that boy who delivered to my house last week and started crying.  I come out and she hugs me and is crying and goes are you psychic or something and goes that boy in the other room,  shot himself two days later. I was devastated and tried to brush it off as luck and told i was sorry it happened.

i will never forget that.

I have had tons of little things like that happen over the years. I'll be walking through the parking lot of a store and have a random song pop into my head. Get inside the store and yep, that song is playing. I have dreams that seem like deja vu and up to a year later that dream becomes a reality. Then it's like double deja vu. When playing music I've had the feeling that a spirit is with me, once I know for a fact my grandmother visited me like this. It was shortly after she passed, and I was playing Texas Flood by SRV, I got so into the song I started crying and her spirit visited me. 

I get tons of little premonitions that come true too. Nothing major just everyday stuff. Can't control it though it's totally random

      Panthers NFC South Champs!

      Yeah but jumping up in the draft to get a project #2/3 WR is just plain not smart. I am down on XL because the thought was that he could be a potential #1 WR and he has been anything but that so far. Also, the idea of him as a slot is even more upsetting because you pass on several more productive slot guys(McConkey being the most obvious) that were TREMENDOUSLY more NFL ready. I was not a fan of the XL move at the time and I am not a fan of the decision in short term hindsight either. He is just simply going to have to be a guy that proves it on the field to me. McMillian was my #1 WR in this draft and I was a pro-McMillian guy. However, he isn't gonna get treated with baby gloves either. We are in the era of rookie WR's putting up 1k+ yd seasons with regularity. He's going to(barring injury) have to be one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in this class in terms of production. And that's being very generous to him. He really needs to be THE guy from this class. It isn't like he is gonna have a lot of guys taking catches away from him.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      By Tbe · Posted

      Thought this was an interesting moment of candor. See the 2:00 min mark. TD said he made the decision that he wanted T-Mac as our 1st round pick back in January. Dan chimed in and said he made the decision early as well (indicating the same time frame).
