Yeah, it was pretty good but he should've had his own thread and not taken over the ghost stories thread for 1000s of words at a time. Speaking of, where the hell did those go? I liked the dumb goon ghost stories.

Are we talking like, water out of a natural spring? Because when I was growing up there was a natural spring that flowed out of the side of a hill on my grandpa's farm. He'd fill empty Jif peanut butter jars with it and let us drink it. So far as I know the spring is still there and he still owns the land. I'm gonna go get some raw water and hit the farmers market.

My dad once drove us for hours in the Arkansas summer to fill up jugs from an old spring he knew of deep in the woods, why? the answer is lost to me now. I had to sit in the truck bed with my sister over miles and miles of broken, dirt roads. It was hot, bumpy hell with no hope of comfort or relief. The landscape was insanely gorgeous.

That was the best goddamn water I ever had, next to drinking straight from the Petit Jean waterfall after hiking for like 6 hours.

If I knew where that spring was now, I'd be making loving bank. The Petit Jean Park should be bottling that poo poo, too.

I once lived in a lovely trailer where the heater would randomly make a high-pitched shrieking noise, usually very late at night. The heating guy took one look at it and was like, "why the gently caress haven't you burned to death, yet?" It was all wires spliced together in a sweet, sweet death clusterfuck.

Anyway, I didn't die in a fire and my solution was banging the poo poo out of the thin walls around the heater until it shut the gently caress up. If my heater was sending me messages, they were clearly warnings to move the gently caress out.

That or it was a Rick and Morty fan and it was just Reeeeeeeeeeeeee-ing from our goddamn future.

It's not time travel, but I was reading the Doomsday Book synopsis and it reminded me of two books I read. The first was The Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson. Basically the Black Death kills 99% of the European population and history changes a whooole lot. I'm still not sure if I like the reincarnation scenes, but they do fit the book.

There's also this kickass sci-fi book called Eifelheim by Michael Flynn where a modern historian is trying to figure out why a small town in Germany was wiped out by the Black Death and never resettled, unlike the other areas around it. It kinda bounces back and forth from the present and the past and is very good.

Just lol if you think I had any sort of insurance as a child, just lol. My parents wish they'd thought of killing me.

That is the ugliest loving bathroom ever and I am so, so happy that this dipshit-rear end motherfucker decorated it like that.

As a woman, I would violently recoil if I walked into that shitshow. It's so loving horrible.

I bought some kind of salted caramel truffle gelato. I don't know how that's gonna go.

All the woods porn I ever found as a teen was real weird poo poo like hairy cavewomen or grandmas or piss fetishes so I dunno, maybe the bears like it.

Just let the bears have their share ok.

Ok but every time my co-workers reference Slenderman or I randomly remember it I'm just reminded about how I was in that thread before Slenderman even existed and how hosed up and crazy it is that two teen girls stabbed another girl because of a stupid photoshop thread on this loving hellsite and it was all in good, creepy fun in the beginning I swear, I was there, I swear it was just funning around, we were just all there to laugh and maybe get a few thrills in and what happened??

I saw the birth of Slenderman and I knew him as the creepypasta he is and I still sometimes take a good long look under street lights because you can never, ever be too sure.
