From this post : methylbenzene: when i was little and my parents were driving id pretend there was a man/being/thing running alongside the car who had to follow certain rules like “he can only travel by jumping from streetlight to streetlight” or “he can only walk on fences” i was so surprised to find out that other people did similar things
tentaclerapper: i wonder what the underlying psychology behind it is. like its a really specific thing to do but almost everyone did it without telling other kids about it because we all thought it was probably weird or unimportant
condescending-fuckface: I never did this and wow I can’t even tell you how creepy this is to me.
tonilstark: I thought I was the only one.
bogleech: Yeah a huge portion of people have this imaginary traveler or car-chaser. To this day, even when I’M driving, a part of my mind imagines something is hopping and running alongside the car, dodging or simply chopping through every street sign and telephone pole. Sometimes I find myself twitching the muscles in my hand or foot with every “jump,” like I’m controlling the being in a video game.
revereche: I just used a speck on the window and moved my head to control it. I called it “Super Dot” >__>;
I just had a dot myself, leaping from the top of each signpost or telegraph pole to the next.
