Vi-aray,
the voice that we love.
Have you ever experienced a glitch in the Matrix?
Well, if you think you have,
consider sending the story my away.
I would love to feature it in an episode.
To do so, just go to as the ravendreams.com
slash submit
or check the links down below, and of course, thank you.
So it's my second day here,
but I have found the basic needed facilities like the toilet,
staircase, lift, emergency exits, and so on.
For the level I'm on, the toilet is one way,
so there is a corner you turn to get to the toilets.
At this corner, there is a camera that points away from the doors.
So, if you have to go to the toilet, you would naturally pass by the camera twice.
I go to the office, set down my things, and went to use the toilet.
I finished my business, and headed back to the office where I see my supervisor
and the other person I'm supposed to be shadowing.
The rest of the people and the team were also standing over my stuff and looking concerned.
When I entered, one of my friends,
who was also an intern at that place,
saw me and honestly said,
oh, she's back, with so much relief.
I looked very confused and said that I had just gone to the toilet.
My supervisor said,
You were in the toilet for two hours?
I was like, what, no, I was in there for 10 minutes max.
My supervisor said,
then where have you been?
We all thought you were missing.
"'Me? What? I just got here and went to the toilet. Did no one go to check the toilet?'
Supervisor said. "'We did, but no one was inside it.'
"'I said what?'
My supervisor responded.
"'Well, at least you're okay. Back to work.'
I was still confused, but brushed it off.
During some free time in between tasks, I went to the security.
officer and asked to see the camera footage of the toilet on my level.
He showed me, and I saw that I had only passed the camera two times, and in between them,
I saw one of my colleagues going into the toilet and coming out a few minutes apart.
I thanked the officer, and went about my work.
So, yeah, I disappeared for two hours in my workplace toilet that only has one entrance and one exit.
Edit, there are so many comments saying if this was the first time.
Sadly, this isn't the first time.
It happens almost once every semester on campus.
The longest I've ever disappeared for is 8 to 10 hours.
My friend is well aware of it.
I've had medical screenings done in psychological evaluations,
but everything seems normal.
The toilet is also well.
one of those with three stalls, but my co-worker swears she opened all three.
Edit 2.
Thanks for the awards.
People have asked about more detail about the camera footage, so I'm not able to get a copy of it due to it, like, actually being a security issue.
But here are some details about it.
The video is timestamped, with the time in hours that it has been recording.
I went in at 8 hours 34 minutes and came out at 10 hours and 30 minutes.
My colleague went in at 9 hours 1 minute and came out at 9 hours 8 minutes.
The camera caught both of us going in and coming out.
I did ask if they could check the rest of the cameras along the corridor from the toilet.
They did, and it all showed that I was in.
missing for two hours.
I specifically checked the camera in front of the office door that looks partially into the office
and the corridors outside.
The camera did see me walking through the corridor to the toilet and back from the toilet.
The only thing odd was that the camera had shifted a bit for a few seconds to a minute.
Like, it kind of glitches kind of thing.
It was at around nine hours.
12 minutes mark.
But there was no way I could have exited the toilet and walked back to it without the other
camera at the office door catching me.
Or, for the fact that I could have gone out past the office, or walked around and went back
into the toilet in about a minute.
I have to start off by saying that there were absolutely no drugs or alcohol or anything
of that kind involved, and we were as sober as well.
one can be.
Okay, so this was about two years ago.
Not last summer, but the one before that.
Me and my boyfriend, 24, 25 at the time,
went to visit his grandma in the countryside for a few days.
One night, probably around 8 p.m.,
we went into the garden to relax
and look at the fireflies that were starting to show up.
The sun had set, but the sky was still a pale blue,
not really dark yet.
Grandma has a bed outside in the garden,
used basically as a couch,
so we decided to just lay there for a while.
At one point, probably just a few minutes later,
I noticed very clearly a pale,
white grid shape in the sky.
Wondering what the hell I'm seeing, I start asking my boyfriend,
do you see, and he cuts me off?
That grid? Yeah.
So it's not like one influenced the other.
We both clearly saw it.
We joked around that the sky is fake and we're in the matrix.
We often have matrixy experiences.
So it really wasn't anything shocking, but this has honestly been the cherry on top of everything else.
I don't remember thinking of taking a picture or maybe we thought it wouldn't be visible enough,
and it's pointless to even try.
Not sure, but we just kind of accepted it and shrugged it off.
Then we had dinner and went to bed.
Two years later, and I have never seen it again, and I've tried.
We mention it now and again.
Like, hey, do you remember the grid?
Yeah, I haven't seen it either, etc.
I love looking at the sky in general.
Clouds, shapes, colors, stars, whatever it may be,
and yet I never saw it again.
Not even a glimpse.
I tried to find similar cases online,
but for some reason I only found people on drugs,
like psychedelics seeing grids and honeycomb shapes in the sky.
But as I said before, we were very much sober.
Every time I remember it, I really don't know what to even think or how to feel.
Why haven't I been able to see it again?
And what could it have been?
I've been theorizing if it's a force field, or maybe a projection of sorts,
and the sky really isn't real, and that was just a glitch?
I really don't know, but I hope someone sober has seen it as well,
and can maybe shed some light.
I'd like to start by saying that I was never one to believe in the Matrix
or anything of the sort until this experience.
I'm trying to come to some sort of explanation, aside from a glitch,
but I've not been able to find any resolution to this.
It's not scary, spooky, or some time traveler thrown through spacetime to our dimension or timeline.
It's just odd.
I was driving through the streets near my house at around 9.30 p.m., so it was dark and oddly quiet for a weekend night.
I live in a college town in Southern California.
with a vibrant nightlife, so not seeing a single car or pedestrian for the first three miles on major roads was extremely unusual.
I didn't think much of it until I came down a large hill and around the bend at the bottom.
It was a sweeping left bend with a speed limit of 45.
I saw tail lights ahead right at the end of the bend.
I noticed I was getting closer and fast.
and I checked my speed, 45 miles per hour.
I slowed down quick, and I approached the cars ahead of me.
I slowed down from 45 to 10, and the cars were stopped.
No stop lights, stop signs, accident hazard animals, nothing.
I realized they were all stopped in perfectly spaced out intervals,
alternating between the left and right lane.
I felt an odd sensation through my body, like a static vibration.
What I would compare to TV static emanating from my bones, the closer I crept up to the cars.
All the cars were vehicles that did not come with a manual option, so they were all automatic transmission vehicles.
None of the cars had brake lights on.
Stopped without engaging the brakes.
The sound of the cars were non-existent.
As I pulled up next to the car in the left lane, I crept up to look at the person in the car,
and as soon as I broke that perfectly spaced out interval, all the cars began to move at once.
No engine starting, no gears being changed or handbrakes being disengaged,
just a sudden movement by all seven cars.
There was no slinky effects like traffic always has.
All seven cars in front to reach.
began to move at the exact same time.
That static feeling I had
wore off the further I got from where the cars had stopped.
I passed the cars once I had a chance,
and all the drivers were expressionless.
They didn't look over at me,
didn't show any sign of acknowledgement of me,
or what just happened.
Is this anything any of you could give insight to,
or know of happening.
I used to work in a grocery store when I was 17.
I lived in a small town at the time,
and the store was right on the highway,
kind of for convenience.
Travelers were popping in to grab snacks, etc.
We had a parking bay out in front that was never full,
and didn't have a trolley returned thing,
so most people either pushed the trolleys into the store,
store or just left them floating around the car park.
The store was also technically a mall, since it had a wide corridor that had a post office
at the end and a cafe to the left.
Because the store was the biggest business, we used to put pallets of water and stuff along it.
Okay, that's enough backstory.
It was the middle of the day on a weekend, and it was super quiet.
because there was a dust storm outside.
Like, I was only getting one customer every five minutes.
So, I was just standing there and cleaning up the checkout,
when the door is open and this old guy walks in pushing a trolley.
He's wearing a gray-blue shirt and jeans.
He then asks me,
Is it okay if I leave this trolley just here?
While pointing to a pallet in the mall.
I remember being shocked that he had a bit of a British accent,
which you don't really hear around rural Australia.
Anyways, I said, yeah, leave it, that's cool.
And he heads into the store.
Suddenly, there's a small rush.
About three or four customers come through all at once,
and I deal with them pretty quickly.
And just as I'm finishing up with the last one,
I hear the store doors open, and the same guy walks in, wearing the exact same clothes,
pushing the same type of trolley.
I'm just kind of staring in a sense of deja vu because it hasn't clicked for me yet.
It wasn't until he asked,
Is it okay if I leave the trolley just here?
With the British accent, that I realized he had come through.
between him coming in the first time
no one else had come into the store to grab the trolley and go shopping
and I would have seen it because the trolley was directly in my line of sight
but when he came in the second time
the trolley wasn't there the only exit is through my checkout
as all entrances are one way and unused checkouts are blocked off
also I highly doubt that there was a
more than one trolley in the car park to begin with since I would have gone and grabbed it.
It was just a very unnerving experience, and I have no idea how to explain it.
I tried to get my friend to debunk it, but we couldn't come up with a logical explanation.
I apologize and advanced for the wordiness. I'm not much of a writer or a storyteller,
So this one happened a few months back, and at the time, I didn't know about this page or glitches in general.
I just thought it was a strange occurrence, but after reading some of the stories here, I thought maybe it was a glitch.
So I work on power lines, and one day I showed up to the state park, where we currently had our trucks parked.
It's still slightly dark as I get out of my car and head to the work truck with my lunchbox.
Some of the guys had already started backing a truck up to hook up to a trailer, or something,
and instead of going straight to my truck, I went over to help them.
While doing this, I set my lunchbox down somewhere.
After helping them, I go to my truck and get it started, and I do my daily checks on it.
We're getting ready to leave, and I realize I don't have my lunchbox in the cab,
so I get out and start looking for it.
At this point, none of our trucks had left yet,
and I was having a hard time finding it.
I mentioned it to a coworker that I was searching for it, and he helped me look.
I told the other guys not to leave yet so I could check their trucks as well.
Nothing.
I checked all of them.
plus the spare trailers, and anything else that we had in the parking lot.
I then went back to my car to make sure that I hadn't forgotten it in there.
No lunchbox.
I don't want to hold up production any longer,
so I give up and say I'll check the trucks in the parking lot later when it's fully light out.
We roll out to a different spot, that maybe ten minutes away,
and I follow everyone else so I could see if,
it fell off one of them going down the road.
Still, nothing.
I check everything again later when it's fully light out,
and I still cannot find it.
It never turned up anywhere,
and I never saw it on the side of the road,
so it couldn't have fallen off the side of a truck.
My coworker and I made jokes that one of the newer guys stole it and ate my lunch,
but that was really just to make light of a strange situation.
that we couldn't explain.
Again, I'm not sure if it's a glitch, but it was definitely a strange occurrence.
A few months ago, I woke up in the middle of the night, feeling especially fidgety and restless.
I had this strong urge to go outside, and while I don't normally listen to these kinds of impulses,
This time, I did.
I went outside, brought a stool to the middle of the yard,
and sat down and stared at the stars.
I knew I was going to see something interesting.
My body was tense and was crackling with it.
Soon enough, I saw a strange red light moving across the sky.
There was no tail, it didn't break up.
It was just this weird, energy-laden light that appeared moving directly across my line of vision and then blinked off.
It took my breath away.
But I'm a logical person.
I immediately thought, okay, that was cool, but it was something natural.
It had to be.
Maybe it was a shooting star.
I haven't seen a shooting star in so long that,
I'm not really sure what one looks like.
At that very moment,
a bright, white, shooting star
streaked across the sky,
right where I was watching.
I was pretty spooked.
I yelled,
thank you, and ran inside.
But ultimately, I felt very calmed,
like I had seen what I was meant to see,
and I fell asleep.
I also had the immediate sense that someone was trying to get through to me, and I thought I was a dummy for doubting the first light.
Like, okay, you want a shooting star, well, here you go.
It definitely felt like I was bumping up against the edges of something strange.
This happened this past Thursday.
I work at my college.
I'm a teacher's assistant.
that day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
And I honestly had a great day as I got a lot of work done.
I still live with my parents, and when I got home,
my mother had dinner ready and we all sat down to eat.
We were chitch chatting, when she suddenly asks,
So what were you doing over in Townville, which is a fake city name, today?
Immediately, I was confused.
I had been at work all day long, so I asked what she meant.
She said,
Your dad and I saw you at the intersection in Townville,
next to where the middle school is.
It was your car, and me saw you in it.
My car is fairly distinguishable as it has a significant dent in the back bumper.
I thought maybe whoever it was was just passing by,
and they were seeing things.
but apparently the car was on the other side of the intersection,
stopped at the light like they were,
and that's when they noticed it,
and the other car was able to go first
because my parents still had to wait for the people turning left in front of them.
So they definitely got a good look as my car passed by,
and they said it was definitely me,
and they saw the dent and everything.
but I was 100% at work the entire day.
I told them that I have co-workers that can vouch for me that they were seeing things,
but also like both of them?
How did both of their lying eyes deceive them?
And why would they see my doppelganger?
Basically, now my parents are suspicious and think that I'm hiding something from them,
which, I mean, I am, but...
It has nothing to do with this.
About four years ago, I was working a 12-hour overnight shift in a taxi office.
The office was a port-a-cabin in the car park of a bowling alley slash cinema,
which is in the middle of an industrial estate.
There's also a bar and restaurant in the building,
and it's very busy up until about midnight.
Once the place closed and everyone left,
I was the only person around for a few hundred meters in every direction.
It was probably about 4 a.m. or so, and the lines were really quiet.
I'd been sitting, watching videos on YouTube for hours,
when out of nowhere I hear a loud and clear in my right ear from slightly behind me,
a voice saying,
ping.
It kind of sounded like the notification sound on the messenger app,
but the person really emphasized every letter of the word.
The voice sounded like it was trying to freak me out.
My heart jumped,
and I turned around and was like,
what the hell?
About to attack the person who had snuck up on me.
There was no one there.
I was in a locked port of cabin.
The door was in front of me, and there was no way someone shouted it from outside.
It sounded like someone put their mouth right up to my ear.
I even looked out the window to check to see if someone was there,
even though I knew it didn't make sense.
I thought about the possibility of it being an auditory hallucination,
but apparently, if it was, it would have come from inside my head,
rather than from a specific location around me.
So that was this week's glitch in the Matrix collection.
Hopefully, you all enjoyed it.
I know I did.
It's always a damn good time with these stories.
Always an interesting collection,
despite, regardless of the week it's in,
or regardless of the stories,
these are always really bizarre to me.
If you did enjoy it,
please consider hitting that thumbs up button
and subscribing to the channel.
If you are new, if you're not new,
back. You can also leave me a comment with the, for some reason, randomly beloved,
word of the week. Last week's word was mystery. And by golly, y'all did an amazing job with your
comments. On the screen now is all of the comments I received from mystery within the time frame.
I think I'm going to start cutting these off on Fridays so I can work on the video over the
weekend. So, yeah, that's said, look at all these
wonderful sentences. Y'all are amazing. Thank you so, so
very much. Now, this week,
it's a little easier. Mystery was a bit of an easy one. Haircut a few weeks
ago was a little more difficult, but this week it's a little easier.
The word of the week is admit.
ADM-I-T.
Means to grant to be real, valid, or true, acknowledge, or
concede or to disclose or confess. So I'll take either definition, like to admit a secret to somebody
or to admit entry to somebody. And any other forms such as admitted or admittance. It's up to you.
However you want to write it, just make sure it contains the word admit or some form of said word.
All that said, my beautiful, beautiful friends, I hope that you're having a wonderful day.
It is November somehow.
Terrifying.
I posted on Twitter yesterday, last night, that I ordered something that had two-day shipping,
and the delivery date was November 3rd, and I am having an existential crisis because of that.
How is it already November?
Holy cow.
Anyway, have a great day, everyone.
I will see you on the next video, but until then, sleep well.
