Just a little shady episode 12 take one You know what the thing is what I Have went rolled about 76 times and I Bernie I love my dogs. I Love them, too But I'm so sick of this hair If you see hair, no you don't I love them too. But I'm so sick of this hair.

If you see hair, no you don't. No you don't. Mm-mm. And that's that. And that's the facts. Oh gosh. Did you throw the clapper? I did.

Wow, it wasn't even shaking the house this time? No, I aimed for the carpet. The wood floor thanks you. Thank goodness. I'm learning, I'm learning. Okay, let's get into this episode. We need to start. We gotta name the bird.

We do need to name the bird if you pet that a instagram poll and we got great suggestions however apparently instagram deletes the responses after 24 hours so we're gonna go from what we remember and if we come up with something better after i feel like he could get a new name every episode yeah he can be whoever he wants to be whoever we want him to be um so a couple that we got this time were salem raven damon peter birdie birdie was a good one rebecca rebecca was the best one yeah i think we're gonna go with rebecca you have to say it like that too that's the only way to address him um so dude this bird he's been through a lot the way, because this is the bird that Wolf got a hold of last Halloween. And I had to save him from Wolf.

So, speaking of dog issues, the damn fur is all over me all the time. I know, they're on me too, amongst other things. For those of you that might not have already caught it you know my sweater i think your computer is blocking it good as it should that's what i was trying to go for here but my sweater you know in spooky fashion has a skeleton jack o'lantern a bat ranch from b-dubs a witch yeah so that that's that's your long answer for explaining the ranch on your shirt yeah your brand new shirt you might not be a fraud but you're a mess um no i'm just kidding because to be honest, if we're doing it, I've got wing sauce on my sleeve as well. Mm-hmm.

So. One and the same. I'm no better than you. But, oh, but I have my scream. Mr. Ghostface. Brittany, that's the generation under us. This guy is scream. Hmm.

This guy is scream to me is screamed i don't know him he screamed you do that's how you know him don't even i've seen the face i've never i don't i don't know his story so my scream crew neck says no you hang up i thought it was so clever oh peak comedy and i. And I have my. Don't show your toes. No, I'm covering my toes. No free feet pics. But I got ghost socks on to match my Mr. Ghost Face, Mr. Scream. So, yeah.

So, we committed. We're doing it. We're here. We might have food stains, but we wore the sweaters. So, yeah. That's pretty much that. You know what else from last week um a lot of things i know i know we gotta get to the peter thing we gotta get to but

i thought about this we're eating we're obviously eating we've got we've got ranch on you we've got ranch on you. We've got sauce on me. And there's no denying that. And I did say that one of my hobbies was eating and drinking. And it's just I had to take a long look in the mirror after last episode. Why? You had some other good hobbies. Drawing. No, those were great. Okay.

But I feel like I have more hobbies. But you know what the thing is? When you become an adult, I think a lot of things that used to be hobbies just become chores. Yeah. No, you're genuinely right. Yeah. And so I feel like working out, cooking, doing makeup, those are all hobbies and i do them regularly one might even say once a day and i think i just forget that those are hobbies because now you're an adult you have to do them yeah so those are those are hobbies i enjoy, but I also have to do them.

You heard it, Harry, first. She does other things. My sweater would say otherwise. So would yours, but that's all right. And so I really confidently looked the camera in the eyes last week and I said, and I said, it's Peter Evans. And then I said,

I followed it up and I said, I'm so, I'm so proud. First of all, in my life, Brittany, I don't think I've ever said I'm so proud of myself. I mean,

I've done some things and I don't think I've ever said I'm so proud, but that time I was proud of myself and I was wrong and you're so wrong. So we get out of, you know, filming that last week's episode. Mind you, your proudness, if that's a word. Are you about to say it lasted? Yes, it continued. It's like we're like getting up out of our seats and like taking off our headphones and Haley's over here like, I'm so proud I knew that. Peter Evans. I think it's one of those things where I, this happens often where we'll be talking about something and I cannot think of the person's name to save my life. Gun in my head, you could ask me. What?

And I would have been wrong. In this case, you would have put the gun and I would have gaslighted you. And I would have been like, it's Peter Evans. And you would have put it down. I would have believed you. I believed you. You would have holstered it and you would have said, you're right. And, you know, you believe me.

You lit me up. You fueled the fire. You fueled the fire last week because i thought i rolled the clip back i thought i was right and um so we get out of the episode and we're googling you know for our weekly recap or what's it what the hell the supplemental materials oh my brain i don't know why you're calling them then either the pictures for whatever bro um supplemental i don't know i feel like i need to put my pinky up when we say that when we type that i'll put my pinky up um the supplemental materials you were typing like that earlier i know the episode two you were like um so anyways anyways so we're looking this up and i type in peter evans and google and to be fair google knew what i meant

thank god for google popped up just who i thought just as we except just as we expected peter evans right there but no so anyways i'm clicking through the pictures and i keep seeing evan peters underneath and i'm going you know evan comma i'm like you know what that could be true and it was true and so we did get kind of quiet for a minute out i know and you were like bernie i have to tell you something we were wrong we cried i was so scared you were gonna say we have to record the whole episode re-erecord the whole episode. Because it's also funny, and I looked you dead in the face last week, too. I looked you dead in the face and I said, I've never been wrong.

That's the only time. No. And so, anyways, I'll stick to that. Okay. I will gaslight my way into through life just gaslight your way through life we've learned anything from the shady story it's peter evans and if you saw my instagram for the for the podcast there was a poll and it said peter evans or evan peters and you know what the correct answer was peter evans our man and it will continue to be that way um and so yeah we're still we've still

never been wrong and oh my gosh and you know what else so we conclude the last week's episode yeah you know I ranted about Evan's sleeping habits yeah oh yeah and I was passionate and I will be still today but the best part was so way earlier in the day I connected to a bluetooth speaker and it was on upstairs so all day it was on I didn't know and because it was pretty it was quiet down. So all day it was on. I didn't know. And because it was pretty, it was quiet down on the main floor, but upstairs it was blasting. And so, you know, I don't even know what's on. We finish and it was pretty late when we finished the episode. And so you leave and I go upstairs and as I'm on like the fourth step, I start hearing Blair, like blasting music.

I'm like, is Evan jamming? And then I start getting closer. I'm like, no way. I left the music on all day. No. To no surprise. You're. Sound asleep.

Like a baby. And I'm like. To music? Here's the thing. You know. What was playing? I don't know. I think it was a Halloween playlist.

So. So. I correct myself again. He can not only sleep in the silence, he can apparently sleep through the loudest music. Okay. I mean, I have questions because, like, why didn't he just turn it off? I had my phone. The speaker? Yeah.

He just didn't, I don't know. He could have asked. He could have asked. He was just being polite. He couldn't turn it off, but I could have, but he just didn't ask. I think he thought we were still recording, so he didn't. He was trying to be, you know, mindful as you talked crap about him. It's also his birthday, so.

Happy birthday, Evan. Happy birthday, Evan. Here we are again. Yeah, so that happened after the last one. You can't with this. I know. It's just bad. And I guess I'll.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah yeah let's circle back to that what you i didn't maliciously jumping in front of a baby carriage you guys i was focused. First of all, let's get into the truth. What? You were why we were out. You were why we were at the mall. No, no, no, no, no. Do you want to get into other truth? No, no, no, no. Do you want to know why you were at the mall with me on that day?

No. Because we could expose you right now for that. Go ahead. We were buying Evan's birthday present. Oh, shame on me. It wasan's birthday present and and it was it was evan's birthday it was in two days it was in two days i had two days and i was doing returns in a timely manner you literally had to get story credit because you were not in time so busy'm busy. I'm busy. Okay.

I got a lot going on. So, I'm focused. You know, I'm trying to be a good girlfriend. I'm looking for presents. You bought yourself a present. In my size. And so, I was, you know, walking around the store and in my head I got this idea of an outfit you know I'm styling I'm thinking of things where were we forever I'm creating no we were at Abercrombie oh yeah and so anyway so I thought we were I thought of something that I needed to get

and I was like wow it's crowded in here I need to hurry because I'm not trying to wait six hours in this line bringing that line come on and so my head's down I'm thinking hard and I go to turn the corner and this mom just with the baby stroller out of nowhere and I honestly I think there are multiple kids in the stroller no there was one child in the stroller and one child was standing and walking with. Because I couldn't reach the high shelf at Amber Cumpy. So I was trying to signal Amy to help me. Which she did. Good friend.

But she literally thought no one saw or witnessed this. So she's like looking around like, yeah, no one saw me. Meanwhile so she's like looking around like yeah no one saw me meanwhile i'm cracking up well yeah yeah i thought i did think no one saw i did think no one saw because you know why bernie it happened so i swear to god that mama going 25 miles per hour and i didn't you see what i'm saying because i didn't, I didn't even know there were two kids. I thought the kids were combined. That's how quick she was. That's how quick she went by me.

So it was not all on me, but I didn't hit them. It was a close call, but it was all safe. Everybody was fine. It was fine. It was fine. And so let's, let's, what was that about? Okay. It was fine. And so let's, let's, what was that about? Um, okay. And so let's do a little weekly recap because we have something juicy to say. Do we?

You know how they say that one might say. One. That there are a lot of calculated moves. Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. By me. That was not what one would say. I wouldn't say that. You're freaking me out.

Okay, okay, okay. What are you calculating? I don't know. Go on. I'm not. Yeah, okay. Um, so, you know, Adam Levine cheated, was caught, all that good stuff last week. Two weeks ago? Last week. Two weeks ago?

Two weeks. Whatever. And so he addressed that right away. Mm-hmm. well it just so happens that maroon 5 announced a las vegas residency for 2023 to the surprise of no one why is it just so happened just so happened I don't know. It's a thing that every time there's some kind of scandal, there's some kind of announcement just around the corner. Here's the thing. I don't think the scandal itself was planned

because you'd have to be a real evil person to throw your pregnant wife under the bus for like. That is real evil person to throw your pregnant wife under the bus for like that is real evil but but what i don't know you said it first i was gonna say but i think him responding so quickly was calculated because why else would he respond that quickly? Yeah. Unless he had something that he wanted to try to save face for. But yeah, I do think that part at least. And if the other part was planned, unless she was fine with it.

And she was in on it because she was like, more people are going to go see the residency now. I don't know if they will, though. He kind of got pooped on for that. I don't know if they will though he kind of got pooped on for that i don't know i could have said that in such a more crazy way i could have said something so much better than that okay um another thing that happened this The Smile movie, which is a creepy horror movie, did some great marketing. So I don't know if anyone has seen it, but they had actors go to Major League Baseball games and stand behind home plate creepily smiling because they knew that that home plate would

be on camera a lot and just staring into the camera creepily smiling and they also did it on good morning america they had the person outside the window creepily smiling to be on morning america i'm just saying those poor camera people that had to be filming and watching and seeing this even if they knew it was planned and a part of the greater marketing good but you have to think at first they were probably so confused because at first they probably didn't know what was going on and then after a while they were probably like okay this is I would be freaked out I would feel imagine the baseball players trying to focus and they're just somebody creepily like was that too much don't do it to me please ew come on now I'm

gonna be freaked out um so yeah so they did that but I actually heard that it's very dark very scary and supposedly if you have mental health issues I saw somebody did a trigger warning on TikTok because I guess it's pretty dark with that's what I've been hearing it's very traumatizing just be aware of that But great marketing. And then also, apparently, Casey Anthony, who was accused of murdering her two-year-old daughter 11 years ago, decided that she needs to do a documentary to tell her side and you know what i i when i was looking this up 40 million people watched her trial are you serious 40 million people that's not the whole trial but parts of it parts of it yeah like in total 40 million i. I knew, I don't know. That's a lot of people to be watching one trial. And I think it's really alarming that they're not able to take anything that's set in this documentary to court. Because, I mean, case closed.

Yeah, so you can't, in the U.S., there's double jeopardy. So that means that she could go on this documentary, say, yep, I did it. I killed her. This is what I did. And she could not get in trouble in the court of law. That's insane. I don't know if people would like that. I don't think it would end well in that situation. But she could technically do that

it's such a wild rule such a ow i'm all right are you okay all right just adjusting um so yeah so that's going on this past week and And then I clearly need to clear up some, I need to clear up some rumors. Some rumors? I started it myself. About the hugging. What happened? So you know how I said close friends don't really hug? Yeah, until I hugged you the week later and it was a whole thing.

Well now, it's being used against me and here's what i'll say if we would normally hug just hug me don't because this is what's happening now so for example my sister who we see each other a lot so we don't normally hug high and by right since i said oh you know i would normally hug she makes it a point to hug me and bring it up too oh you don't want to hug hug and then other people are like feeling bad if they hug me by now they'll hug everyone else don't like it and they'll be like oh you don't want to hug and I'm like no it's fine like it's fine I swear so that just need to be cleared up it's okay um yeah because then I felt bad that I even said that I was like no that mainly applies to like Brittany and she doesn't follow it anyways so like apparently apparently um

and then so for this week's ask me anything yeah I really liked this one so this was just things you wish you knew when you were younger and I feel like we could even kind of drag this out because we thought of quite a few things we wish we knew when we were younger. We did. So we'll do like one topic now. And then if you guys want to hear more examples of things we wish we knew, we'll keep it going in future episodes. Episodes. Episodes.

And so we'll do this one. I always lose my voice right at this part. You do. I was screaming at a Lions game yesterday. And same old Lions. It was a good game, though. It was, I guess. So for this Ask Me Anything, things we wish we knew when we were younger the first one is symptoms of mental health

issues rather than just labels yeah and so we were talking about this because looking back I remember hearing all the things of there's anxiety, there's depression, there's, you know, whatever, all these problems. And you're not really told what those manifest as when you're younger. And I think it's very different how symptoms present when you're younger versus now, because it's a different time in your life. And I think a lot of parents, even parents who know that kids struggle with mental health, aren't used to it presenting that way. And I think a lot of times, teens, it gets chalked up to like, oh, well, it's their hormones. They're teenagers. Of course,

they're combative or mean or you know having an attitude but I look back myself and I think knowing what I know now I knew what anxiety was when I was in high school but at that time I didn't know that that was what I was actually feeling so when I would go to school and, and teens have a lot to be anxious about, but I don't think they realize that that's the feeling. Your grades, your friends, how do you look, you know, a lot getting to school, you know, whatever, extracurriculars. And I know for me, every more, I would, I would present, I think, as mean or mad. I would get mad because I didn't really understand what I was feeling.

I used to be even more upset with myself after the fact because I'm like, why am I being so mean? But it was really just anxiety manifesting as being mad because I didn't understand it. And when I would go to school in the morning, I would get so mad if I was late, whoever was like driving me, or even when I was driving myself, I'd be in such a bad mood, not realizing that I was so anxious to get to school on time to whatever, get to class. And I, I think that it would be more helpful to explain what the symptoms could feel or present as than saying, yeah, even if you tell a kid, yeah, you do have anxiety. Okay, great. But then what does that mean? You know, what does that feel like? What that look like a hundred percent so I that's the one thing I wish when we were younger that we would have known instead of just you know yeah there

is this or you can always get help for this or you know what I'm saying no I totally get that because I was diagnosed with anxiety when I was younger and I knew I have anxiety but could I fully explain that not really I knew that it took me a long time to finish my homework because I would get so anxious about it that I wanted every single like drawing I did for art class to be perfect I needed every line to be precise and I would stay up till late in the night working on my homework, which was bizarre. And I think what part like led to me figuring out that I had anxiety. But aside from that, I think it was really hard for me to be able to articulate, communicate, understand what was anxiety and what was normal but you know what's

funny even when you say that is about the filling in things perfectly and everything because I was like that and looking back I can say wow that's actually true that was I was so anxious and that's how it manifested but even at time, I think that kids don't realize that because I would have never known. I was the same way. If I had to fill in bubbles on a bubble sheet, had to be perfectly filled in. I would take notes in class, come home and rewrite the notes. Same. I did the same exact thing. And I think, and it's stuff as simple as that, but even not knowing that it, and again, like I think it's always, oh, well you're, that's anxiety or that's, but when you're young, you don't need to hear that label necessarily.

It's more of what you're being mean because you're anxious or stressed about what, and then getting to the root of it more than just saying, oh yeah, that's what it is. Because like I said, even as an adult looking back, I'm like, oh my God, that was what I was feeling. But when I was younger, I would have never thought about it like that. And I just, yeah. So I think it would be more helpful to understand the symptoms instead of just the names of things but i do think now i don't know if school has changed at all but i know that now the generation under us is much more aware of symptoms than way more yeah but i think when you're younger it would be helpful to know those too yes and then the other thing and

we've talked about this before too I think that I wish when we were younger as early as possible we would have known and been explained what certain mental or physical disabilities looked like. Because looking back as an adult, and I think everyone can relate to this, and it's literally so unfortunate that this is the case, but when you look back and you think about kids who were bullied in school, almost every single person that was bullied had a mental or physical disability. And as an adult, you can recognize it. But I think it needs to be explained to kids so young in kids' terms. That's fine. But I think if kids were more aware and explained that this person has this, it might look like this.

They might do this. They cannot help it. And here's some things you can react or say. Or, you know, this could be you. How would you want to be treated? They don't have a choice. And if they act this way or do this thing they can't control it like anything just to explain to kids what it is because I

think it would prevent so much bullying that because kids just frankly do not understand when people are different but I think if it was explained better that they can't help it, I think kids can be compassionate. Kids can be open-minded. And I think if it's explained in a way that they can understand why this kid is different, it would just prevent so much hurt for that kid going forward. I just really wish that was the case. And so I wish when we were younger we knew what those things were, because like I said, I think kids can be compassionate and they just need to be informed. And even if it's in kids terms, even if, you know, if it's an activity that they somehow learn it through, I just think it'd be super helpful I know I wholeheartedly agree this is something we talk about a lot and I think it's very disheartening to look back and be able to

recognize those things and to know that they still happen today scares the crap out of me yeah for your kids and and you yeah it's just it's it's very sad situation and I like I said I just think that even if it's not let's say elementary school because I know kids in elementary school do bully kids that are different still but if you don't think they can understand that at that age, then middle school, when they can't. There comes a point where if somebody would have said, you are just being a bad person if you make fun of them because they cannot control it and this is what they have. I think there is a point where a kid can understand that yes and just like we can look back now and say oh my god and so i don't know i just i wish that was something we knew when we were younger and i i hope that one day schools

will kind of fathom that because and even you know and even still like there are um special classes for kids but there's always an integration and I think that if there's when there's that integration these kids need to know it's it's like it's like parents or teachers or however the whoever decides that it's like they're scared to say it they don't want to separate the kids somehow and they maybe they feel by pointing out this difference or giving this difference a label that it won't help the situation but honestly I do I do think it would. Yeah. I wish we would have known. Yeah. But that's just our one first ask me anything, things we wish we knew when we were younger. And like I said, if you guys want to hear more things we wish we knew when we were younger,

we do have like a little list going, so we can always go back to that. Sorry, I'm losing my voice again. No, you're okay. I think with that, we're going to get into some spooky stories, some shady spooky stories. And so, we're doing something a little different this time. We're not going to totally react to the stories because for the next three weeks in our spooky episodes, one out of three stories, in this case, it's one out of the first two, was submitted by me.

And you guys have to guess which one is my spooky story. And they're true stories. And we'll tell you which one was my story in the following episode after we read them. So with that, I'm going to read the first spooky story. Let's do it. About two years ago, my boyfriend went up to his aunt and uncle's house to stay for the weekend and hunt during the beginning of hunting season. Him and his dad had been doing this for years, and they would always stay in the basement of the house while they were there. One night, my boyfriend says he has woken up from a dream of a man standing over him wearing clergy apparel,

pressing on his chest with an item he assumed in his dream was a cross. When he woke up, he could still intensely feel the pressure on his chest and the presence of the man for about 30 seconds after being awake. When he called me and told me about it the next day is when he realized that the man from the dream resembled the man that his great- great grandma used to tell him about. In the last few years of his great grandma's life, she was 101 when she passed, she would always talk about a man that would visit her. Everyone around her thought she was just getting older and chalked it up to her talking about this man because of her age. She would often say the man, Mr. James, as she called him, was mostly nice to her, but would sometimes be mad at her and get mean.

My boyfriend's mom would often have to tell the imaginary friend to leave the grandma alone. As it turns out, my boyfriend was staying in the room directly beneath where his great-grandma used to be and see Mr. James at his aunt and uncles. Terrifying. So we can rate this one on the spooky meter still.

I think this is like an 8 out of 10. I agree. I feel like it's an 8 out of 10. It's pretty spooky. Moving into spooky story number two. So something weird happened to me the other day. I was sleeping and I had a dream about a weird guy staring at me quiet or in a quiet, dark hallway. And I'm not even sure what I was doing there or where I was going. I just froze

and I saw when I saw him and I didn't have the power to run away. It felt like I was paralyzed or something. I woke up and I was like, oh, what a weird dude and I didn't give it a second thought. Minutes later, I saw a post on Instagram about a guy who appeared in a bunch of nightmares in 2006. Multiple people saw him in their dreams and they were terrified of him. Then I looked at his picture and it was the same dude I saw. It's been tripping me out lately and I'm not sure what to think about it. What are your opinions? So on a spooky meter i would give this like a six or seven i agree i

think a six i would say a six okay but this is real that a man was appearing and has been appearing in dreams since 2006 and it's the same man supposedly and so i found some theories as to why this could happen and so i'm going to read the theories of why this could happen so one theory is that the man is an example of Carl Jung's concept of the unconscious archetypal image people see during very difficult life situations. Another theory is that this man was a manifestation of God. Another theory is that a corporation was mentally conditioning multiple people to dream the same man. Another theory is that a corporation was mentally conditioning multiple people to dream the same man. Another theory is that some people dreamt the man only after learning about others seeing him. And then the last theory was that because it is hard for humans to remember people's faces in dreams,

people are inaccurately using the identity of this man to describe the person in their dreams. Which makes sense. Some of these theories. It does. It adds up. And I'm telling you one thing, if I see this guy in my dream tonight, I'm not going to be cool with it. I'm going to be upset.

Yeah. We'll put a picture of the man in the, so you guys can see him okay and then this last story is no chance that it was me but it is spooky so i'm gonna read it me and a friend of mine both got catfished by an old colleague who turned out to be a stalker i'm a male 29 and my friend is a female, 27. We were both colleagues working at a call center like six or seven years ago, and we quickly became friends. For the sake of the story, we'll call her Sarah. A while later, we had a new starter at work, and I was tasked with teaching him how our systems worked and what work responsibilities we had at the call center. We can call this new guy, who was also a male, 29, Tommy. Me and Tommy became good friends rather

quickly. We had similar interests like World of Warcraft and horror films. Later on, me, Tommy, and Sarah were all pretty good friends and would often hang out together when we'd have after work events. We even started hanging out outside more of work, going to cinemas, bars, parks, etc. I just need to mention too that Sarah had a boyfriend, long time of like six years at the time, and they're still together to this day, while Tommy was single. Although me and Sarah would sometimes joke with Tommy asking why he was single because he was really good looking. He used to model from time to time, so we thought it was a bit funny that he was so good looking yet had a hard time with girls. He'd mentioned he'd only been in two relationships in the past, but I didn't want to judge. Some people just have

a hard time socially, and that's totally fine, of course. Fast forward a bit, and Sarah comes rushing to me during a lunch break at work on a regular day. She tells me that Tommy has just confessed his love to her through an emotional breakdown. Sarah had rejected him, of course, since she already was in a relationship, but she said she did it respectfully. Tommy didn't handle it well, apparently, and started crying and stormed off. He took a week off work after that, and then another week, and then another. Our manager would ask us if we knew what happened to him, but he wouldn't text or call me so I had no clue how he was doing for some time. During this time, Sarah had found a new job and switched work. After she left, Tommy came back and started working again.

I also need to mention this was all in Sweden where work rules and laws were more lenient toward people being away for a period of time but still keeping their jobs. He seemed oddly awkward when he got back, but I didn't make a big deal out of it. He stuck around for a week or so, and then he finally decided to quit, and I never saw him again. This is where things get very juicy. Sarah sent me the images of text messages she received from Tommy while she switched work, and they were all formatted in a crazy way. He would say things like how he's going to take her away from her boyfriend and how he'll end up with her in the end. She blocked him on every platform she knew he was on and filed a police report. She never heard back from Tommy again after this, thankfully. At the time, I was

on Tinder a lot. I'm an average guy and I know it. I know when someone is out of my league and I matched with a girl that was way out of my league. I almost instantly thought of this person being a bot but it wasn't a bot. She would text coherent sentences and even asked to add me on snapchat so I did. We would talk for a bit and I asked her to send a selfie and she did but you could tell something was off. The selfie was taken of a photo off a computer and you could tell. I knew it was a catfish at this point and it wasn't hard to figure out that it was Tommy. It became fairly obvious with how much this girl knew about me without me telling her and then she mentioned she was friends with Tommy who had told her about me and yada yada. It was all BS. Tommy was catfishing me through this girl's Tinder profile and it was

obvious. The most ominous part about this whole story is that I was tasked with cleaning out Tommy's work computer and reinstalling it so it would be fresh for a new starter. While I was doing that, I did have a peek around his files to see if there was anything personal. I know it's not right, but I couldn't resist. I noticed his recycle bin wasn't emptied and so I go in there and I have a look. I see he's deleted a lot of personal folders and notes, images, etc. and he had deleted all of those when he was back for that one week at work after being away for a long time. He literally just came back to empty his stuff. As I looked through his personal files, I found notes about how he was going to kill me and Sarah, how he was

jealous of me, and he had images of Sarah's boyfriend saved he had images of other girls saved he had pre-written notes that were written as if he were planning to send them out in the future to Sarah it was absolutely insane I saved all of it on an external USB drive and never told anyone about it that is very intense that's scary it's absolutely terrifying to be friends with someone and them to have to think you know somebody and then to find out they're planning to kill you i would have some major trust issues after that and the fact that sarah i mean doesn't know anything about it this whole thing was messed up i mean i'm glad nothing actually came of it and goodness you know everyone was fine in the end but definitely spooky shady scary Definitely spooky, shady, scary. All of the above. All the things.
