Ever had a moment that origionated from some mundane thing that just made you stop and go "... The [censored]?"

For example, down town with my friends one day, we had some random women precede to shove prayer cards in our hands. Being teens, this got us talking about how silly what she was doing was, throwing them away and the like. Sacrilegious as we are, one of my friends got the idea to burn his card using his lighter. He proceeded to try and get the thing to light, multiple times. His lighter would spark but wouldn't start. This freaked us out. It was real weird, and sort of a, "Just a coincidence..... *look at sky with raised eyebrow*" moments.

Coincidence, though. He probably just ran out.

Anyway, to the others.

While jogging I watched guy on a motorcycle get t-boned by a civic once. There was a couple seconds of stunned 'what the hell' on my part, then I ran over to the guy. He turned out to be fine (which was amazing, because he flew like fifteen feet), and actually stood up, took his helmet off, and asked me -

"Dude, you got a cell I can call the hospital with?"

(I'm wearing nothing but jogging shorts with no pockets) "No, sorry... uh, does anything hurt? I've got first aid training..."

"No it's alright dude, I think I'm fine. Maybe I don't need to call the hospital."

Then the lady (of course) who hit him showed up, and started crying and apologizing. I waited a few moments while they talked, then just kept jogging with a O_o on my face.

Senior prank last year.

Okay, so I'm one of those people who get to school early for whatever reason. It's the last day for seniors and they got "class of 07" and all that junk written on the main entrance sidewalk and walls in chalk.

It's about 7 when I'm getting there and there's a loud ruckus is the commons (lunch room).

By the time I get there...

Wham-smash!

Sledge hammer + watermelons = splat

Yeah, it was pretty wild. Didn't think that watermelons could explode like that.

Couple days ago when I was driving to Steven's Point to pick up my books, decided to take the Amish roads rather than the main highway because they cut around all the traffic. I start coming up on the L-turn in the road and while I'm paying attention to my spedometer, I see a guy come out of the tree on the left side of the road waving his arms at me like he was crazy.

I barely had any time to react when his dog bolted out of the underbrush ahead of him and into the road. I was going too fast for the dog to have been able to get in front of me anyway, but the natural response was to stomp on the brakes.

Brake pads locked, and I skidded from 65 to 0 in a good four seconds. Found out when you do that, your skid-marks on the road will actually smoke.

Me and the dog's owner were both O_O, the dog was too interested in sniffing the tire tracks to care about either of us.

So I'm at this resteraunt with my aunt and her new boyfriend. Everything is going fine, until the waitress comes and gives us our menus. My aunt proceeds to start reading whatever sounds good, out loud, with the prices. After the waitress comes back he asks my aunt to repeat a few of the items, and I jokingly say "Hey Lis, I think he can read the menu."

She just mouths "He can't"

My original reaction was O.O Which then turned into -_-;;

That's the power of helmet.

Over the summer, a buddy of mine and I were very, very bored. Neither of us had work the next day (we worked at the same shop, actually), and we wanted something to do. So, we grab out surfboards, some glow-stick, and head out surfing late at night Or rather, very early in the morning.

As we're walking over the access, we see 3 or 4 guys -- mid 20's -- come sprinting over the dunes near us. As they pass, the first one yells, "Crash Bandicoot is after us!". The second guy runs by without saying anything, and the third one screams, "We need more heroin!".

O_o indeed, my good sir.

My biggest O_O moment happened a few days after one of my cats died. Got hit by a car. But, it's around 3 in the morning, when he used to want back in after a night out, and I start hearing the cat howling. I found my other cat, and she wasn't doing it. It's coming from outside, just outside the door. But there's no cat out there.

And while I could dismiss it as a random Tom, it just sounds way to eerily like my cat.

I still hear that cat howl from time to time. It's like he haunting the back door.

And there was one time when I saw a man in a top hat standing in my basement for about a second. He just vanished when I tried to get a good look. Never saw him again.

Well great, now I won't be able to sleep tonight. There are just so many dead pets that might try and haunt my house...
