Random Feelings

RandolphEsq

Let us try and classify/index all those random feelings that wash over us sometimes. They leave a "Woah, that was odd" taste in the mouth. Think about it, be creative and pondersome.

To start;

- That feeling when you think you've been caught masturbating by someone entering the room but you aren't sure and then the whole conversation is awkward and your head is distracted with the question "Do they know?"

- That feeling when you type your password into your username (not realising) and then see it not in ******* form

- That feeling when you go to sit down, misjudge where the chair was but still end up in the chair and not on your ass on the floor

When you're asleep and have a dream you're falling and then wake up with a jump. Always freaks me out.

we'llallhavetea_old

that feeling of passing someone on the street and not knowing wether they'll say hello or not so you have a facial spasm and make a "hinnngggreh" sound, just as they're walking by in silence.

pikachucheeks

The feeling when you suddenly wake up from a dream, normally a bad dream, and aren't sure whether it's reality or not.

How in the name of jizz did you discover this?!

Or when you isolate a word or object from all of its usual surroundings, context, and functionality, repeat it over and over in your head, and it quickly become incredibly strange, absurd, bordering on the frightening even.

I've heard 2 explanations for that. First one is that it happens at the exact moment you go from light to deep sleep.Your muscles relax so suddenly that your brain thinks your falling.

Second one is the "5 second fall". If you don't wake up within 5 seconds,your dead !!

I like the second one better. Live life on the edge Baby, Whooohooo

personal hygiene?! ye know, the bellybutton can hoard an awful amount of fluff!

Sharpshooter

The feeling when you are almost awake in the morning and you can scroll boards with your eyelids closed and actually see it.

TestTransmission

That weird guilt feeling you get when you wake up very hungover and you are trying to remember if you did anything embarrasing/stupid/dangerous the night before.

humberklog

That split second when you realise the car keys are in the ignition just as the car door leaves your hand and just before it swings shut with a bang.

What is this word "hygiene"? I haven't even isolated or repeated it, and already it's incredibly strange, absurd, and bordering on frightening.

How about when you're stuck inside a dream, know that you want to wake up, but can't move your body, or speak. It's so bloody weird. Or the feeling of time slowing down to a crawl when you get into a confrontational or dangerous situation. It's bizarre.

Pygmalion

When you've spent ages preparing for something to find out after you finish that it's cancel, and are neither happy nor sad about it.

pikachucheeks

When you walk out of your house, close the door and suddenly jump to the conclusion that your keys aren't in your bag, even though you've put them in there less than two minutes ago...

I get that every day!

the slowing downs in dreams is horrific, its always when your running away from a knife wielding maniac and your legs just feel like bags of cement. ye wake up sweatin after that sh1t!


the feeling of accidentally swallowing your chewing gum is quite unnerving also.

Or if you're at home by yourself, night is creeping in, and you suddenly catch a glimpse of one of these terrifying bast*rds:

Yeah door handles are ****ing awful, always getting in your way, I just want to go into the next room FFS

PaulByrne'sBald

When walking up stairs and you misjudge their length assuming there is another step. The rythm you have generated walking up them is disturbed when you meet no resistence from the phantom step and your leg feels a bit odd for three or four steps after...

anniehoo

The "fuuuuuck ivve left the iron/ghd plugged in " feelin when you're halfway to work.

it never ever is though

the_cat_is_back

When you're in the lift with someone hot and you're about to fart. You try desperately not to because they'll know that it was you. Not only do you fail to hold it in, you make a little tooting noise. The shame :eek:

Happens me allll the time!
Once, in school, I was so paranoid I'd left my GHD on, I stole the keys to my dorm (we weren't allowed into them during the day) and went in to check...
On that one occasion, I actually had left the straightener on ... and burned my duvet
It had been on for three or four hours! :eek:
I'm glad I managed to turn it off before the thing exploded...

orourkeda

The feeling you get when you have the peel your oul ones potatoes

Overheal

That annoying dream you have about getting up and getting all set up for work - shower shave brushing breakfast - then the alarm goes off, and youre still in bed.

spylon

A relative gives you a birthday card, the moment of not-knowing whether to open it in front of them for fear that your eyes will betray the machinations of your miserly, weasel's brain: "Is there money inside?"

Novella

That feeling when you're driving along in the dark and there's a big puddle on the road which you don't see. You're doing about 100kmph, drive into this puddle and your car goes WHOOOOSH, water splashes onto your windscreen so you can't see a thing and for a second, you wonder if you're gonna die!

AlmightyCushion

When you wake up and think you have the day off work. That sinking feeling you get when you realise that you don't is horrible. Quite similar to the feeling you get when you wake up, check the time and see that you're early for work so you have time to lie there for a while, then you realise that you're in early today and actually woke up on time/late.

Best feeling is the opposite of the above two.

the_cat_is_back

You come back to the office from lunch break. Walk around, talk to about twenty or so people and after an hour or two go to the toilet where you look in the mirror to see a big lump of ketchup/salad cream/chocolate or whatever the fook you had for lunch at the side of your mouth for all to see. No!!

Doc

That feeling you get when your looking for your passport/ wallet / something important in your bag and you cant find it in there. You’re sure it should be in there and your mind races to all the places you could have left it or when it could have been nicked and your stomach kind of drops and you tense up. Then you open a side pocket and find it and the tension disappears like someone dumping a bucket of cold water over your head on a hot day.

Also when you're a pedestrian walking blissfully along the footpath and a car flying by soaks you :mad:

Michael McIntyre does a great bit about passports.

For the lads. That warm feeling you get as you're walking away from the toilet that you really should have given it one more shake.

Anything more then 3 shakes is a ****

Well then I'll gladly have a **** if it helps avoid that situation.

Actually even if it doesn't...

Ro: maaan!

Accidently dropping something relatively important in the toilet. Happened to me with my car key once in a friends house. Horrible feeling of "I actually have to deal with this situation right now".

You must suffer from premature ejaculation.

Burkey0

The empty feeling you get just after you've finished the last of your tea/coffee

The feeling you get when you've lost something important, and you keep checking your pockets over and over, on the off chance that it may reappear there

The nervous and tense feeling when you've got your phone's PIN wrong twice and you're really being precise about your third attempt

Your missus swiping your phone. You may not even have anything to hide, but you're always waiting with bated breath, trying to get it back

That crushing feeling when you wake up from an excellent dream and realise that it wasn't real

Hank Scorpio

the feeling you get before every exam thinking your absolutely bolloxed for it even though your actually well prepared

It's really refreshing when you wake up from a terrifying dream to discover it wasn't real though.

The relief you feel is amazing.

And after the exam - the exam postmortem, where you look back and think 'I didn't do as well as I thought', and it gets worse every day until you get your results

Hank Scorpio

another weird one, i always have a urge to read something when nature calls. i`d actually go hunting for the paper and wudent do my business until i would find it!

Pygmalion

This.

And in some cases the feeling afterward where you're fairly sure you've ****ed it up even thought you did well.

In others you feel you did excellent and then the results come out and turns out you did fairly average/bad. This is the worst

Yes, I get this especially after having a dream that I've committed some awful crime, am on the run, and have ruined my life, prospects forever.

On the subject of crime, is it just me that always feels a strange inexplicable guilt whenever walking past a member of the gardaí...even though I have nothing to hide, I feel tense, as though I could be arrested for something.

we'llallhavetea_old

No! I feel like a criminal everytime i see a guard. Especially in my car. I just assume i'm bad and highly suspect lookin.

the_cat_is_back

You're sending a text message to one of your mates bitching about someone, e.g. Is "john" bringing the new bird 2nite? God i hope not, she's a head wrecker! Send to: John...noooooo

Pygmalion

Am I the only one who doesn't mind the Gardaí, and would welcome them walking around if there happened to be some intimidating looking folk around? :P
