    When I was young and I was walking into a dark room I used to say “I know you’re in there” because i was afraid there was something hiding and I thought the might revel themselves early if they throught the jig was up.

      I did something similar. I figured that whatever was in there could read my mind so I imagined doing the most heinous violent acts on whatever was in there. I thought that it would scare whatever was in there away from me.

      eventually I started doing it anytime I was scared or nervous.

      now I’m a psychopath and nothing scares me, because I’ll just kill whatever scares me.

      thanks mild childhood trauma!

    I went through a period when i was a (pre)teenager where i thought it was funny to give the middle finger to the ceiling/corners of empty rooms in case there was a hidden camera there.
