It just seems like everyone I have talked to the past couple days has been....off. Its hard to explain.
Then there was the kitty party on the front lawn when I got home. My cats never have that many guests over. When they do have guests, they hang out in the garage or the basement. I am not sure what kind of ceremony they were doing in the front yard, but they sure ran when they saw me.
Yes, especially so. Old friends from CA, NY, Oregon, New Mexico, Germany, and England all called more or less out of the blue since the weekend.
A whole BUNCH of women suddenly winking up a storm at me on dating sites on which I have free listings but haven't contacted anyone myself in MORE than a year -- two even then joined up paid so they could e-mail me after the futile winks ran their course.
People generally a bit edgier in stores and on the street.
SERIOUSLY non-standard stuff.
I skeered. :shocked:

I actually know a girl who genuinely believes that the full moon has a significant impact on the way people behave :roll: People can be so stupid.

Well with evidence like that I'm convinced. Some random guy's mum noticed an increase in ER traffic.
Actually, this is a fairly commonly held belief, even amongst medical professionals. I've certainly heard it before.
But yeah, the facts don't totally bear it out.

All those people that voted to be a warewolf in that other thread must be out having fun right now.

Yes, I have.
Yeah, I hear you. It's a very common belief in both professions. However, as jagec pointed out (in a nice link), more rigorous studies generally do not support this view. So mentioned "confirmation bias." I think that's the real phenomenon here.
Still, dayum! ALL those old but geopraphically distant friends calling me over a four day period? I don't necessarily hear from ALL of them in any one 6 month period!
As for the women . . . Spring? <shrug> Sometimes clusters of events just happen, I guess. We are hardwired to look for connections and explanations in the events we experience. Hence, superstition.
