A lot of people in the comments said, you know, maybe he was drunk or high. I never went out for another walk.” How do you feel about that?īen: But maybe the guy just wanted to dance with the OP.Īmory: Possible. He says, “I lived in that city for six months after that night. But he keeps looking back behind him to see if the smiling, waltzing, large tiptoeing man is behind him. He was coming back my way and this time he was running.” So this guy runs off the side of the road, the OP, goes back on to like a well-lit road and and he loses the guy. I watched in horror as the distant shape of him grew larger and larger. This person continues to get closer and closer. I heard it in my own voice, and that only made me more afraid. What came out was just, what the fu…” And they write, “regardless of whether or not humans can smell fear, they can certainly hear it. What I meant to ask was, what the F do you want in an angry, commanding tone. I blurted out the first thing that came to mind. Except he was moving very, very quickly." And the OP writes, “I finally found my voice. He says, "He took giant, exaggerated tiptoed steps as if he were a cartoon character sneaking up on someone. But then all of a sudden he's headed back towards this guy, or I'm sorry, gal, whoever blue_tidal is. Between the eyes and the smile, I decided to cross the street before he danced any closer." So, you know, this kind of goes on for probably what felt like hours, but was really just a couple minutes where he stops dancing and then all of a sudden he starts dancing again or it looks like he's turning around. His mouth was formed in a painfully wide cartoon of a smile. His eyes were open, wide and wild, head tilted back slightly, looking off at the sky. He danced closer still until I could make out his face. So he says, "This man, he was very tall and lanky and wearing an old suit. Just moving forward.īen: Of all the kinds of music, waltzes are the creepiest.īen: Is that 3, whatever, 6-3 3-6 to 3-8 time?Īmory: Yep. So, you know, the like classic one, two, three. I guess you could say he was dance-walking, headed straight for me.” I can picture this exactly. It was a strange dance, similar to a waltz, but he finished each box with an odd forward stride. “At the far end of the street on my side was the silhouette of a man dancing. “When I first noticed him,” the person writes. They were near a big park and they cut down this side street to loop back to their apartment. But all of that changed in just a few minutes one evening.” So they're walking down a side street. Why are all you people walking around at night? Just stop it.īen: You’re supposed to be Netflix-ing and chilling.Īmory: So this person says, “I always used to joke with my roommate that even the drug dealers in this particular city were polite. city at the time that this happened.Īmory: Yeah. This person says they were living in a major U.S. The non-evil version of the smiling man is Golden Retriever Ben. It was posted by a user blue_tidal and the title is “The Smiling Man.” What does that conjure up for you, Ben?Īmory: Yeah it’s true.
Are you familiar with this one?Īmory: Yeah. So this was posted seven years ago on a subreddit called LetsNotMeet. Woo woo, woo, woo! Let's see if I can just read what I wrote down.īen: In the dark now that I have turned the lights out?Īmory: In the dark. The sugar’s now coursing through my veins, I'm ready to Snacktime.īen: Get it out there, man. Fear Has Never Been So Sweet,” very similar to M&M-like candy. So I have the rainbow sour belts as they are generically called.īen: And I have the “All Treats, No Tricks, Endless Thread Stories Will Chill Your Bones. You have Endless Thread candy from 2019.īen: Which I just spilled all over the studio.Īmory: Oh God. music, sound effects, tone) are harder to translate to text.īen Brock Johnson: What's your snack? You and I have very similar snacks today.Īmory Sivertson: They have similar packaging.īen: They're similarly difficult to open.Īmory: Yeah, I've got Endless Thread candy from 2018.
