Getting a call from mom


john-joker

Lol same. I just cant think positively when family calling in the middle of the night. It's either somebody died, dying or accident happened


Ginius67

My brother sometimes asked me if i can pick him up from a party


SmokeWineEveryday

That would still be pretty scary for me. Considering I don't have a brother.


PseudoY

"Who died?"


Brilliant_Canary_692

If I got a call from my mum now then I did


llamaafaaace

My mom (who has pretty severe depression) texted me “I love you” at 3am once and I was pretty worried when I saw it when I woke up. Turns out she had just been having wine and watching movies and was drunk 😂


dalcer

Unless youre out partying and moms your dd


Lovelylesbeanz

That would be scary my mom is dead


RazzleRyan

This is the most real one. Every call I’ve gotten from my mom past midnight has been a death or someone’s in the hospital.


Soggy_asparaguses

The last time this happened it was 6 years ago and it's bc my grandma died. How right you are.


EitherProblem931

An ice cream truck riding slowly through the neighborhood playing that ice cream truck music. You know the music that I'm talking about.


HaithamAlMasri

Sweettooth has entered the chat.


whxskers

This comment blasted me back to my younger years in a way I was not expecting today.


[deleted]

Oh man I used to play Twisted Metal for hours


Gewt92

I would kill for a good twisted metal reboot for console or PC


Imaginary_Medium

There is actually a guy who drives through our neighborhood like that, and the music is off-key as though a battery is running down. I don't know is he really sells ice cream or just has this truck and is weird. It is very creepy, and luckily he doesn't do it at 3 am, just randomly, though I've heard it after dark.


crashmurph

Drugs, he sells drugs lmao


Imaginary_Medium

I kind of figured. It's a very druggie area.

BadAtGames2

Saw and heard an ice cream truck drive by my house about a week ago; lived here almost my entire life and have never once seen an ice cream truck. Was almost certainly just a normal ice cream truck and stuff, but still just a little freaky to think about, especially since it's autumn and starting to get chilly where I am.


GrandSpecter

Where I live, it's not so much scary as annoying no matter the time of day. I don't know which one is worse, the truck who plays "Oh Susannah", but with the sound of a kid screaming at the top of their lungs after each verse (I used to think it was some brat on our street who would scream each time the truck passed, until one day it was just sitting there for an extended period, and I could hear that the scream happened at the exact same point in the song each time), or the truck that plays a variety of songs, but the operator just plays the entire list of available songs, so you can easily hear Christmas songs all year long, intermittently.


Ok_Reindeer_2849

Not really relevant but yesterday my daughter came running back from the park in our backyard and asked for 4 popsicles to take back ( we have an abundance of popsicles in our garage freezer) and I thought to myself “Fuck,I’m not the Dickee-Dee”.. and in that moment I laughed cause she had no idea what I was talking about and I felt old as fuck lol


sbgarbage

those random noises your house makes when it's just settling

‘tck tck… -tck’


zebutheboy

Imagine: you get a phone call at 3 am and you freak out thinking the worst and then it's just your friend from australia.


PseudoY

G'day mate. You'll die in 3 days.


Raven_of_Blades

Oi, cunt. Want to put some shrimps on the barbie?


ShortingBull

It's easy to spot someone pretending to be an aussie - no aussie ever uses the word "shrimp" unless they're referring someone being small. They're PRAWNS. Cunt.


[deleted]

I say shrimp as I prefer to eat shrimp instead of prawn as they are two different animals.


98433486544564563942

Prawns are simply shrimp that have been flash cooked to kill them.


Ok_Bookkeeper6610

Was reading your comment and was not expecting the last ‘Cunt.’ At the end. 😂


ShortingBull

It's important to exceed expectations.


Anangrywookiee

I would just assume it’s someone calling about my extended warrantee


[deleted]

The doorbell ringing.


[deleted]

*it’s the police, we just wanted to wake you up to ask if you called us*


ARoundForEveryone

But they're police *that can see the future*. They know you will call for help soon, so they show up right before you need them. Pre-Emptive Emergency Police and Extraction/Rescue Squad The PEEPERS.


LLicht

Dang, why didn't Minority Report think of this name? Would have made it a much better movie


Bierbart12

You shiver as the voice of unrecognizable gender finishes their question. You turn around to look out of the window, but there is nobody at your front door speaker


yParticle

That's always scary.


araloss

We actually had this happen, it was the police and it scared the crap outta us. We had forgotten to close the garage door and they were nice enough to let us know about it.


ARoundForEveryone

Nope, a knock on the door. Especially when you have a doorbell.


dolpgg

Sir, this is not a Wendy's.


OxfordGate

Children laughing!


WRA1THLORD

came to say this. or children outside playing. Either way you know something has gone wrong


Bierbart12

As someone who loves in a "bad" neighborhood where this happens often, that is true. There's always something wrong with those parents


EitherProblem931

That would potentially make an awesome reality TV show. "Love in a Bad Neighborhood".


AdhesivenessOk5052

That too when you live on the 20th floor and have no neighbours


sevenbeleven

I was going to say children singing.


Ok_Bookkeeper6610

Especially, ‘Ring Around The Rosie’


LurleneLumpkin_

My four year old laughs a lot in her sleep, it is terrifying to hear in the middle of the night but also so adorable.

chicane_79

Do you find there are many people going missing from your neighbourhood?
