Things that go bump in the night

To predicate this, I should establish that I work night shift, and as such I am basically nocturnal. The following incident occurred at approximately 3AM in my timezone.

So, my wife having justifiably banned me from stovetop cooking after I almost set the house on fire the other day attempting to make myself some Mac-n'-Cheese, I set off to Walmart an hour ago to find myself a tasty oven bake-able dinner.

Now, I freely understand that anyone, including myself, that is awake at this hour is up to no good. But I never could have expected that, while entering the men's restroom to answer the call of nature, that I would happen upon an enormously fat woman and a male Walmart employee, busily answering the other call of nature.

So let's have it, capsuleers of New Eden. What horrors have you stumbled upon, and at what time of night?

Fixed your title for you.

On topic I've been that employee, although the young lady in question was rather attractive with curves in all the right places. Night shift in a petrol station is boring as hell.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Since we started on a particular theme, I'll continue on that, with two stories.

Was at a bar in the CBD of Sydney a few years back and a young couple were humping at the poker machine in the corner, while playing the machine. The girl was in front of the guy with her skirt hitched up and they were going at it pretty good. The bar was full, but no one said anything.

Other time I'd been flirting with this girl at a nightclub for a few weeks. Nothing serious. Just mucking around really. We were both drunk together one night and things got the better of us, so we left the club and were headed to the tennis courts out the back (as you do). We didn't make it that far. She pulled me into this garden and next thing we were on the ground. All of a sudden there were bright lights on us. I looked up only to see that the garden we were in was right in the middle of the roundabout at the back exit of the carpark (this one). It was a little embarassing.

One evening I decided to play Amnesia: The Dark Descent. No need to explain further on.

Music festival in Denmark maby 10 years ago, middel of the night,got dragged off under the main stage with a big grin on my face,
anyway about an hour or so later ****ing guard dogs came looking for us...unleashed guard dogs.
We could hear them running around on the stage stopping and barking whenever they were above us,
being keenly aware that we had just put considerable effort into getting sweaty and such we nearly panicked , thankfully...tequila!
We drank the liquid bravery and legged it!

i foubnd out after she worked theree and knew about the dogsStraight

I had my ass kicked after I forgot the stove was heating cooking oil for "popcorn shrimp" (omgawd, tasty Asian food). I'm basically not allowed to cook anymore. Basically she made me literally cry over that mistake and I never worried again about food. worked out for me lol

Thank God someone has a non-sex story. I was trying to keep some decorum and everything, but that went out the window pretty quickly.

Shhhh, we're trying to dispel the myth about all Eve players being 40 year old virgin neckbeards residing in basements or sheds across the world.

So we were at a large festival, strolling through the camping ground at night while peacefully drinking beer, when we suddenly heard that eponymous loud nocturnal bump, followed by deep guttural screams.
More bumps followed, while the screaming got louder- suddenly two metal-heads were passing us by, running like hell.
After them came the third metal-head, a huge, bearlike man (maybe my memory is fuzzy from booze and awesomeness) screaming like a madman and trying to catch the first two. Pure murder in his eyes.
It was pretty dark, so we didn't really see anything more, but when he rushed past us, we smelled the stench of chloride and human excrement. The big guy left a trail of scat and TP on the ground.
Later it became clear that his two friends thought it funny to tip over the chemical toilet while he was taking a dump.
We stood silently and in awe, and a good while later my friend whispered: "Nature....is beautiful...."

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I clearly remember the last night I didn't wake up alone in my bed.

The horror ... never again!

i can remember several incidents that super creeped me out. but i'll start with this one. i was living in this house with my, at the time, boyfriend and his roomate. they worked overnights so i was home by myself. i was laying on the couch watching television and i passed out. i woke up around 3:30am to hissing noises. the roomate had two cats and both of them were at the window, backs arched and hair sticking up and hissing like crazy. and their heads were slowly tracking to the right. this went on until their heads were tracking along the wall inside the house!

i nearly peed myself. because i already had to go and that creeped me out right to the core. lol

oo reading this.. i do remember one thing..

When i was at uni i was visiting home to my parents, for a holiday... We had a family get together and the entire clan would come and you know, celebrate, drink etc as you do.

And i remember my niece who was around 5 year old who would at times just stop what she is doing and stare into this particular flight of stairs.. at one point she jsut spoke.. hi are you ok facing the stairs.. it creeped me out big time..

*im typing this recalling the memory and i am shuddering*

What I need most.. is a day between Saturday and Sunday...

I remember this one night me and a buddy were in the car and two guys held us up ... on second thought I don't think I can tell that story on this forum.

Another night I was out with a couple friends and we had just rolled this huge ...


Hmm. Nevermind.

On this episode of: "Tales from WalMart", our hero encounters borderline child abuse.

So, I was standing in line at the checkout. The time was about 8 AM this morning. Ahead of me, a couple of people behind the person currently checking out, is... let's call her Redneck Rita.

Redneck Rita looks like nothing I have ever seen before in my life, and I lived in Alaska for ten years. (Fyi, that state is Confederate as ****, just a warning if you want to move there, it helps to be white)

She is dressed in a skirt that looks like she fashioned it from discarded lampshades, sunglasses with mother******* feathers on them, Crocs (of course), and a "Make 7Up Yours" t-shirt.

Oh and she was about 300 pounds and roughly 5'3".

But as awful as this sight was, the worst part was her kid. A four year old boy. For starters he had no freaking shoes. But right when I walked up behind them he said "Maw! I finished my Coke! I wanna Monster now!"

She takes a full can of Monster out of her purse, cracks it open, and gives it to him. Shocked

Now, that stuff has a buttload of caffeine in it. I am a full grown man, 6'2" and 210 pounds, and even I don't drink those in one sitting.

But that kid polished it off before they even got to the front of the line.

Well, that's the point of the thread after all, so I must ask.

Things like what?

Well, couple of weeks ago the oiler came back down to the engineroom quite upset. Seems he walked by a car and saw some dude had his head buried in another dudes crotch... you just can't unsee stuff like that! Pirate

Its mostly car sex, but sometimes it migrates to whatever nook and cranny they can find. Not so much after 9/11 though, and all the extra security measures.

Also catch folks from time to time who are unable or unwilling, for whatever reason (mostly alcohol) to make it to the restroom. I guess any old place will do....Sad


I work in the engineroom, so fortunately I don't have to deal with passenger issues too often. The deck crew has way better stories than I!
