Thread: RCs failing in reality?

this happened to me a few weeks ago..just thought itd interesting to know if anyone else had this..just for fun

but I awoke in the night..which is unusual for me...and i looked at my digital clock and it had 0 numbers..pitch black.

i went to hit my lamp switch and it didnt work

was i dreaming? i went to check where my lamp and clock were plugged in and everything was fine...i check my room light too and that was busted too

luckily...my fone worked....and the breathing RC passed....so i worked out it wasnt a dream

but the next morning I found out we'd had a housewide blackout

lucky i didnt try to fly out a window

anyone else got anything like this to share???

Something similar's happened to me too. I woke up in the middle of the night and looked at my digital clock, and the digits were flashing. This kinda freaked me out, but I did another RC and I wasn't dreaming. We'd had a brief powercut in the night, and the clock stops at when the power went out, so the time was wrong too.

This is why we always, always do a physical reality check.

No, we always, ALWAYS do multiple checks.

Luckily that's never happened to me, but I've always made sure I used a variety of checks at once.

Ah, that's great. xD

But yeah. Nose RC never fails. Unless you're breathing out of your mouth.

Actually the exact OPPOSITE of that happened to me;

I suspected that I was Dreaming ( I was) but had a little trouble concluding it. I checked my lamp if it worked; it didn't, all other lights in the house were dead too; I figured we had a power out in our house, but the strangest thing was that I heard the PC's fan running while the screen was black and turned off.
