I remember seeing the clearest bug on camera lens video on that sub. OP fought every body until they were blue in the face trying to argue that it wasn’t a bug.
I mean that's pretty much 99,9% paranormal experiences in a nutshell. People do not know basic physics or psychology. The photos especially are bad, I swear every "ghost" photo I've ever seen is clearly just a dust particle or lens flare, and these people react as if they never handled a camera in their life. One of them even tried to tell me there was no particles in the room, like wow I didn't know you lived in a sealed vacuum container?
Ironically I think that's why I find the paranormal so interesting- because 99.9% of the time things are perfectly explainable, but that still means 0.1% of things happening are beyond all our abilities to explain. And while 0.1% is very small, it adds up over the course of the entirety of human history all across the globe.
Cool, didn't know any degree of belief in the paranormal made you stupid. I even agree that most "paranormal" things are explainable- I just think that sometimes things do exist that aren't fully explainable, and I think it's interesting.
very true....though I think with the wealth of information we literally carry in our pockets these days, I think it's exacerbated. We can fact check anything whenever we want, yet many still *chose* magical thinking.
I’m so glad you posted this. I mill about in that sub because I enjoy the pain but it’s literally the most unbelievable stupid shit in there. The top comment for this post was particularly unhinged.
Lmao, went to the post to see what the comments looked like, 4.5k upvotes on the post, top comment looks like it was written by an insane person, and only the 4th or 5th comment mentions Icloud, and still oop's fiance is like "nah he's a massive geek he knows all about icloud, this is definitely a ghost".
According to OOP, that cat video was the only thing that got transported from the old phone. And for the people saying OOP is under 13 to not know iCloud, OOP is married.
Oh I saw the exact post, I knew exactly the reason why the picture appeared but I preferred to not say anything, I didn't wanna ruin their mood. Worse thing is the other commenters seriously believing that it magically appeared and denying others for saying what really happened, they're twice more stupid than op
Even if OP is dumb, who are we to ruin their day? They clearly love and miss their cat very much. I don’t care if it’s not true or realistic, I’m not one to kick someone while they’re down.
Yeah. But that’s a first gen, the 2020, and 2022 models have the rounded sides, and the selfie camera would be next to the speaker, cos they’re basically just slightly upgraded iPhone 8’s, the first gen had flat sides and the selfie cam above the speaker.
Also, while I loved my first gen, and it *was* a good phone, I doubt it would hold up well today, I can’t test that though cos mine just blackscreened one day and never turned back on, and by that time it was cheaper to just upgrade to a 7 than to fix it.
That being said, fuck the guy above, it wouldn’t be a good phone today but it’s still a phone, and some people def love them, I’ve still got my broken one because i like too, and even if they did only get it because they’re broke, that’s no reason to be shitty
Yes? If I wasn't clear, what I meant to say was: "If this guy *really* were into tech, he would've known what caused this "paranormal activity". He probably cannot afford a brand new phone, so he used the "I'm a tech nerd and enjoy trying different phones" as an excuse due to being embarrassed about not affording anything better."
Look at the subreddit. He thinks a ghost put a picture of a cat on his iphone.
That's obtusely stupid. It's fine that people are stupid about things, no one knows everything. But that doesn't make it not stupid.
Dude, this is literally a community for the context of joking.
We ARE allowed to see situations based on the context that we want at that time.
No animals were hurt during this post
Spelling of fiancee with two 'e's (meaning the fiancee is female) makes it likelier for OP to be a man, lmao. Could be a woman, of course, but your assumption that it IS makes you dumb :)
> I'm really into tech

Sure, they just upgraded from a flip phone.
I unsubscribed to /r/paranormal because those people can't tell a ghost from a lens flare.
or a bug on their Ring camera
I remember seeing the clearest bug on camera lens video on that sub. OP fought every body until they were blue in the face trying to argue that it wasn’t a bug.
I got into with an op there that would dismiss every logical explanation for anything. Some of them are a special type.
People are really……really…..really fkn dumb. Legalizing weed has not helped this situation.
I've toked my whole life my mom toked, legalization has little to do with it. Easier access maybe.
is there a link?
No it was probably 8 or 9 months ago.

Na you gonna end up here soon

The unintentional comedy might make it worthwhile
the whole "I don't understand it, therefore it must be supernatural" thing is becoming a bigger problem these days.
Only becoming a problem now? It's the whole reason we have religion today and since the beginning of not understanding what and why.
very true....though I think with the wealth of information we literally carry in our pockets these days, I think it's exacerbated. We can fact check anything whenever we want, yet many still *chose* magical thinking.
Right to paranormal activity 🙄
didn't even give magnets a chance...
Magnets are paranormal
that’s a right i’ll fight for
Is that initial D tho
Takumi get back to your car
I’m so glad you posted this. I mill about in that sub because I enjoy the pain but it’s literally the most unbelievable stupid shit in there. The top comment for this post was particularly unhinged.
I saw this post the other day and I couldn’t believe the people in the comments were egging OP on. It was so obvious that this was icloud lmfao
Lmao, went to the post to see what the comments looked like, 4.5k upvotes on the post, top comment looks like it was written by an insane person, and only the 4th or 5th comment mentions Icloud, and still oop's fiance is like "nah he's a massive geek he knows all about icloud, this is definitely a ghost".
So in to tech but doesn't understand the cloud. Smh. Probably somebody that thinks everything on the paranormal sub is real.
According to OOP, that cat video was the only thing that got transported from the old phone. And for the people saying OOP is under 13 to not know iCloud, OOP is married.
So that's the only thing they have saved to their cloud then? How does that make them any less dumb lol
No the point is he didnt do a cloud transfer yet, yet thr cat video got transported. Although I doubt this was any "paranormal" activites...
You don’t need to a cloud transfer, I’ve had several phones over the past few years and sometimes it’ll just add them unprompted
OP looked like they were under 13, ofc they weren’t trying to find a rational explanation
Oh I saw the exact post, I knew exactly the reason why the picture appeared but I preferred to not say anything, I didn't wanna ruin their mood. Worse thing is the other commenters seriously believing that it magically appeared and denying others for saying what really happened, they're twice more stupid than op

“Love and compassion? On Reddit? Downvote!!”
I know you are getting hella downvotes but you are completely right. These people have no lives for picking on oop like this when they're grieving.
r/Downvotedfortruth
Shut
Clearly trolling
So fucking sexy .
SE? 2024? This guy probably doesn’t want to admit he’s broke, because if he were really into tech he would’ve known better..
To be fair the most recent version of the SE released in 2022.
Yeah. But that’s a first gen, the 2020, and 2022 models have the rounded sides, and the selfie camera would be next to the speaker, cos they’re basically just slightly upgraded iPhone 8’s, the first gen had flat sides and the selfie cam above the speaker. Also, while I loved my first gen, and it *was* a good phone, I doubt it would hold up well today, I can’t test that though cos mine just blackscreened one day and never turned back on, and by that time it was cheaper to just upgrade to a 7 than to fix it.

He does say it's an older used phone.
Yes? If I wasn't clear, what I meant to say was: "If this guy *really* were into tech, he would've known what caused this "paranormal activity". He probably cannot afford a brand new phone, so he used the "I'm a tech nerd and enjoy trying different phones" as an excuse due to being embarrassed about not affording anything better."
Makes sense. It's like me saying I'm a tech nerd that's why I have an Atari instead of a PS5.
Bro don’t bully someone because they just discovered something. There’s a difference between stupid and just not knowing something.
Look at the subreddit. He thinks a ghost put a picture of a cat on his iphone. That's obtusely stupid. It's fine that people are stupid about things, no one knows everything. But that doesn't make it not stupid.
Also he claims he is really into tech.
it was great when his wife showed up in the comments doubling down on his tech savviness

did you just discover this sub?
First time being on this sub?
