I have a Tracfone Nokia cellphone that occasionally dials out on its own (ususally to my brother, but I live in fear it will dial the ex-boyfriend one day) and sometimes goes to a blank screen with a single black line across the top…I just assume it’s meditating during those times. But this one takes the cake. I’m down to one minute left, so I decided to put it on the charger on my nightstand and leave it there since I can’t call out, but at least I can see what calls I’ve missed. When I get home from work I check the screen…and the whole screen is reversed. Mirror image. Completely and totally backwards. I haven’t touched it yet, except to stare at it, and it’s still like that this morning. Eventually I will try turning it off and then back on, but for now I’m leaving it alone.
All I can think is that I have slipped through some portal to another dimension and am now on the inside, looking out at my life, which would explain a lot, like that sudden, intense headache I had at work yesterday, which could have been the moment of the dimensional shift…hey, it happens like that on TV all the time, and all you get is the one bizarre clue that all is not as it should be…
If they (and you) have got picture phones, you don’t even have to ask! Plus, with the picture phone you can check for evil clothing and see if there are any agony booths in the background.
Leave the phone where it is, in the charger. Take about 5-7 steps away from it, turn and run directlt at it, as fast as you can.
A few feet away, make with your hands like you’re going to dive off a diving board, and leap right into the phone. You’ll hear a loud “zing” kind of sound, and from the outside, it will look as if your body elongates and thins out. You’ll have the sensation of diving through a wall made of lime jello, and come out back into this dimension none the worse for wear.
Oh, and ignore the lime jello on your floor, that’s a by-product, eventually it just evaporates.
To alleviate the fear of your psycho-phone automatically diailing the ex-boyfriend, remove his name from the phone book. If it still manages to randomly dial him, run. Run away as fast as you can!
It’s obvious what you have done. You have reversed the polarity of your phone.
It’s also obvious that on a message board very much like this one, somewhere, there’s a mirror image version of you with a phone that would look normal to us.
Can you take a book with plenty of clear, readable text, put it next to the phone and take a digital picture? You can present it as a good puzzle picture i.e. ‘Given that this photo has not been tampered with in any way, explain how it came to be’.
Yea, they always lie about the lime jello. I suppose it’s not so bad if you have hard wood floors, but it’s a real bitch to get out of a rug. You may have to call GhostDusters.
No. because I turned it off and turned it back on this morning and now it’s “normal” again. So either I’m trapped here, or I’ve returned…I did have another weird headache this morning…but if it happens again, that’s the first thing I’ll do.
